A 2023 engagement uncovered 19,136 EBS volumes (1.29 PB) still attached to long-stopped EC2 instances. Snapshotting and removing them cut storage costs by about $110,000 every month — the same orphaned-volume waste CloudPouch detects automatically.

The cost table lets you filter costs by Region and Service name. You can sort results by usage (default) or by Service name.
Cost Insights scan the resources in your AWS accounts and tell you what to fix, why it costs money, and how much you will save. Read-only, running on your computer.

Finds unattached volumes, volumes still paid for on stopped instances, and snapshot cleanup opportunities — a classic source of silent AWS waste.
Recommends the cheapest EBS volume type that still meets your workload needs, based on 14 days of CloudWatch metrics.
Spots EKS clusters and RDS databases quietly adding hundreds of dollars a month in Extended Support charges — including the total paid so far.
Detects idle RDS databases and underutilized EC2 instances, with rightsizing recommendations up to Auto Scaling Group level.
Breaks down Amazon Bedrock spend by team using IAM principal tags, so you know exactly who is generating the GenAI bill.
Bulk Cost Insights analyzes all services in one go. If a permission is missing, CloudPouch tells you exactly which API call failed — it never confuses "couldn't check" with "nothing to save".
WHAT CLOUDPOUCH CHECKS — 17 AWS SERVICES, AND COUNTING
Don't waste time on logging in, clicking around and switching between AWS accounts. See what's important within seconds.
Built for consultants and multi-account teams. Switch between AWS accounts and organizations in seconds — not the minutes it takes in Cost Explorer. AWS SSO supported.
Nothing to deploy in your AWS account and nothing to configure. CloudPouch uses the AWS profiles file that is already on your computer.
Your billing data belongs to you and no one else. It is downloaded directly from AWS to your computer — never stored on our servers, never shared with anyone. No telemetry, no analytics.
You don't need to convince anyone at your company to use this software. Nothing is installed in your AWS account — the desktop app fetches cost data via the AWS SDK using read-only permissions.
Concrete savings recommendations with estimated amounts — not just charts. CloudPouch analyzes EC2, EBS, RDS, S3, EKS, Lambda, DynamoDB, Bedrock and more.

At the end of 2021, an account with roughly 17,000 EBS volumes was spending about $100,000 per month on GP2 storage. Migrating to GP3 — an opportunity CloudPouch flags out of the box — reduced that bill by about 20%.
Figures come from real engagements by CloudPouch's founder and are anchored to their dates. Your savings depend on your usage and current AWS pricing.
CloudPouch just reads your local AWS profiles, pulls costs straight to your machine, and shows you where the money goes. I spotted AWS Config rules that had quietly started costing way more than usual… Nobody opens Cost Explorer until the bill already hurts. CloudPouch makes it the kind of thing you actually check on a Tuesday morning with your coffee, not something you panic about at the end of the month.
Setup was quick, it reads your existing AWS CLI profiles and SSO config so there is nothing to configure. No agents in your account, no billing data leaving your machine. I work with client accounts and I cannot just plug random SaaS tools into their infrastructure… You can tell it was built by someone who actually does this work every day, and that makes all the difference.
If you're working with AWS and want actual visibility into where your cloud budget is going, you need to check out CloudPouch. I've been following it for a while and absolutely love the privacy-first approach: no SaaS, no data leaves your machine, just your AWS profiles, analyzed locally. Perfect for devs, architects, and SREs who are tired of guessing what's driving the bill.
I like it! I think there are often some straightforward configuration wins for DDB tables that can save money without making code changes. Nice work and nice video!
Most AWS cost tools either overwhelm you with dashboards or don't go deep enough. CloudPouch hits the right balance… There's no filler — every feature exists because a real client had a real problem. I spotted cost patterns I'd been missing for months within the first week of use.
CloudPouch hands down is the best way for me to navigate my AWS costs across multiple accounts in an intuitive way. There's many solutions out there including things provided by AWS, but this was the first one I used that was straightforward from the start.
Very useful view of cost across multiple AWS accounts. Easy to navigate, zoom in and out, as well get priority view on cloud spending. It saved me hundreds of dollars and probably more thanks to early detection of leaks.
Great app — helps me to manage my personal projects on AWS. I like simple and clear UI, ability to view multiple AWS accounts and caching of cost explorer data. That makes it easy to quickly understand what's happening.
CloudPouch is a nice application for getting an high level overview of your AWS expenses as well as diving deep into individual usage types. It integrates well into AWS SSO, so you don't have to create yet another IAM access key. The app has charts for showing you cost over time, so you can pinpoint on when a specific spike happened, or if it's been an ongoing trend.
I've had a positive experience with Cloudpouch. The platform feels clean and easy to navigate, making cloud data management faster and more efficient. The user interface is intuitive, helping reduce the learning curve when handling complex tasks… I would recommend Cloudpouch to other professionals.
Cloud-pouch is best cost optimiser tools ever seen, lots of features was there since beginning which now introduce by few cloud provider. Kudos to cloud pouch developer.

CloudPouch is described in Efficient Cloud FinOps (Packt Publishing) by Alfonso San Miguel Sánchez and Danny Obando García. The authors present it as one of the interesting FinOps tools — covering its cost breakdown, Cost Insights, and the local, desktop-first model that works with your AWS CLI and SSO profiles.
Independent authors writing about FinOps chose CloudPouch as a tool worth knowing. We think that says more than any ad could.

AWS Hero, architect & developer. Founder of the CloudPouch application.
I wrote CloudPouch because I needed a simple solution to understand costs in multiple accounts that I manage in my everyday work. CloudPouch works locally on my machine, so it can be used with my clients' accounts, without special permissions and a hassle of multiple browser windows.
I use it everyday to check current usage; find waste; and misconfigured resources; in order to optimize costs for my clients.
Founder.
Most importantly, your IAM user must be authorized to perform ce:GetCostAndUsage action.
For Cost Insights other read-only privileges are also necessary, please see documentation Minimal IAM User privileges.
Yes. CloudPouch uses AWS CostExplorer API to load or refresh charts and tables. AWS charges $0.01 per request. To display costs on a single screen (particular AWS account + time period) CloudPouch needs data fetched by 2 requests.
CloudPouch uses the AWS SDK to connect to your AWS Account(s) and fetch cost data. There is nothing in the middle. AWS Credentials are taken from your ~/.aws/profiles & ~/.aws/config files. In principle it works similarly to an AWS CLI command executed against the Cost Explorer API (aws ce get-cost-and-usage). We are not sharing or storing your data anywhere. See next point.
Your billing data is stored on your computer only. Since AWS Cost Explorer API incurs costs, once fetched data is stored and reused in order to save you from additional costs.
