Its easy peasy!

Optimise cloud spend and reduce your carbon footprintCloudshot gives you a detailed breakdown of your cloud spending. You can also take a deep dive, check if there are any unnecessary expenses and take action within Cloudshot. Let us tell you a story - we were getting AWS CloudWatch bill of several hundred dollars a month. Now, spending this much, which "just" lets you view your logs and a bit of reporting, did not make sense to us. We peeped into the AWS Cost section but were clueless about why the bill was so much. We tried everything, such as removing unnecessary log groups, retention policies, etc., but the bill continued every month. Now, with Cloudshot, we peeped into our own account and saw something that did not make sense to us. We fixed it and could reduce over 91% of our spending on Cloudshot.
