Live scan output from CloudKeeper Tuner Insights. Savings vary by environment.

The most expensive Azure resources are the ones nobody's using

Somewhere in your tenant right now: a deallocated VM still billing for disks, an empty App Service Plan running at full price.
Nobody approved this — it just accumulated.

Zombie resources bill silently
Orphaned IPs, unattached disks, forgotten restore points — invisible in every sprint, visible on every invoice.
Over-provisioning is the default
Engineers size for peak and move on. VMs, SQL databases, Redis caches run at a fraction of capacity — at full price.
Non-prod never sleeps
Dev, QA and staging run 24/7 while your team works 8 hours. That's up to two-thirds of non-prod spend going nowhere.
One-time audits don’t sustain savings
A cleanup sprint helps for a quarter. Without continuous monitoring, cost inefficiencies regress as environments evolve.

Reduce Azure cloud costs — without risking workload stability

Every pain your team feels on the Azure bill maps to a Tuner capability built to remove it — continuously, with
read-only access that keeps security risk to a minimum.

The Pain (What you say)

“Zombie resources bill silently, month after month.”

“Which fix is actually worth the sprint time?”

“Non-prod runs 24/7 while we work 8 hours a day.”

“Engineers lose sprint days to manual cost cleanups.”

“Waste discovered at invoice time is a month too late.”

“Costs are scattered across dozens of subscriptions.”

“What if a cleanup breaks production?”

“Spot VMs are cheap — until an eviction takes down the job.”

IP Addresses

Release 611 unassociated public IPs

Static IPs left behind by deleted resources keep billing every hour — safe to release, nothing is attached.

$1,833/mo Est. Savings

Low Risk

Continuous Engine Lifecycle

1

Continuous snapshots

Every resource is observed over time — never judged from a single point-in-time reading.

2

Behavior classification

Steady workloads are separated from ones that scale or toggle off-hours, so each gets the right instrument.

3

Scenario modeling

Every option is priced against live Azure retail rates — right-size, consolidate or schedule.

4

Validate & rank

Recommendations are stress-tested across scenarios, then ranked by dollar impact, risk and effort.
