For FinOps & Cost Engineers

Find your hidden AWS costs

Automated cost checks that surface idle resources, oversized instances, missing reservations, unattached EBS volumes, and storage waste. Actual savings depend on your account — we report what we find, you decide what to delete.

Dedicated Cost Pillar

Idle EC2, oversized RDS, unused EBS, orphaned load balancers, idle NAT gateways, gp2→gp3 conversions, missing Savings Plans, untagged owner-less spend, and more. Each finding shows estimated monthly savings and how much effort the fix takes.

Savings Trend Tracking

Track cost waste over time. See whether your team is actually fixing findings and how much you've saved month-over-month.

Right-Sizing Recommendations

EC2, RDS, Lambda, DynamoDB, and ElastiCache right-sizing based on actual usage metrics. Not guesses — real CloudWatch data over 14 days.

Cost Intelligence

Not just findings — an answer to “why is the bill this high?”

On Pro and up, the cost pillar is wrapped in an analysis layer that breaks spend down, ranks the fixes, and watches for abuse. The free Starter tier shows the headline cost number; everything below unlocks with Cost Intelligence.

Where your AWS spend goes

Pro and up

A ranked breakdown of cost by service and resource — including AI / Bedrock usage — so you can see what is actually driving the bill instead of guessing from Cost Explorer.

Ranked savings & quick wins

Pro and up

Cost findings sorted by estimated monthly savings and remediation effort (low / medium / high), so the cheapest, most reversible cleanups float to the top.

Spend-spike & LLMjacking detection

Pro and up

CloudArq flags sudden spend spikes and the AI-usage patterns consistent with LLMjacking, each paired with the fix to investigate or shut it down.

Real-time alerts + org rollup

Max

On Max, spend-spike and AI-abuse detections fire as near-real-time alerts, and Organization rolls cost up across every connected AWS account in your fleet.
