As Head of Product and Revenue at Tinder, I oversaw the team that managed our relationship with AWS and the significant cloud spend that accompanied it. It took an entire team and thousands of man hours every year for us to reign in our cloud costs—despite those efforts, we still faced uncertainty whether we had missed anything—which we undoubtedly did.
With Antimetal, that all changes.
If you're an AWS customer, this is one of those no-brainer solutions once you discover it.
With AWS On-Demand pricing, you have no long term commitments and maximum flexibility based on your usage — but you'll pay an arm and a leg.
With AWS Reserved, AWS instances are basically set aside just for you — for periods of 2-3 years. So you might pay less but you're locked into a long term commitment. If you're a startup, your needs may change and so you can't risk taking the long term bet just to save some money.
Enter Antimetal: they use AI to analyze your AWS usage and procure services only based on what you need, saving you money and avoiding long term lock-in.
They're able to do this by creating a secondary marketplace for your Reserved contracts — and they automate the buying, selling, and transferring of these commitments among their customers.
Win-win-win.
And, best of all — it's free for startups for the first year, and then after that, Antimetal takes its cut from the money they save you.
Like I said: no-brainer! 🧠
Congrats on the launch! 🚀
This is a great product. As someone who has worked with AWS for years, Startups struggled with managing costs and keeping expenses under control. This software gonna be a game-changer for startups.
One of the best things about this software is how it helps startups save on AWS costs. As a startup, every dollar counts, and managing AWS expenses can be a major challenge. With this software, I think startups can save a significant amount of money on their AWS bill, which can be reinvested into other areas of the business. This can help startups to grow and scale more quickly.

You've also got some exciting people down as makers 😅🔥
The idea of automating AWS cost optimization and making it effortless and risk-free sounds appealing for businesses that use AWS. AWS offers a range of pricing models, and managing costs can be a complex and time-consuming task for organizations. Therefore, any tool that can simplify and automate this process can potentially provide significant value.
Excellent product. Cloud cost is a must-watch for every SaaS startup and the right tools can help optimize the spend. Good luck and looking forward to partnering with you!
