Show HN: Bill My Cloud, a simple no-nonsense AWS cost estimator

https://billmycloud.org
4•loanjoe•2h ago
I built Bill My Cloud because I wanted a faster way to estimate AWS costs during early planning, without navigating the confusing official calculator or recording on spreadsheets.

This started as a simple calculator, but I’ve been expanding it based on real usage needs and AWS services. What it does

- Estimate AWS costs with minimal inputs and sensible defaults - Instant PDF export of the estimate (useful for sharing or approvals) - Suggestions for cheaper configurations or cost-saving changes - Shareable config links so others can view the same setup - Optional cloud save for configurations so you can revisit and tweak later - Commonly used currency converted pricing (conversion rates auto-updated every 12 hours)

No signup required to try it!

How I expect it to be used

- Early-stage planning and sanity checks - Comparing instance types, regions, and storage choices - Sharing rough estimates with teammates or clients - Learning how small config changes affect cloud cost

What it’s not

- It’s NOT meant to replace final AWS billing or enterprise forecasting - Numbers are estimates based on public pricing, not invoices

Roadmap

- Addition of other major cloud platforms - Commonly used stack templates (Lamp, Lemp etc) - Export compatibility with terraform

Pricing data comes from public AWS pricing. Will be actively improving it to ensure accuracy.

It's currently in Alpha. Bugs are to be expected. Please report them via comments! Feedbacks appreciated!
