Stop guessing your AWS bill at month-end. AWS Cost Tracker puts real-time cost visibility directly into your development environment, so you never deploy blindly again.

AWS Cost Tracker solves the problem of cost blindness during development by surfacing per-service and per-resource spend right where you work – in your IDE or browser. Unlike clunky dashboards, this lightweight extension integrates with your deployment pipeline and infrastructure-as-code workflows, alerting you to cost anomalies before they blow your budget.

What’s Included

• Real-time cost dashboard in your IDE or browser sidebar
• Per-service and per-resource cost breakdown with drill-down
• Cost anomaly alerts triggered by deployment pipeline events
• Export spend data to CSV for reporting or budgeting
• One-click IAM role setup with read-only permissions for security

Who Is This For

• DevOps engineers who want cost context without switching tools
• Cloud architects managing multi-service AWS environments
• Platform teams integrating cost awareness into CI/CD pipelines
• Startup CTOs needing to keep cloud spend predictable

How It Works

Install the AWS Cost Tracker extension for your browser or VS Code. Connect your AWS account using a read-only IAM role (takes 2 minutes).
