Every finding is a number, not a hunch.

The scan runs real policies against your live resources and prices each finding with real AWS rates, so the report reads in dollars per month, not in advice.

30+ policies across the places waste hides

Cloud Custodian policies sweep the classes of waste that show up in almost every account: storage left behind, instances a size too big, and infrastructure nothing uses anymore.

We don't guess prices

Every dollar figure comes from the real AWS Pricing API for your region, with every cost component included: base, storage, IOPS, data transfer. Usage-based findings extrapolate honestly: seven days of CloudWatch metrics, normalized to a month.

  • Region-specific rates from the AWS Pricing API
  • All cost components summed, no base-rate-only estimates
  • 7-day usage windows normalized to monthly, stated as such

Guided remediation, finding by finding

A finding you can't act on is trivia. Each policy comes with a guided walkthrough (verify the resource, decide, and track what you did) plus step-by-step AWS Console tutorials with screenshots for the fix itself.

  • Policy-by-policy walkthroughs with resource verification
  • Decision tracking: fixed, deferred, or dismissed, with a record
  • Step-by-step remediation guides for the AWS Console
Walkthrough step: S3 lifecycle recommendation with affected resources listed for verification

Intentional resources stay out of the report

That oversized instance is load-tested for Black Friday? Mark it exempt with a reason, and it stops reappearing in every scan, so the report stays a to-do list, not a nag.

  • Per-resource exemptions with recorded reasons
  • Exempted resources excluded from totals, not hidden
Exemption cards: a region and a finding exempted with recorded reasons and an expiration date

Once the waste is out, the platform keeps going.
