One managed platform for the whole AWS cost lifecycle
From the first read-only estimate to continuously optimized commitments, waste removal and reporting — here's exactly what Averium does and how each piece works.
Your whole AWS spend — optimized and verifiable
Connect read-only and Averium turns Cost Explorer into a live picture: what you spend, what we've already saved, and what's still on the table. This is a clickable demo of the real portal — walk through the sidebar to see every page.

Current spend, delivered savings and your bill with Averium — side by side, refreshed every billing cycle.
Daily optimizable spend
A per-day view of what's already captured, what's still optimizable and what's uncovered across the cycle.
Savings by category
Commitments, waste and rightsizing broken out to the dollar — with one-click Autopilot to capture them.
Reproducible & read-only
No black box: every number ties back to Cost Explorer, and access starts read-only and revocable.
Savings Plans managed end-to-end, plus short-term marketplace reservations
We read your steady-state usage from Cost Explorer, size the right commitment, and keep the portfolio balanced as your workloads change — so you capture the deepest discount without over-committing.
- Compute Savings Plans and the CloudFront Security Savings Bundle, sized to the usage you haven't already covered
- RI Marketplace: buy reservations other AWS customers are reselling, often with only a few months left — the discount without a fresh one- or three-year commitment. Shortest terms first, each priced against your own on-demand rate; you buy it in your console, we never purchase on your behalf
- Coverage-aware: we only ever recommend the uncovered portion, never double-cover
- Cashback guarantee on managed commitments — if one costs more than it saves over its term, we refund the difference
- Self-serve mode gives you the same recommendations with direct console links
Commitment coverage
Remove waste with one click — and a safety net
Idle Elastic IPs, unattached EBS volumes, 90-day-old snapshots, storage on long-stopped instances. We surface every wasteful resource and fix it through AWS-native automation.
- Every fix runs via an SSM runbook — never a raw, unaudited API call
- A rollback snapshot is taken before anything destructive happens
- A protected-resource tag guard means tagged resources are never touched
- Approval flow and full history on every action
Waste — one-click fixable
- Unassociated Elastic IPs (eu-west-1)$14.60/mo
- Unattached EBS volumes (us-east-1)$96.80/mo
- Snapshots older than 90 days$135.55/mo
Rollback snapshot taken before every fix
Stop paying for idle non-production at night
Development, staging and test environments rarely need to run 24/7. Averium stops and starts them automatically on your schedule, across every region.
- Automatic multi-region stop/start on a schedule you set
- One-click manual stop when you finish for the day
- Applies to EC2 instances; skips anything you mark as protected

Right instance, right generation, right storage
We combine AWS Compute Optimizer with deep audits to find over-provisioned and outdated resources you can safely shrink or modernize.
- Compute Optimizer rightsizing for over-provisioned EC2
- Previous-generation instance & database detection (m4→m7i, db.t2→db.t4g)
- gp2 → gp3 volume migration (20% cheaper, no downtime)
- EKS extended-support detection (billed ~6× the standard rate)
Rightsizing findings
- Over-provisioned EC2$639/mo
m5.2xlarge → m7i.xlarge
- Previous-gen database$180/mo
db.m4 → db.m7g
- gp2 → gp3 volumes$96/mo

Cost per team, environment and product
Turn your cost-allocation tags — and virtual tags you define in Averium — into answers: which team, product or environment is driving spend, and the exact services behind it.
- Break the bill down by any active cost-allocation tag
- Virtual tags: allocate spend by rules on account and service, even for resources that were never tagged
- Expand any value into its full per-service split
- An “untagged” view exposes your tagging-coverage gap
- Per-account breakdown for AWS Organizations, to the cent
Cost by team
team- backend$4,052
- frontend$1,120
- data$541
- (untagged)$980
Budgets that warn you before the bill does
Set a monthly limit for the whole bill, an account, a service or a tag. Averium checks spend twice a day and emails your team as soon as a budget is at risk — not after the invoice lands.
- Scope a budget to the whole bill, one account, one service or one tag (virtual tags included)
- Alerts at 80% and 100% of the limit, each sent once per month
- A forecast alert when the month's run rate is on track to exceed the limit
- Anomaly alerts when daily spend breaks from its normal pattern

Ask your AWS bill anything
A chat assistant inside the portal answers questions about your spend in plain language — why the bill moved, what a service really costs, where the next saving is — grounded in your own cost data, not generic advice.
- Answers from your account's Cost Explorer data and the portal's findings
- Explains spikes, compares months and sizes commitments in seconds
- Attach a CSV or screenshot and it works from that too
- Scoped to AWS cost and architecture; hand any question to our FinOps team in one click
Averium copilot
Why did our bill jump 18% in September?
Two drivers: Kafka (MSK) in prod-core grew by $1,240 after the brokers moved to m5.4xlarge, and data transfer out rose $610. Moving those brokers to m7g.2xlarge would save about $2,300 a month.

Funding only an AWS Partner can unlock
AWS funding programs — migration (MAP) and proof-of-concept credits — aren't open to customers directly: AWS only accepts them through an AWS Partner. As your Partner, Averium originates the request, prepares the application and statement of work, and submits it on your behalf. AWS makes the final award.
- Customers can't apply directly — funding must be originated by an AWS Partner
- We build the scope, success criteria and SOW, and submit it for you
- Track status in the portal; eligibility and amounts are decided by AWS

Built least-privilege, kept auditable
Read-only to start
Analysis only needs a scoped read-only IAM role. Autopilot is a separate, explicit step.
Least-privilege access
We read only the cost & usage metadata we need, through scoped IAM roles you control and can revoke at any time.
Reversible automation
Every change is an SSM runbook with a rollback snapshot and a protected-resource guard.
2FA & full history
Two-factor sign-in and a complete connection + action audit trail per account.
