CortiX CloudCost Copilot
Reads your AWS bill through a read-only role, explains spend and flags waste: month over month changes, spike days, budgets over forecast, savings, idle volumes and idle addresses. It never changes your account.
What it does
CortiX CloudCost Copilot reads your AWS bill through your read-only role, explains spend and flags waste.
Connect: you create a read-only role with the external ID CortiX shows.
Pull: Cost Explorer monthly and daily costs and the month forecast, AWS Budgets, Compute Optimizer EC2 savings and unattached EBS volumes and idle Elastic IPs per Region. Pulls are capped per day because Cost Explorer bills each request.
Findings (computed, never estimated): services up month over month, spike days, budgets over or forecast over, savings and idle volumes and addresses. Every dollar amount comes from AWS.
Explain: a plain summary. Any dollar figure not in the snapshot is replaced and listed.
Exports: Excel and Markdown.
Not included: Trusted Advisor, Savings Plans advice, an organization-wide view and automatic clean-up. CortiX never changes your account.
AWS charges: Cost Explorer API requests made through your role are charged by AWS to your account, separately from this AWS Marketplace subscription. You pay those charges.
