Looking to reduce your AWS costs without sacrificing performance or uptime?

AutoSpotting automatically converts expensive On-Demand instances in your stateless Autoscaling groups (ASGs) to more cost-effective and performant Spot instances, reliably and without any configuration changes.

Results and Pricing

For each $1000 worth of capacity that AutoSpotting can convert to Spot it typically generates about $500-600 of savings (results may vary depending on the current Spot pricing for your instances). It will automatically charge you a tenth of the savings, so about $50-60, through the next AWS bill.

We also have a perpetual free tier for evaluating it on small instances such as T3/T4g nano or micro, for as long as your Spot savings remain below $0.01/hour.

What AutoSpotting does for you

Reduces your AWS costs: AutoSpotting replaces On-Demand instances with cheaper but identically configured Spot instances, saving you money.

Requires no configruaton changes: It can take over all your groups from all regions, and even across AWS Organizations or just enable/disable it temporarily, without requiring changes for every single group.

Increases Spot uptime: Your Spot instances are diversified across families and generations of the 600+ available instance types, resulting in fewer Spot terminations and increased uptime compared to alternative solutions.

Runs cheaper and newest instances available: AutoSpotting prioritizes instance types in a way that optimizes for cost savings, uptime, and preferring newer hardware for more performance and a lower carbon footprint.

Avoids user impact: in the event of Spot terminations AutoSpotting gracefully drains your load balancer connections and launches new Spot instances as early as possible to avoid production impact.

Gives you the capacity you need: when Spot capacity is not available AutoSpotting automatically launches diversified on-demand instances to ensure you always have capacity in your groups.

Gives you visibility into your savings: You can conveniently estimate savings before installing AutoSpotting, and receive regular savings reports to see how much it saves you once you use it.
