Over $600B will be spent on cloud this year and engineers don’t have a checkout screen!
Infracost shifts cloud costs left and makes FinOps proactive. It sits in the engineering workflow (CI/CD), and shows the cost impact of code changes (IaC) before the code is shipped to production. This catches costly mistakes before any money has been spent. It also checks to ensure all resources are tagged with your tagging policy, and runs checks on the code against our FinOps policy packs, ensuring best practices are followed (e.g. gp2 volumes should be gp3).
We are a funded, early stage, ten-person company working in Europe and US. We're backed by Y Combinator and Sequoia Capital - Silicon Valley’s top investors.
