Born from frustration, built with purpose
Thrusher was born in 2021 when our founders—former AWS engineers and startup CTOs—found themselves spending countless hours wrestling with AWS billing dashboards and spreadsheets trying to understand where their cloud budget was going.
They realized that cloud cost optimization was broken. The existing tools were either too complex, too expensive, or provided insights that were too generic to be actionable. Engineering teams needed something different—a solution that understood their workloads and could provide specific, one-click recommendations.
So they built Thrusher: an AI-powered platform that automatically analyzes your AWS usage, identifies optimization opportunities, and helps you implement changes with confidence. No more guesswork, no more spreadsheets, no more surprise bills.
Today, Thrusher helps 500+ engineering teams save an average of 40% on their AWS costs. But we're just getting started. Our vision is to make cloud cost optimization as effortless as using the cloud itself.
