CloudBudgetMaster

What it does

Find wasted AWS resources in 5 minutes. CloudBudgetMaster connects read-only to your AWS account, detects unused EC2 instances, orphaned EBS volumes, idle RDS databases, and unattached Elastic IPs — with exact dollar amounts wasted. Get daily automated scans, AI cost assistant, cost spike alerts, and PDF savings reports. Free tier available, no credit card required.

Bedrock model invocations, SageMaker endpoints left running, and GPU instances that scale spend faster than any budget alert can react. NAT Gateway processing fees, cross-AZ and inter-region data transfer, and IPv4 address rent that never show up as their own line item.

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
