Take Control of Your AWS Infrastructure
Save 30-40% on cloud costs while gaining complete visibility and control
Your AWS bill is climbing. Nobody knows why.
Many dev teams waste 30-40% of their cloud budget on resources they don't even know they have.
No Visibility
Infrastructure managed by developers, configured ad-hoc. Nobody has the full picture.
Wasted Spend
Unused instances, over-provisioned resources, forgotten load balancers quietly draining your budget.
Bus Factor Risk
One person knows how everything works. When they leave, you're in trouble.
AWS Cost Optimization
A 4-6 week engagement that cuts costs by 30-40% and maps your entire infrastructure for complete visibility
30-40% Cost Reduction
- ✓ Identify and eliminate wasteful spending
- ✓ Right-size over-provisioned resources
- ✓ Implement cost monitoring and alerts
Complete Infrastructure Visibility
- ✓ Map every resource across all AWS accounts
- ✓ Document architecture and dependencies
- ✓ Eliminate "bus factor" and knowledge silos
How It Works
A systematic 4-6 week engagement with clear deliverables
Discovery & Baseline (Week 1)
Establish cost baseline, identify optimization opportunities, map infrastructure across all accounts, and document architecture and dependencies.
Cost Optimization (Weeks 2-3)
Shut down unused resources, right-size instances, implement Reserved Instances/Savings Plans, set up auto-scaling, configure cost monitoring and alerts.
Documentation & Knowledge Transfer (Weeks 3-4)
Complete infrastructure documentation, conduct team training session, final walkthrough and Q&A.
Savings Verification (Up to 30 Days Post-Completion)
Measure actual cost savings, verify results against baseline, invoice performance fee based on verified first-year savings.
Performance-Based Pricing
Pay for results - performance fee only applies when savings exceed your base investment

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the engagement
What's the Full Implementation add-on?
The base service ($3,000 + 30%) includes infrastructure mapping, optimization recommendations, and implementation blueprint - you handle the implementation. For an additional $3,000, we'll implement all the optimizations for you, configure monitoring/alerting, and provide hands-on team training. Most clients add this because their teams don't have the bandwidth. You can decide to add it upfront or even during the engagement.
What if savings don't meet the guarantee threshold?
If verified savings are less than $3,000/year, you don't pay the 30% performance fee. The base fee (and any add-ons) cover the audit and optimization work performed. This guarantee applies when optimizations are implemented within 30 days of delivery. In my experience with companies spending $2,000+/month on AWS, I consistently find 30-40% in cost reductions, making this situation very unlikely.
How do you verify the savings?
Savings are calculated through careful analysis of documented changes - comparing the cost of old resources versus new optimized resources. We also monitor performance metrics after right-sizing to ensure instances maintain sufficient performance under real workloads. Within 30 days of completion, we verify actual cost reductions and project to annual savings. All changes and calculations are fully documented for transparency.
When do I pay?
The base fee ($3,000, plus $3,000 if you add Full Implementation) is due at project kickoff. The performance fee (30% of verified annual savings) is due within 30 days after project completion, once we verify the actual savings.
What size AWS bill do you typically work with?
We typically work with companies spending $1,500/month and above on AWS. Below $1,500/month, it's harder to guarantee meaningful savings that justify the engagement. For really large AWS accounts, we're happy to discuss custom scoping to match your needs.
How long does the project take?
The base engagement typically takes 3 weeks (audit, recommendations, and documentation). If you add Full Implementation, it takes 5-6 weeks total (includes all the hands-on optimization work). The savings verification happens within 30 days after completion.
