Cost optimization / Platform preview
Unused resources
Find what is costing money without doing work.
Idle NAT gateways, unattached EBS volumes, RDS instances with no connections, load balancers without targets. 31 checks find what you can remove, stop, or release, and each finding shows the evidence and the monthly cost behind it.

Cost optimization / Platform preview
Resource efficiency
Make the resources you keep work harder.
Rightsize low-utilization instances, move to Graviton and gp3, schedule Redshift pauses, and catch RDS engines that are running up extended support charges. 38 checks compare what you run with what you could run, with savings where AWS or CloudBurn has the evidence.

Cost optimization / Platform preview
Commitment savings
Stop paying On-Demand rates for steady workloads.
Find RDS, Redshift, and ElastiCache capacity that has run On-Demand for months without reserved coverage, Savings Plans purchases AWS recommends for your usage, and EC2 reservations about to expire. Weigh the savings before you commit.

Cost optimization / Platform preview
Cost Governance
Check the controls around your AWS spending.
Catch AWS Budgets that are over their limit or forecast to break it, accounts without Budgets or Cost Anomaly Detection, and resources without the tags you need to allocate spend.

Cost optimization / Platform preview
Check the evidence before you change anything.
Open any finding to see the resource, the check that flagged it, the metrics behind it, and what it costs each month. Remediation commands are read-only examples. CloudBurn never runs them in your account.

Before you
get started
What can I use today?
CloudBurn Open Source is available now. Install the CLI to check Terraform and CloudFormation for costly patterns and run discovery against live AWS resources. The free, individual AWS calculators are also available on this site.
What does the Platform add to the open-source CLI?
CloudBurn Platform adds a shared workspace, managed scans of connected AWS accounts, visual findings and scan history, a combined AWS pricing calculator, and GitHub pull-request cost reports. The underlying open-source rules remain available to run yourself.
What access does CloudBurn need to my AWS account?
Local IaC policy checks do not need AWS credentials. Live discovery needs access to inspect AWS resources. The upcoming Platform connects through a read-only role you control, with scan results stored in an S3 bucket in your AWS account.
When will CloudBurn Platform launch?
The Platform is coming soon. Subscribe for product updates and the launch announcement. Pricing will be announced at launch; signing up for updates does not start a trial or subscription to a paid plan.
