*Cloud Costs Out of Control? Cloudshot Sees What You Can’t
*

An emerging SaaS startup just crossed 80 paying customers.
But their AWS tab? A bloated $9,300 every month.

No surge in traffic.
No killer feature rollout.
Just cloud waste no one noticed.

They had:

14 microservices

3 global regions

Multiple Kubernetes clusters

Individual staging per team

And no live tracking of cloud usage

The CFO asked: Where’s this money going?
DevOps didn’t know.

Why were unused instances still running?

Why weren’t old environments shut down?

Who’s in charge of what?

They turned to Cloudshot.

Cloudshot Pulled Back the Curtain
In 60 minutes flat:

✅ Identified $5,800/month in waste
Oversized compute, idle staging environments, and detached volumes.

✅ Flagged 3 inactive environments
No activity in over 40 days. Zero log traffic. Nobody accountable.

✅ Clarified ownership
Now, every resource had a team and a name behind it.

By the end of the quarter:

AWS spend dropped to $1,200/month

Teams deployed faster

DevOps got back to building

Why It Happens: Invisible Infrastructure
Startups everywhere fall into this trap:

Over-provisioned infra for “future scale”

No cleanup workflow

Zero clarity into what’s active

DevOps teams overwhelmed

Cloudshot flips the script with real-time optimization visibility.

Cloudshot Makes It Easy To:
✅ Visualize actual cloud usage
✅ Detect unused infrastructure across providers
✅ Assign and track ownership
✅ Clean up with one click—safely

🚫 Don’t keep burning cash in the background.
✅ Start using Cloudshot and cut through the cloud fog.
