Kubernetes Cost Intelligence
Your cluster is burning money.
Recon shows you where.
Namespace-level cost breakdown, idle resource detection, and network cost tracking — so you can cut waste without cutting reliability.
The Problem
kubectl can't tell you what things cost.
You know your AWS bill is growing. You know Kubernetes is a big chunk of it. But you can't answer the simplest question: which namespace, team, or service is responsible?
35%
of Kubernetes spend is wasted on idle or over-provisioned resources
$14B
wasted annually on unused cloud resources across the industry
72%
of teams can't attribute K8s costs to specific services or teams
Capabilities
From "how much?" to "here's where to cut."
Namespace-level costs
Per-pod granularity
See exactly how much each namespace, deployment, and pod costs. No more guessing which team is burning the budget.
Idle resource detection
Find waste instantly
Spot pods requesting 4 CPU but using 0.2. Recon flags idle resources and quantifies the waste in dollars.
Right-sizing recommendations
Actionable savings
Get concrete suggestions: "Reduce request from 2Gi to 512Mi, save $47/mo." Copy the YAML, apply, done.
Network cost tracking
Cross-AZ visibility
Cross-AZ and cross-region traffic adds up fast. Recon maps every byte to a dollar so you can optimize routing.
Budget alerts
No surprises
Set per-namespace or per-team budgets. Get alerted before you blow past them, not after the invoice arrives.
Multi-cluster, any cloud
EKS · GKE · AKS
One dashboard for all your clusters across any cloud provider. Compare costs side by side.
How It Works
Deploy in minutes. Save in days.
Install the agent
One Helm chart, one command. The agent runs as a DaemonSet and starts collecting metrics immediately.
See your costs
Within an hour, Recon maps resource usage to real cloud pricing. Every namespace, pod, and service gets a price tag.
Cut the waste
Get actionable recommendations with exact YAML changes. Apply them and watch your bill drop.
