AWS Free Tier
Blocks autonomously optimizes your AWS costs. Our platform continuously manages Savings Plans and commitments, detects waste, and delivers savings without engineering effort - built for startups and scaleups.
Overview
**Blocks - Autonomous Cloud Cost Optimization **
Blocks is an Autonomous Cloud Control platform that continuously optimizes AWS costs for startups and scaleups. Instead of one-off audits and dashboards that leave the work with your engineers, Blocks acts: it manages your commitment portfolio, surfaces waste, and captures savings on an ongoing basis - so your team can stay focused on building product.
**How it works **
Blocks connects to your AWS organization through a least-privilege IAM role - no agents, no code changes. The platform analyzes your usage across all accounts and continuously aligns your Savings Plans portfolio with your actual workload, capturing discounts that static, manually purchased commitments leave on the table. Alongside commitment management, Blocks scans your environment for waste and optimization opportunities - from idle and orphaned resources to storage-class and configuration improvements - and presents them with clear, validated savings figures.
**Key capabilities **
- Autonomous Savings Plans management - continuous, data-driven commitment portfolio management that adapts to your usage instead of locking you into guesswork
- Waste detection - identification of unused, idle, and orphaned resources across your entire AWS organization
- Optimization recommendations - rightsizing, storage, and configuration findings validated against your actual billing data
- Full multi-account coverage - works across your whole AWS organization out of the box
- Transparent reporting - track realized savings and cost development over time
- No engineering effort - onboarding in minutes via IAM role; no agents, no workload changes
**Who it's for **
Blocks is built for startups and scaleups spending from five figures per month on AWS - teams that want enterprise-grade cost optimization without hiring a dedicated FinOps function.
Highlights
- Agentic DevOps for AWS: Blocks' AI agents don't just recommend - they act. From Savings Plans management to waste cleanup, optimizations are executed autonomously and safely in your environment.

Dimensions summary
This listing has one pricing dimension: Free (default), billed by usage units at no charge. There are no tiers, seats, or instance sizes to choose from. You pay nothing to use the product itself. There is no setup fee, subscription, or credit card required. The vendor earns money by taking a share of the savings it identifies on your cloud bill, so cost to you is tied to results rather than a fixed fee. You can cancel at any time without a commitment term.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The software itself carries no charge under the Free dimension. Instead, the vendor earns a share of the cloud savings it identifies on your bill. If it does not reduce your bill, you pay nothing. Cost tracks results, not a fixed fee or usage meter.
No. The vendor uses read-only access and does not touch your infrastructure or code. Your billing invoice comes from Blocks instead of AWS, but you keep control of your environment. There are no code changes and no lock-in.
There is no subscription term or upfront commitment. You can cancel at any time with no questions asked. Since the software is free and the vendor is paid only from savings, cancelling ends the arrangement without a fixed fee owed.
