We help companies drive down AWS costs. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. Stakeholders, especially engineers, are required to spend unnecessary time manually finding underutilized or overly expensive EC2s. We believe the optimization process should be done automatically through a series of sophisticated algorithms.

At the moment, there are over 70,000 AWS EC2 prices - doing that manually just won't scale at most organizations. My background is in software engineering.

Previous to founding Usage, I worked on high-performance computing research at JP Morgan Chase and as a software engineer at a number of smaller startups.

Here's how it works: We are typically hired by the head of engineering or the CFO. Usage analyzes your cloud usage at 5-minute increments to find cost reduction opportunities. You'll see up-front savings within minutes, and then we'll continue to email you additional savings we find that you can approve or deny.

You can register for free, then charge 20% of savings.

Have you experienced any issues with managing your company or organization's AWS expenses? We'd love to hear your feedback and ideas!
