Hey PH,
In 2025 alone, companies will waste an estimated $44.5B on unused/not-rightsized cloud infrastructure.
I built Zero Waste Cloud after watching too many companies burn huge amounts of money on AWS and GCP on literally nothing. Everyone believes they don't have anything incorrectly setup, but we still find 20-40% savings for every company.
"55% of developers say purchasing commitments are ultimately based on guesswork."*
The “aha” moment: Cloud consoles bury costs across 30+ regions and ignore CO₂ emissions entirely. So we made it dead simple:
1. Sign up and Connect your AWS or GCP account -> Under a minute
2. Get a scan of all regions in minutes -> 5-10 minutes on averages
3. See exactly what to shut down, resize, or reconfigure , and the carbon you save
What makes us different?
- Fast setup (30 seconds to start scanning)
- Full visibility across all regions/accounts at once
- Action-focused: we don’t just show dashboards, we tell you exactly what to do next
I’m most proud that this is truly plug-and-play. No consultants, no spreadsheets, no vendor lock-in.
Would love to hear your thoughts, and if you’ve ever had a surprise cloud bill… what caused it?
Those $44.5 Billion of idle cloud waste estimated for 2025 translates to roughly 220 TWh of needless electricity and ~100 million tonnes of CO₂;about the annual exhaust of 20 million cars or the whole nation of Belgium.
It doesn't have to be like this. We can do better.

Looks promising. I'd like to try this where i work, but I'm not an admin. What kind of permissions are needed to run this?

@alp82 Are you on AWS or Google Cloud? You don't need to be admin for the whole company, but you need to be able to create a new role at least. You would need these roles to be able to run the onboarding:
AWS CloudFormation Role Creation:
iam:CreateRole
iam:AttachRolePolicy
iam:CreatePolicy
cloudformation:CreateStack
cloudformation:DescribeStacks
GCP Service Account Creation:
iam.serviceAccounts.create
iam.serviceAccounts.setIamPolicy
resourcemanager.projects.setIamPolicy
Service Account Admin or Project IAM Admin roles

This product helped me find wasteful over committed virtual machines in my personal cloud environment. Think what it can do for larger corporate environments.

looks awesome. The only cloud I'm using right now is beam for LLMs, but this could be useful in the future.
