Cost Optimization
Stop wasting money on idle cloud resources
Most companies overspend on cloud by 30-50%. Our AI-powered engine finds and eliminates waste automatically, with savings visible from day one.
The Problem
Cloud waste is an invisible drain on your business
Without the right tooling, cloud costs spiral out of control. Resources sit idle, instances run oversized, and engineering teams spend weeks on manual optimization that never sticks.

How It Works
Three steps to lower cloud costs
Getting started takes less than five minutes. Connect your clusters, let the AI analyze your workloads, and approve savings actions with a single click.
Connect
Register your Kubernetes clusters in seconds. No agents to install, no configuration to manage. Substrate connects to your existing infrastructure instantly.
Analyze
Our AI engine analyzes your workload patterns around the clock, identifying overprovisioned resources, idle clusters, and optimization opportunities across every provider.
Save
Review recommended optimization actions with estimated savings. Approve with one click and watch your cloud bill shrink. Full control, zero risk.
Optimization Engine
Savings on autopilot
Our optimization engine continuously analyzes your infrastructure and recommends specific actions with estimated savings. You maintain full control with an approval workflow for every action.
Scale to Zero
Stop paying for dev and staging clusters that sit idle nights and weekends. Automatically scale down non-production workloads during off hours.
60-80% savings on non-prodMachine Type Downsize
Right-size node pools by analyzing actual utilization. Move from oversized instances to the optimal machine type without disrupting workloads.
20-40% savings on computePod Rightsizing
Set optimal CPU and memory requests and limits based on real usage data. Eliminate resource waste at the pod level across every deployment.
15-30% savings on resourcesSpot Instance Migration
Identify stateless workloads that can safely run on spot or preemptible instances. Migrate automatically with built-in fallback to on-demand.
60-90% savings on eligible workloadsCost Visibility
Complete visibility into every dollar
Understand exactly where your cloud budget is going with provider-specific cost engines, real-time tracking, and granular breakdowns by cluster, namespace, and deployment.
Real-Time Spend Tracking
See your cloud costs update in real-time across every cluster and provider.
Provider-Specific Breakdowns
Detailed cost breakdowns tailored to AWS, Azure, and GCP pricing models.
Historical Trending
Track spending over time to identify trends, anomalies, and budget risks.
Organization-Level Views
Roll up costs by organization, project, namespace, or individual deployment.
