Aezona CostLens
19 automated checks. AI-ranked savings. One-click fixes.
CostLens connects to your AWS account using an IAM Role — no stored credentials — scans your entire environment for waste, and surfaces prioritised recommendations with Aevi AI explanations and one-click fixes. No FinOps team required.
From connection to savings in minutes
Five steps. No FinOps expertise required.
Connect your AWS account
Link via IAM Role (recommended) or Access Keys. CostLens assumes your IAM Role temporarily — it never stores your credentials or requires long-lived keys. Least-privilege scoping, always.
Scan resources & billing data
CostLens runs 19 automated checks across EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, EBS, NAT Gateways, and more. Cost data syncs every 6 hours; resource checks refresh every 12 hours.
AI recommendations appear
Findings land on your dashboard ranked by estimated monthly savings and severity. Aevi AI explains every recommendation in plain English — what it found, why it matters, what will be changed.
Review, explain & decide
Inspect any finding, ask Aevi for deeper context, then approve or dismiss with a reason. Every decision is logged — team members can see who approved what and when.
Apply with one click
Approved fixes run dry-run first (where supported), then apply via the AWS API. CostLens logs the full before/after state, timestamp, and user identity for a complete audit trail.
Every corner of your AWS bill, covered
CostLens runs a comprehensive set of checks across compute, storage, databases, serverless, and networking — automatically, on every scan cycle.
Findings ranked by financial impact
Every recommendation is assigned a severity level based on estimated monthly savings, so you always know where to act first.
Critical
>$500/mo
High
$100–$500/mo
Medium
$20–$100/mo
Low
<$20/mo
Everything you need in one place
Built for engineering and finance teams who want results — not another dashboard to babysit.
Billing Analytics
Visualise your AWS spend by service, region, and tag over any date range. Drill into daily, weekly, or monthly views to spot cost spikes the moment they happen.
Cost Forecast
ML-powered spend projection for the current and next billing period. See if you're trending over budget before the invoice arrives.
Auto-Refresh Cycle
Billing data syncs every 6 hours. Cost-check scans run every 12 hours. Your dashboard always reflects near-real-time account state without manual triggers.
Savings Summary
See total potential savings across all open recommendations, segmented by severity and service. Track realised savings as fixes are applied.
Actionable Finding Feed
New findings surface instantly with estimated savings, severity badge, affected resource, and a one-click path to review and act.
Audit Log
Complete history of every applied fix, approval, and dismissal — who did it, when, what the resource state was before and after.
Your AI-powered cloud cost advisor
Powered by Claude Sonnet, Aevi is embedded directly in every finding. Ask it anything about a recommendation — it'll explain the issue, describe the exact fix, estimate risk, and answer follow-up questions in plain English.
- Explain any finding in plain English on demand
- Describe the exact AWS API call that will run
- Estimate confidence level and potential side-effects
- Answer follow-up questions about the recommendation
- Summarise your account's biggest cost drivers
- Suggest next-best actions after a fix is applied
Finding
4 unattached EBS volumes detected — est. $47/mo wasted
Aevi AI Explanation
These 4 EBS volumes are in an available state, meaning they are not attached to any EC2 instance. You're being billed for the storage capacity even though nothing is using it. I recommend taking a final snapshot of each, then deleting them. The total estimated saving is $47/month.
Automated fixes — with dry-run and rollback
Before any change is applied, CostLens runs a dry-run to show you exactly what will happen. Reversible fixes can be undone from the audit log.
Dry-Run Preview
Where supported by the AWS API, CostLens performs a dry-run first. You see the exact change before it's committed — no surprises.
Reversible Actions
Fixes that can be undone — like instance type changes or stopping resources — are flagged as reversible. Roll back from the audit log with one click.
Full Audit Trail
Every applied fix is logged with before state, after state, timestamp, user identity, and the Aevi reasoning that informed the decision.
Designed for trust — not convenience
CostLens uses IAM Role assumption, not long-lived credentials. It requests only the read permissions it needs to scan, plus a targeted set of write permissions for the specific fixes it supports. Credentials are never stored. Every session is short-lived and scoped.

Notifications that matter
CostLens alerts you when new high-severity findings appear, when a scan cycle completes, and when a fix is applied by any team member. Alerts are delivered in-app, and email notifications are configurable per user.
