What this looks like in practice.

Cloud cost scanner

The challenge
Teams were paying every month for AWS resources nobody remembered creating.
What was built
A scanner that checks every AWS region in seconds using read-only access – finding unattached volumes, idle IP addresses, unused NAT gateways, empty load balancers, old snapshots and logs that never expire.
The result
A clear list of waste and what each item costs per month – without any risk to live systems.

Questions

Cloud Cost Optimisation: your questions answered.

Is the audit safe?

Yes. The scan only needs read-only access – it can't change or delete anything in your account.

How much could I save?

It depends on your account. The report shows the estimated monthly cost of every finding, so you can see exactly what's possible.

What do you need from me?

Read-only access to your AWS account. We'll help you set it up in a few minutes.

Will you delete anything automatically?

Never. Nothing is removed without your approval.
