Stop getting surprised by your AWS bill.
No dashboards. No tab switching. Just the cost — right where decisions happen.
The difference
Other tools make you leave your workflow — open Cost Explorer, run a report, filter by service, then mentally map it back to the resource you were just looking at.
CloudLens puts the cost on the resource page itself. Where the decision happens.
Why this matters
Every one of these engineers knew AWS costs money. They just had no idea what that specific resource was costing while they were looking right at it. That's the gap CloudLens closes.
How it works
No new dashboards. No training. Browse AWS as normal.
Add from the Chrome Web Store. Create a read-only IAM user with Cost Explorer access — four permissions, five minutes. We walk you through every step.
A cost badge automatically appears on every supported service page. EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda — wherever you navigate, the cost follows.
Click any badge for a plain-English explanation — what's driving the cost, whether it's normal, and one concrete action if something looks off.
Features
Month-to-date cost for the service you're viewing, in the page header. No switching. No dashboards. Just the number.
