Expose uncovered items that form the baseline for purchase recommendations directly in the Cloudability UI.

Today, Cloudability calculates purchase recommendations based on covered vs. uncovered usage, but customers cannot see the specific uncovered items that drive those recommendations. Adding a coverage modal or similar view would allow users to inspect which resources are excluded, improving transparency and trust in the recommendations. This feature would align with customer expectations for visibility and make optimization workflows more actionable.
