Parsivex
Parsivex is an AWS cost optimization and waste detection platform for engineering teams who own their cloud bill.
Most AWS waste is mundane: an RDS instance nobody switched off, unattached EBS volumes, a NAT Gateway routing traffic that no longer exists, EC2 instances sized for a load test two years ago. Cost Explorer tells you the bill went up. It doesn't tell you what to delete.
Parsivex connects through a read-only IAM role, with no agents and no write access, and scans for concrete waste: idle EC2, RDS and load balancers, orphaned snapshots and Elastic IPs, over-provisioned compute, and untagged resources. Every finding includes the resource ID, region, estimated monthly saving, and why it was flagged, so an engineer can verify and act without a second investigation.
Scans re-run on a schedule and flag cost anomalies while the spend is still small. Multi-region from one dashboard.
No sales call. Start a free scan and get your first report in minutes.
