Frugal Code is our new cost engineering platform that attributes managed service costs to your code, finds inefficient usage, provides Frugal Fixes that reduce your bill, and helps keep you out of cost traps for new and changing code.
Today we've reached Tech Preview! Development progress is moving fast at this stage. Keyboards are burning up, tokens are flowing. There are bugs and a lot of polish we haven't applied yet. In another day or another week we'll have much more to show, but all the same, I wanted to share a bit of our work in progress; a snapshot of where we are today. I think it will give you an idea of where we are headed.
So, join me if you will, for a quick tour of Frugal Code.
Connect Your Stack
First step is connecting Frugal to your source code, cloud services and observability system.
Frugal Discovers Your System
Frugal analyzes your code base, observability and cost data to discover the components in your system and begin attributing costs to code.
Follow the Money
The Cost-to-Code Explorer provides an application-centric breakdown of costs, which helps you find the components that are spending the most.
Investigate Components
Once you've identified a cost hotspot, you can take a detailed look at the component in question, and see which cost traps your application may have fallen into.
Apply Frugal Fixes
When a problem is found, we prepare a Frugal Fix that you can apply to correct the problem and start saving money.
Your Cost Engineering Copilot
Frugal has deep insights into your code, your costs and cloud-cost best practices and is there to help developers with all their cost-engineering challenges. Frugalbot is ready to collaborate via chat, in Github, or as an MCP for your coding agent.
Thanks for taking the tour, and please check back soon, we have lots of good stuff to come.
What do you think? What are we missing? Would love to hear from you at tpfeedback@frugal.co
