Free cloud savings audit
Find $300+/year in savings—or pay nothing.
- Audit guarantee: Secure, read-only review of one cloud you choose (AWS, Azure, or GCP)—not OpenAI/Anthropic API keys. If we cannot identify at least $300/year in realistic cloud savings, follow-up work costs you nothing.
- Read the process below, then request your audit—or jump straight to the form.
- This free audit covers one cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP). For OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini spend, use AI Cost Management in-product (self-serve connect)—it is not part of the free cloud audit guarantee.
Audit process
What happens after you request
A secure, read-only review of one cloud you choose—AWS, Azure, or GCP. Here is the path from request to findings to optional product onboarding. OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini API spend is not in this free audit—connect those later under AI Cost Management.
Guarantee: Guarantee: if we cannot find at least $300/year in realistic savings, you pay nothing for follow-up work.
Step 1
Request the audit
Share your company, monthly cloud spend band (AWS, Azure, or GCP—whichever you use), and what hurts most. We reply within one business day with a secure next step.
Step 2
Grant read-only access to one cloud
Connect whichever cloud you want reviewed—you only need one. AWS: read-only IAM role or user. Azure: service principal with Reader + Cost Management Reader. GCP: service account with Viewer + BigQuery Data Viewer on billing export. No write access for the audit.
Step 3
We review that cloud
AWS: Cost Explorer, anomalies, idle EC2/EBS, RDS, NAT/EIP/ALB waste. Azure: Cost Management, idle VMs, unattached disks, unused public IPs. GCP: BigQuery billing export, stopped VMs, unattached disks, reserved static IPs, old snapshots. We focus on the provider you connected.
Step 4
You get a clear deliverable
Top 5 actions with estimated savings in your currency, confidence (high/medium), and suggested owners (team / environment).
Step 5
Guarantee check
If we cannot show a realistic path to the promised annual savings threshold for your market, follow-up work costs you nothing.
Step 6
Optional: track fixes in SpendPilot
Move findings into the action tracker, assign owners, verify spend deltas, and see net profit vs your plan. Add more clouds later, or connect OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini under AI Cost Management when you want LLM waste scans too.
What we review
Native signals for the cloud you connect (we only use the tools that apply):
- AWS Cost Explorer30/90-day spend by service; top growing costs
- Azure Cost ManagementSubscription MTD spend by service
- GCP BigQuery billing exportProject MTD spend by service; anomaly baseline
- Cost Anomaly DetectionOpen AWS anomalies and estimated impact
- Trusted AdvisorIdle LBs, EIPs, underused EBS (Business+)
- Compute OptimizerOverprovisioned EC2 / EBS / Lambda
- AWS EC2 & storageStopped instances, unattached volumes, old snapshots, idle NAT
- Azure compute & disksIdle VMs, unattached managed disks, unused public IPs
- GCP Compute & SQLStopped GCE, unattached PDs, reserved IPs, old snapshots, stopped Cloud SQL
- RDS / ElastiCacheLow-utilization downsize candidates
Safety rules
- ·We never delete, stop, or resize resources during the audit.
- ·We prefer non-production findings first when possible.
- ·Assumptions are documented (e.g. storage type changes).
