How WE Can help
Our Process
Three steps. No retainers. You only pay from verified savings on your bill.
48-Hour Cost Leak Report
Upload a billing export and get a one-page estimate (conservative/expected/aggressive) with your top 3 fixes by dollar impact.
7-Day Read-Only Audit
Under NDA + read-only IAM, we pinpoint leaks across your GCP environment and deliver a prioritized, measurable savings plan.
30-Day Savings Plan & Execution
We implement with staged, monitored, rollback-ready changes, send weekly savings deltas, and you pay 25% of verified first-year savings after it shows on your bill.
Why It Works
Right-size autoscaling for spiky Cloud Run/GKE traffic
Prune BigQuery scans (partitions, clustering, materialized views)
Right-size Cloud SQL classes & storage tiers
Cut waste (idle services, zombie workloads, unwanted egress)
Stage → test → monitor; no performance regressions
Offer & Guarantee
Pricing: Savings-share only = 25% of verified first-year savings
Guarantee: If we don't identify ≥15% of savings, you pay $0
