A CloudZero alternative for smaller teams
CloudZero focuses on cost allocation for engineering organisations. Smaller teams that only need to find waste in a bill may want a lighter option.
Questions to decide
- Do you need unit costs per customer or feature, or just a list of waste?
- Can you grant account access, or only share a file?
- How often will you review costs?

Try it on your own bill
CloudCostAI reads a billing export file (AWS Cost and Usage Report, GCP billing export or Azure usage CSV) and returns findings with fix steps. It needs no access to your cloud account. Free: one report a month. Pro $29/month, Team $99/month, or a one-time audit for $179 (current plans, checked 2026-10-27).
Findings are estimates from billing lines, not utilisation metrics. Check each one against usage and service needs before changing anything.
