About

# Akhya.AI — Full Description## Overview**Akhya.AI** is an AI-powered cloud cost optimization platform for startups and growth-stage teams. Connect AWS in minutes with read-only IAM access. Our platform analyzes infrastructure and spend, surfaces waste, forecasts burn, and delivers prioritized savings recommendations — without a dedicated FinOps team.**Tagline:** *See Through the Cloud. Save Smart with Akhya.AI.*---## What We DoAkhya.AI acts as your **AI cloud cost advisor**. We turn raw AWS billing and infrastructure signals into clear, actionable guidance so you reduce spend before it impacts runway.**Core capabilities:**- **AI-powered infrastructure audit** — Detect over-provisioned compute, reservation gaps, and savings-plan inefficiencies- **Real-time cost forecasting** — Understand current burn and projected spend- **Fix recommendations** — Prioritized, best-practice actions to cut waste- **Secure cloud onboarding** — Guided IAM setup with least-privilege, read-only access---## How It Works### 1. Connect Your CloudSecure AWS connection via **IAM Role** (recommended) or access keys for evaluation.- Cross-account role with **External ID** for secure assumption- **Read-only** permissions scoped to Cost Explorer and EC2 metadata- Copy-paste trust and permissions policies in a guided wizard- Credentials encrypted; no plain-text storage**AWS permissions we use (read-only):**```ce:GetCostAndUsagece:GetDimensionValuesce:GetReservationUtilizationce:GetSavingsPlansUtilizationec2:DescribeInstancesec2:DescribeReservedInstances```### 2. AI Infrastructure AnalysisOnce connected, Akhya.AI pulls cost and infrastructure data and runs it through our **AI analysis engine** (OpenAI) to:- Scan usage patterns across services and accounts- Diagnose architectural inefficiencies- Identify rightsizing, reservation, and waste opportunities- Correlate spend with actual resource utilization### 3. Actionable InsightsYou receive prioritized output — not just charts:- Estimated savings per recommendation- Best-practice fixes aligned to AWS guidance- Spend forecasts for runway planning- Clear next steps your engineering team can act on---## Free-Tier Infrastructure ArchitectureAkhya.AI is built on a **serverless, pay-per-use stack** so we can offer a **free tier** without heavy fixed infrastructure cost. That efficiency is passed through to customers.```┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐│ Customer AWS Account ││ (Read-only IAM Role · Cost Explorer · EC2) │└────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────┘ │ Secure API reads ▼┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐│ Akhya.AI Serverless Backend (AWS) ││ AWS Lambda · Node.js 18 · us-east-1 · GET /insights ││ • Invoked on demand — no always-on servers ││ • Scales to zero between analysis runs ││ • Pay only for compute time used per request │└────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐│ AI Analysis Layer ││ OpenAI — infra diagnosis & recommendation generation │└────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐│ Frontend (Vercel · Next.js 15) ││ Edge-deployed · Static + SSR · Global CDN ││ • No dedicated app servers ││ • Low marginal cost per user session │└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘```**Why this matters for the free tier:**| Component | Architecture choice | Free-tier benefit ||-----------|---------------------|-------------------|| **API** | AWS Lambda (serverless) | No idle server cost; scales to zero || **Web app** | Vercel + Next.js 15 | Edge CDN; no VM provisioning || **Data access** | Direct AWS API reads | No persistent data warehouse at onboarding || **Compute model** | Event-driven, per-analysis | Cost tied to usage, not capacity || **Security** | IAM Role + External ID | No credential vault overhead for basic tier |**Result:** A lean, event-driven architecture where infrastructure cost grows with usage — enabling a sustainable **free entry tier** for startups to connect, analyze, and get initial insights at no charge.---## Technology Stack| Layer | Technology ||-------|------------|| **Frontend** | Next.js 15, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS || **UI** | shadcn/ui, Framer Motion, Three.js || **API** | AWS Lambda via Serverless Framework || **Cloud SDK** | AWS SDK — Cost Explorer, EC2 || **AI** | OpenAI || **Deploy** | Vercel (web) · AWS us-east-1 (API) |---## Cloud Support| Provider | Status ||----------|--------|| **AWS** | Available — IAM Role & access key onboarding || **Google Cloud** | Coming Soon || **Microsoft Azure** | Coming Soon |---## Who It's For- Seed to Series B startups on AWS- Engineering-led teams without dedicated FinOps- CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and technical founders managing cloud spend---## Getting Started1.
