The problem
Instances and ECS tasks are sized once, generously, and then forgotten. Multiply a little over-provisioning across a fleet and it becomes one of the biggest lines on your bill — invisible in a cost dashboard that only shows totals.
How Lizrd fixes it
Lizrd reads utilization and configuration read-only, finds the compute running well under its provisioned size, and proposes the exact smaller instance type or CPU/memory setting — with the evidence (30-day averages), a confidence level, and the diff to apply.
The outcome
Right-sized compute without a capacity-planning project. Every change is reversible, and Lizrd validates the savings once it lands.
“It found a dozen instances running at 8% CPU that everyone was scared to touch. The diff and the one-click rollback made it a no-brainer.”
More ways to save
Cover steady usage with commitments
Savings Plans and committed-use discounts are free money on steady baselines — if you size them right. Lizrd finds your safe, always-on floor to commit against.
Cut idle networking waste
Idle NAT gateways, unattached elastic IPs, and load balancers with no traffic bill around the clock. Lizrd finds them and confirms what's safe to remove.
Delete orphaned resources
Unattached volumes, unused IPs, and stale snapshots keep billing with nothing using them. Lizrd finds them and confirms they're safe to remove.
