Summary

Roi Ravhon path to tech started in the Israeli military, like many other founders in Israel. In fact, the very first introduction he had to computers was when he joined the services. It was a great experience, that taught him everything he knows. This is a common story with founders in the area, as I've noticed from other interviews I've done. He lives in Tel Aviv, and he is a big fan of music, sports, and running his company. In his previous role at Logz.io, Roi and his team spent large sums of money for cloud providers and services. The finance team quickly got wind of these costs, and started asking questions, appropriately. Roi found out that he didn't have answers to the questions, and there wasn't tooling out there that helped him. This is the creation story of Finout.
