## Found, explained, handed over.

Findings with a dollar figure attached, idle, oversized, orphaned, unscheduled and undiscounted spend.

- 01. Detect — ZopNight checks this automatically across Azure, with read-only access to the account.
- 02. Explain — Every finding says exactly what to change: Move traffic analytics to a longer processing interval. Where the saving can be proven it is priced; where it cannot, the finding says so.
- 03. Fix — The finding opens with the change already spelled out, so the fix is one ticket, not an investigation.
