Stop Overpaying for Cloud: Find What's Wasting Your Money
You're probably paying for resources you forgot existed.
Nobody tells you this when you start using AWS: your bill will grow, and you won't know why. Not because you're doing anything wrong. Cloud resources are easy to spin up and very easy to forget about.
That dev instance you launched for testing three months ago? Still running. The RDS database from a project that got shelved? Still billing you. That load balancer attached to nothing? Yep, you're paying for it.
I've looked at a lot of cloud accounts. 30-40% waste is common. Not "maybe we could optimize this" waste. Resources doing nothing, attached to nothing, serving no one.
The problem with finding waste
AWS Cost Explorer tells you what you're spending. It doesn't tell you what you're wasting. You can stare at a cost graph all day and still not know which EC2 instance is idle, which S3 bucket hasn't been accessed in 6 months, which RDS is running at 2% CPU.
To actually find waste, you'd cross-reference billing data with usage metrics, check CloudWatch for every resource, look at network traffic, review instance utilization across every service, every region. Full day's work. And by next month, new waste has already accumulated.
What if you could just ask?
That's what Liberra does. Connect your account and ask: "What's wasting my money?" You get back specific resources, not a chart. This EC2 instance has been idle for 3 weeks. This RDS is running at 1% utilization. This EBS volume is unattached.
"What's my most expensive resource?" Instant, with context. "What can I shut down safely?" It tells you what's unused and what the impact would be. One question, one answer, with everything you need to actually make a decision.
An idle m5.xlarge running 24/7 costs ~$140/month. A forgotten RDS Multi-AZ? $300+. Multiply that across a few dozen forgotten resources and it's real money. The fastest way to cut your bill isn't some reserved instance strategy. It's finding the stuff that shouldn't be running and turning it off. That used to take a day. Now it's a 30-second conversation.
