Alta needed a transactable Google Cloud Marketplace path for its AI and technology spend management platform without pulling its product team off core forecasting work, while also helping finance and IT leaders understand fast-growing AI costs, usage, ownership, and ROI.
Reported impact
Alta launched a fully transactable Google Cloud Marketplace listing in four weeks instead of the typical eight-plus, avoided pulling 125 engineering hours and 60 project management hours away from its roadmap, enabled buyers to use existing Google Cloud credits, and extended its Gemini-powered platform for cost savings, forecasting, and executive reporting.
Alta uses Google Cloud to package both its Gemini-powered spend intelligence product and a fully transactable marketplace buying flow. Alta's core platform brings SaaS, cloud, hardware, and AI investment data into one system of record so finance and IT leaders can track cost, usage, ownership, and ROI in one place. Gemini supplies the intelligence layer that learns how an organization operates and turns that context into cost-saving guidance, more accurate forecasts, and board-ready summaries. To sell the product through Google Cloud Marketplace, Premier Cloud built an automated checkout service on Cloud Run that processes orders in the background and calls Google Partner Procurement APIs as the transaction bridge. Cloud SQL stores customer order records, while Cloud Pub/Sub sends plan event notifications so buyers can complete purchases online with existing Google Cloud credits and start using the software quickly.
Technology-spend, usage, ownership, and ROI data from customers' SaaS, cloud, hardware, and AI environments feeds Alta's platform, where Gemini generates forecasts, savings guidance, and board-ready summaries. When a buyer purchases through Google Cloud Marketplace, the checkout service running on Cloud Run calls Google Partner Procurement APIs, writes order records to Cloud SQL, and uses Cloud Pub/Sub to trigger plan-change notifications and onboarding actions.

Premier Cloud brought Alta live in four weeks, saving 125 developer hours and 60 project management hours.
Premier Cloud built an automated digital checkout counter. It set up the system on Cloud Run, which processes orders automatically in the background without needing manual server work.
The system connects directly to Google Partner Procurement APIs, serving as a transaction bridge that enables enterprise buyers to purchase Alta's SaaS platform using their pre-committed Google Cloud credits.
