Getting Started

Welcome to Blamphs. We bridge the gap between high-performance infrastructure and financial efficiency, automating your AWS cost optimization so you can focus on building.

1. Platform Overview

Blamphs is an intelligent orchestration layer for your AWS stack. Unlike traditional reporting tools that just show you costs, Blamphs takes action to eliminate waste.

Real-time Visibilty

Monitor resource utilization instantly across all regions and accounts.

Automated Actions

Intelligently terminate idle resources and right-size instances.

2. Quick Onboarding

Connect your AWS environment in less than 15 minutes with our secure, non-intrusive setup process.

1

Connect Your Account

Navigate to the Dashboard and select "Add AWS Account". Only ReadOnly access is initially required for discovery.

Discovery & Optimization

We analyze 24 hours of data to establish a baseline. You'll receive your first Optimization Report automatically once complete.

3. Core Features

Compute (EC2)

Automated right-sizing and Spot Instance orchestration. We detect idle instances and suggest cheaper families like Graviton.

Serverless

Monitor Lambda execution durations and S3 storage classes, automatically implementing Intelligent-Tiering.

Networking

Deep analysis of VPC Peering and NAT Gateway traffic to identify and reduce expensive cross-region data transfers.

Identity (IAM)

Security-led cost optimization. We flag unused IAM users and roles that pose security risks and hidden costs.

Security First

We operate on a strict Least Privilege model. Your data sovereignty is our top priority.

  • Metadata Only: We never read your application data, only infrastructure metadata.
  • Encryption: TLS 1.2+ for transit and AES-256 for data at rest.
  • Cross-Account Trust: Uses AWS STS. Revoke access anytime via your console.

5. Pricing & Forecasting

Our business model is aligned with your success. We use a performance-based pricing model—we only grow when you save money.

Free Tier

For startups with monthly spend <$2,500.

Enterprise

Advanced self-healing, custom forecasting, and dedicated support.

Forecast Engine

Our ML models predict your end-of-month bill based on current usage spikes, alerting you before you go over budget.
