If you're an AWS customer, this is one of those no-brainer solutions once you discover it.
With AWS On-Demand pricing, you have no long term commitments and maximum flexibility based on your usage — but you'll pay an arm and a leg.
With AWS Reserved, AWS instances are basically set aside just for you — for periods of 2-3 years. So you might pay less but you're locked into a long term commitment. If you're a startup, your needs may change and so you can't risk taking the long term bet just to save some money.
Enter Antimetal: they use AI to analyze your AWS usage and procure services only based on what you need, saving you money and avoiding long term lock-in.
They're able to do this by creating a secondary marketplace for your Reserved contracts — and they automate the buying, selling, and transferring of these commitments among their customers.
Win-win-win.
And, best of all — it's free for startups for the first year, and then after that, Antimetal takes its cut from the money they save you.
Like I said: no-brainer! 🧠
This is all I wanted. I was using 3rd party providers till now who were using AWS at their base layer and taking almost 2x markup fees. Now I am gonna deploy my apps on my own AWS account.
Would love to see Azure too apart from AWS.
I'm a big fan of antimetal - cut our AWS bill down significantly - plus helped a few other startup friends as well. Excited to see the launch, congrats on the progress guys!
Congrats on the launch! 🚀
This is a great product. As someone who has worked with AWS for years, Startups struggled with managing costs and keeping expenses under control. This software gonna be a game-changer for startups.
One of the best things about this software is how it helps startups save on AWS costs. As a startup, every dollar counts, and managing AWS expenses can be a major challenge. With this software, I think startups can save a significant amount of money on their AWS bill, which can be reinvested into other areas of the business. This can help startups to grow and scale more quickly.
Interesting feature. I have seen many product to show stats of cost. but this gives to us the solution. if this is really working. There is no reason not to use it especially who develop on AWS
