    I don't know how they can justify 250 USD / month bill. let alone 1000 USD / month.

      We prevent way more than that from being added to the cloud bill by showing engineers cost estimates that enables them to make better decisions pre-deploy - e.g. when an engineer knows the IOPS option on their EC2 instance is costing them a lot, they're more likely to reduce that or not use that in dev envs vs just copy/paste what's on production. There's an ROI report on infracost.io that shows how we measure the cost prevention between the first and last commit on merged PRs.

      why would anyone need 10,000 runs a month? do people modify their infrastructure 10,000 times a month?

        CI/CD pipelines needs 1 CLI run per commit (like any other code scanning tool), we regularly see enterprises with 100K+ runs/month.

        Not really seeing the point I just use openrouter if I'm penny pinching

          OpenRouter is great for keeping your LLM API bill down, Infracost is about the AWS/Azure/GCP bill your IaC creates. When an agent writes IaC that creates a NAT gateway or an RDS instance, that's $50-5000/mo in cloud spend, so the agent knowing that estimate and the best practices as it's generating the code can optimize it pre-deploy.
