AWS Partner

AWS could fund this engagement.

The assessment is free by design. If you continue into a track, many engagements qualify for AWS partner funding programs, which can make the implementation free as well.

We check your eligibility during the free assessment
We prepare and file the funding application for you
If it qualifies, the whole engagement can cost you nothing

What Edge is

Senior engineers reading your real spend, on a platform that stays after they leave.

What we do

Baseline your cost from billing data, find the waste, and put an owner and a value on every finding.

What you get

The Edge Report, a findings readout with a senior engineer, and 6 months of SKYXOPS Standard.

Next steps

Choose a track, or stop. The report and the platform are yours either way.

How the two weeks run

Ten working days from access to readout. Your team spends about four hours in total.

The Edge Report, reviewed with a senior engineer

Where your pipelines allow, we also replay last quarter's merges and price each one. Optional, and never required.

Read-only. Scoped. Nothing leaves your account.

We request a read-only role: IAM ReadOnlyAccess on AWS, Reader on Azure, Viewer on GCP. Pipeline access is separate, optional, and read-only.

We analyze billing data, resource metadata, and pipeline configuration. We do not access application data, customer data, or production workloads. No production data leaves your environment.

Access is revocable at any time and terminates at the end of the engagement.

What this is not

No sales team on the readout call

A senior engineer presents the findings. Nobody else joins.

No commitment required

No contract, and nothing that quietly converts to paid.

The report is yours regardless

Whatever you decide afterwards, you keep it.

If there is nothing worth doing, we will tell you

We would rather say so in week two than sell you an engagement.

Yes. Every Edge assessment includes six months of the Standard tier on your own accounts, whether or not you hire us for implementation afterwards. No card, no auto-renewal. At the end of the six months you choose whether to continue on a paid plan.

Yes. The Edge Report is built from your billing data and read-only account access, which every estate has. Where your pipelines allow, we also replay and price last quarter's merges, but nothing in the assessment depends on it.

AWS runs partner funding programs that can offset or cover the cost of qualifying engagements delivered by approved partners. During the free assessment we check whether your engagement would qualify, and if it does, we prepare and file the application. Eligibility is decided by AWS, so we never promise it in advance.

We tell you. We would rather say so in week two than sell you an engagement. You keep the Edge Report and the six months of Standard regardless of what you decide next.

Early engagements include a US-based fintech running $3M a year across AWS and Azure.
