Estimated savings are not realized savings. TurboFinOps captures a 30-day cost baseline at action-execution time and runs delayed verification jobs at 7, 14 and 30 days so you can show finance the dollars that actually disappeared from the next bill.
Estimated savings vanish in renewal conversations because nobody can prove the delta.
A FinOps platform that quotes "$1.2M saved" without verifiable per-action receipts is unfalsifiable.
You need a receipt finance accepts when challenging the cloud bill.
Every executed action records a 30-day pre-action cost baseline for the affected resource.
Verification jobs at 7, 14 and 30 days compare baseline vs observed cost and persist a savings receipt.
Regressions (cost rebounded >10%) flag automatically; inconclusive results (resource deleted, cost data missing) are surfaced not hidden.
Workflow
Run a remediation through the conflict guard. On success, the platform snapshots the trailing 30-day daily cost average for the resource.
Three delayed BullMQ jobs are queued at 7/14/30-day intervals. Bull persists the delays in Redis so they survive restarts.
At each checkpoint we re-aggregate the resource cost in the window and compute (baseline − observed) × days as verified savings.
Finance sees Verified, Pending, Regressed and Inconclusive counts plus a per-action breakdown with each checkpoint pill.

FAQ
It uses the trailing-30-day average daily cost for the same resource as a baseline. This is a simple but defensible counterfactual; the alternative — full causal modeling — adds complexity without changing the directional answer.
The verification will be marked "inconclusive" with a note that no cost rows exist in the window, rather than reporting fake $0 savings. We surface inconclusive cases instead of hiding them.
BullMQ stores delayed jobs in Redis with deterministic job IDs. They survive process restarts and run within seconds of their scheduled time.
Connect a read-only scope and surface recoverable spend in 10 minutes.
Connect one AWS, Azure or GCP scope, approve the safest savings actions, and give finance a receipt when the savings verify.
