EXTREME SECURITY

We Tread Lightly

Usage AI uses an extremely limited IAM Role to analyze your cloud and buy and sell reservations.

WE CANNOT modify, or in any way touch your instances.

WE CANNOT read code or network traffic.

WE CANNOT start, stop, or modify your instances

MASSIVE SAVINGS

The Best of Both Billing Models

By virtue of the Buy-Back Guarantee, Usage is able to combine the savings of Reserved with the flexibility of On-Demand.

On Demand

Highest hourly rate

Flexible (can be shut on/off at will)

Reserved

Requires 1 - 3 year contract

Up to 57% savings

No 1-3 year contract

Flexible (can be shut on/off at will)

Up to 57% savings

Daniel Broukhim

Co-Founder of FabFitFun

We frequently autoscale, so prior to Usage, it was nerve-wracking committing to Savings Plans and Reserved Instances. More commitments meant more savings, but they also increased our risk exposure. With Usage's Buyback Guarantee, we've maximized our annual savings at no risk to ourselves - that's hard to beat!

Chase Cottle

Co-Founder and CTO of Eyeball Division

This is the easiest 'yes' you could possibly commit to - essentially get free money you wouldn't have otherwise. I can't think of a reason you shouldn't use this service. It takes all the headaches out of managing Reserved Instances and making sure you're getting the best rate for your infrastructure.

Justin Ullman

Founder and CEO of RhinoDox

One of the simpler decisions I've ever had to make. Between it only requiring minimal access, delivering great savings, and being a one-time onboarding, our AWS bill is a monthly reminder that we made a great choice!

No Surprises, Just Savings

Simple Flat Fee Pricing. Period.

From one AWS bill to the next, Usage only bills for a percentage of the actual savings we helped you realize.

${"src":"/_next/static/media/MoneyOff.a7832adf.svg","height":24,"width":24,"blurWidth":0,"blurHeight":0}$ No hidden fees. No conditions. No pricing tiers.

${"src":"/_next/static/media/CloudCheck.73fb50fe.svg","height":24,"width":24,"blurWidth":0,"blurHeight":0}$ Billed in line with your monthly AWS bill.
