Lumicost is a multi-cloud cost optimization platform built for engineering teams that refuse to wait weeks for a FinOps spreadsheet. We continuously analyze your AWS, GCP, Azure and Kubernetes spend, surface idle and oversized resources, model commitment coverage, and translate every recommendation into dollar-denominated savings — not vague percentages.

How Lumicost delivers cloud cost optimization

Unified multi-cloud cost visibility

Stop reconciling three billing exports. Get a single, normalized view of spend, usage and unit economics across AWS, GCP and Azure with daily granularity and tag-aware allocation.

Rightsizing & idle resource detection

Detect over-provisioned VMs, idle databases, orphaned disks, unattached IPs and zombie load balancers. Each finding ships with a USD-impact and a one-click remediation plan.

Commitment & savings-plan optimizer

Model GCP CUDs, AWS Savings Plans, Reserved Instances and Azure Reservations side-by-side. Recommendations adapt to your actual workload elasticity, not a 1-year forecast.

Anomaly detection that doesn't cry wolf

Statistical baselines per service, region and tag. Anomalies are deduplicated, ranked by USD blast radius and routed to Slack, PagerDuty or email.

Read-only by design

No agents, no IAM write permissions. Workload Identity Federation on GCP, IAM Role on AWS, App Registration on Azure. Your cloud account stays under your control.

Frequently asked questions

How does Lumicost reduce cloud costs?+

By continuously analyzing billing and usage data across AWS, GCP and Azure, identifying idle/oversized resources, modeling commitment coverage, and surfacing each opportunity with a verifiable USD-impact estimate. Most teams see 25–40% reduction within the first 30 days.

Is it safe to connect my cloud account?+

Yes. Lumicost requires read-only credentials only. We use Workload Identity Federation (GCP), IAM Roles (AWS) and App Registrations (Azure). No write permissions, no agents installed, no data leaves your region.

Does this work with Kubernetes?+

Yes. We support GKE, EKS and AKS with pod-level cost allocation, namespace chargeback and rightsizing recommendations driven by actual CPU/memory utilization.

How is this different from CloudHealth or Apptio Cloudability?+

Lumicost is engineer-first, has a free forever plan, ships SOC 2 evidence automation in the same product, and targets 5-minute setup. Legacy platforms typically require multi-week onboarding and 6-figure annual contracts.

What does the free plan include?+

Unlimited resources scanned, all major recommendation engines, daily refresh and one cloud account. No credit card required, no time limit.
