CloudBurn is for teams using Terraform or AWS CDK who want to prevent expensive infrastructure mistakes before they reach production. Most teams discover AWS cost problems weeks later on their bill, after the infrastructure is already running and the money is spent. CloudBurn changes this by showing AWS costs during code review, when changes are easy to make.
Here's how it works:
1. A developer opens a pull request with infrastructure changes (Terraform or AWS CDK).
2. CloudBurn automatically analyzes the changes using real-time AWS pricing.
3. A cost report appears in your PR, showing exactly what each change will cost per month.
4. Your team discusses costs during code review and adjusts before deployment.
What you get:
- Automatic cost analysis on every infrastructure PR
- Real-time AWS pricing for your specific region
- Resource-level breakdown showing old vs. new monthly costs
Stop optimizing reactively. Catch costly decisions during code review when they're easy to fix.
