The engineering excellence platform

See Where Your Infrastructure Money Goes — and Ship the Optimization.

Lizrd is built for engineering leaders and engineers — where FinOps, cloud monitoring, and engineering meet. From your real usage and billing data, it shows you exactly where your infrastructure money goes and why — then guides you, step by step with tailored diffs, through quick, low-risk optimizations.

Read-only. No changes to your infrastructure without your approval.

Up to 50% of cloud spend is wasted. Finding it isn’t the hard part — fixing it, under real engineering priorities, is.

Where Three Worlds Meet

Understand Your Spend. Optimize With Confidence.

Lizrd sits where FinOps, cloud monitoring, and engineering meet — and turns that into one clear path for the people who build the infrastructure.

📍

Where Your Money Goes

Every dollar, mapped — across clouds, accounts, resources, and the teams that own them.

🔍

Why It Goes There

The drivers behind each cost, with the evidence behind every opportunity — no black boxes.

🛠️

Guidance to Optimize

Tailored, step-by-step diffs for quick, low-risk fixes — reduce cost without hurting your customers.

Simple enough for anyone to act. Every opportunity becomes a clear, copy-paste-ready change — effort, risk, and rollback spelled out — so even a less-experienced engineer can ship it with confidence.

New AI & GPU waste

Now Catching Waste in Your AI Infrastructure

GPU and inference spend is the fastest-growing line on most bills — and the easiest to overpay on. Lizrd reads real GPU utilization, endpoint traffic, and accelerator sizing to find idle and over-provisioned AI infrastructure, then hands you the exact fix. Same evidence, same confidence, same one-step guidance as the rest of your cloud.

Examples across AWS, GCP & Azure

AI · Idle High confidence

Remove the idle inference endpoint

sagemaker · fraud-scoring-v2

$2,190/mo
ml.g5.xlarge · 0 calls in 14 days
Utilization · 30-day
GPU
1%
Calls
0%
Recommended action · No traffic in 14 days, but the GPU endpoint bills around the clock. Delete it (model and config are retained) or move it behind a scale-to-zero config — savings start immediately.

AI · Rightsize High confidence

Downsize the over-provisioned GPU box

ec2 · model-training

$5,400/mo

Utilization · 30-day

Code diff · ml/training.tf
- instance_type = "g5.12xlarge"

AI · Scale to zero Medium confidence

Scale the bursty endpoint to zero

vertex-ai · recommender-v3

$1,340/mo
Traffic in 2–3 hr bursts · idle 80% of day
Utilization · 30-day
GPU
9%
Calls
17%
Recommended action · Traffic arrives in short bursts and the endpoint sits idle most of the day. Move it to a scale-to-zero serverless config so you only pay while it serves.
Accept View guidance
AI · Spot Medium confidence

Run nightly fine-tuning on Spot GPUs

azure-ml · nightly-finetune

$1,760/mo
Checkpointed batch job · runs off-hours
Utilization · 30-day
GPU
86%
Recommended action · This job already checkpoints and runs off-hours — move it to managed Spot capacity for up to ~70% off the on-demand GPU rate, with automatic resume.

◆ Idle & underused GPU instances and managed inference endpoints

◆ Over-provisioned accelerators — right accelerator, right size

◆ Endpoints that should scale to zero between bursts of traffic

◆ Batch & fine-tuning jobs that belong on Spot GPUs

Across AWS, GCP, and Azure — SageMaker & Bedrock, Vertex AI, and Azure ML & OpenAI.

Transparency into cost

See Exactly Where the Money Goes

One clear picture of your spend across clouds, accounts, and resources — explore it as a breakdown, a tree map, an architecture view, or a trend over time. The visibility your finance and engineering teams have been missing.

  • ◆ Cost attributed down to the resource and the team that owns it
  • ◆ Multiple views — breakdown, tree map, architecture, trends
  • ◆ Continuously updated as your environment changes

Understanding of cost

Know What's Driving It — and Why

Lizrd turns raw spend into ranked opportunities — the highest-value fixes first, each with the evidence behind it and a clear reason to act. No black-box guesses; you see exactly why every dollar is on the table.

  • ◆ Opportunities ranked by savings, effort, and risk
  • ◆ Utilization evidence behind every recommendation
  • ◆ Categorized — rightsize, idle, orphaned, and more

Step-by-step guidance

Guided, Quick, Low-Risk Fixes

Every opportunity comes with tailored, step-by-step guidance for your setup — copy-paste-ready code, an effort estimate, a risk read, and a rollback. Like a principal engineer looking over your shoulder, so any engineer can ship it quickly and with confidence.

  • ◆ Tailored code snippets & diffs — strongest when your infra is code
  • ◆ Effort, risk, and rollback spelled out up front — low-risk by design
  • ◆ Savings proven back once the change lands

Works With Your Stack

Connect the Tools You Already Run

Point Lizrd at your clouds and code. It's strongest when your infrastructure is defined as code (Terraform and more): every recommendation ties to the exact file to change, so acting is a copy-paste diff. No infrastructure-as-code? Lizrd still finds the savings and guides you through them, step by step.
