FAQ
What does this tool tell you?
Cost-aware IaC — see the dollar impact of every infrastructure change before it ships.
What affects the result most?
Parses terraform plan output resource counts to estimate monthly cost delta. resource 'aws_instance' type determines base cost lookup — t3.micro $8.35/mo, m5.xlarge $140/mo. Resources with no cost: IAM roles, security groups, route tables — infra but $0/month.
How should I use the result?
The calculation is deterministic — the same inputs always produce the same output — so the most useful workflow is to vary one input at a time and see which factor moves the result most. That tells you where to focus your attention before committing to a decision.
