+## Billing Export Fields Expansion in Unified Explore
+
+We’ve expanded our billing data capabilities across all three cloud providers: AWS, GCP, and Azure by exposing all standard billing export fields directly in Unified Explore.
+
+These fields allow for deeper visibility, granular filtering, and improved analysis of cloud spend across providers.
+
+Managing cloud costs effectively requires access to detailed and accurate data. By exposing native billing export fields in Unified Explore, you can:
+
+- Filter and group data using familiar cloud-native terms
+
+- Perform cost attribution with greater precision
+
+- Simplify audits, budgeting, and forecasting
+
+### What’s Included
+
+#### AWS
+
+All standard fields from AWS Cost and Usage Reports (CUR) are now available.
+
+Example fields: lineItem/UsageAccountId, lineItem/UsageType, product/instanceType, lineItem/UnblendedCost, and more.

+
+### Unified FOCUS Schema Mapping
+
+Unified Explore now supports billing export fields aligned with the [FOCUS v1.1 Specification](https://focus.finops.org/focus-specification/v1-1/). This brings consistency across cloud billing data, enabling standardized cost analysis and easier comparison across providers.
+
+#### What is FOCUS?
+
+FOCUS (FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification) is a vendor-neutral schema that defines a standard format for cloud billing data. It provides a consistent data structure across AWS, GCP, and Azure, simplifying multi-cloud cost management.
