Nobody plans to overspend on cloud resources.

But it sneaks in.

A few extra instances for “resilience.”
A pre-prod cluster that runs 24/7.
A fat load balancer that never gets traffic.

These seem like good calls—until you realize they’re adding up across accounts, regions, and teams.

That’s over-provisioning. And it’s probably draining your cloud budget right now.

It’s Quiet—and That’s the Problem

Over-provisioned resources don’t trigger any alerts.
They don’t throw errors or bring down pipelines.
They just sit, silently consuming—and costing.

By the time Finance raises a red flag, the damage is done.

Manual tracking, usage reports, and cleanup scripts can’t keep up. You need real-time insights—before cost spirals out of control.
