What every Finance leader needs to know about DoIT's Flexsave model
DoIT's Flexsave runs on legacy inventory AWS is phasing out. You can't build a board-ready forecast on savings with an unknown expiry date. Cloud Capital delivers durable savings - 100% in your own accounts, with full transparency.
DoiT
Flexsave relies on legacy inventory AWS is phasing out.
Native delegated access only. No account shuffling, no pooling, total transparency.
Cloud Capital helps Finance and Engineering teams cut waste, lower cloud costs, and forecast spend with confidence.
Compliance
Savings Built on Borrowed Time
DoiT's Flexsave works by moving vendor-owned AWS accounts into your Org, applying their RIs/SPs, then pulling them out later.
AWS updated its RI and SP rules in June 2025. DoIT's model runs on legacy inventory that's counting down.
With DoIT, your savings run out on a future date that you may not have visiblity into. With us, they don't.
Ownership & Control
Hidden Ownership = Zero Control
With Flexsave, the commitments legally belong to DoiT. You're effectively renting temporary discounts.
Cloud Capital puts commitments directly in your account so you maintain full visibility and control.
With DoiT, you don't own your commitments. If they pull accounts, your "savings" vanish overnight. With us, you stay in control.
Contract
A Model You Can't Plan Around
AWS leadership confirmed that as of June 2025, new RI/SPs must be used by the intended end customer and its affiliates. If they are sharing with end customers that are not affiliates then it would be in violation of the policy.
DoIT savings are no-longer a long-term solution. You can't forecast around what you can't see.
It's your name on the AWS bill. Build on durable savings, not expiring exceptions.
Risk
Transparency vs Black Box
Customers report "mystery accounts" appearing in their Orgs with no workloads then disappearing as discounts shift.
DoiT offers limited transparency about where commitments are purchased or who legally owns them. Cloud Capital provides full visibility: every discount, every commitment, every forecast.
You deserve to know exactly where your savings come from. With us, you do.
It used to be standard. As of June 2025, AWS restricted sub-account transfers. Today's "clever" runs on an expiring exception.
Look for mystery accounts, disappearing discounts, and limited transparency about who owns your commitments. If that sounds familiar, ask hard questions.
AWS has stated that the legacy exceptions that DoIT relies on today will eventually expire. Cloud Capital relies on no such exceptions.
Every discount sits in your account, under your entity. No pooled commitments, no shared accounts, no vendor dependencies.
DoiT's Flexsave relies on a banned practice that AWS has publicly stated violates their Terms, permitted only by a legacy exception that won't last forever. That doesn't inspire confidence.
