I'm Co-Founder and CEO of Vantage posting on behalf of our team that shipped this. Vantage is a cloud cost management platform. We also maintain https://ec2instances.info/ after buying the site a few years back. We've been hearing rumblings from the community looking for something similar for LLMs...so we built it.

The site is free and open-source and provides a centralized view of LLM model specifications, pricing, benchmarks, and hosting information. We're shipping early and looking for feedback. Give it a peek and let us know what you think.

We also have a lot of exciting projects right now for AI/Agent workflows - basically an agent that can auto-remediate cost related issues on behalf of our customers.

Vantage is an a16z-backed FinOps / Cloud Cost Management platform that helps 15,000+ organizations globally like Block, Vercel, Temporal, Rippling, FanDuel, CircleCI, etc manage their infrastructure costs. We are a ruby/rails shop and if you love infrastructure, it's a very interesting role as our customers are others like you looking to manage their infra spend.

We'd greatly appreciate contributions!

We actually recently made the decision to staff someone full time on the site just to maintain it for the community. Even the JSON file for the site gets hit hundreds of thousands of times per day...feels like it's become kind of the de-facto source of truth in the community for where to get reliable AWS pricing information and I believe its powering a pretty remarkable amount of downstream applications with how much usage its getting.

We acquired the site almost 5 years ago and want to continue to improve it for the community. If you have any cloud cost management needs, we're also able to help for our main business here: https://www.vantage.sh/

Awesome to see all the comments on it here!

This AWS EC2 site is just an open-source project and site we maintain for the benefit of the community. So it's not directly our business but it promotes our brand and is just a helpful site that I think should exist. It's very popular and has been around for about 15 years now.

Our main business hosted on the main domain of https://www.vantage.sh/ is around cloud cost management across 25 different providers (AWS, Azure, Datadog, OpenAI, Anthropic, etc) and the use-cases there about carving up one bill and showing specific costs back to engineers for them to be held accountable to, take action on, etc. Cloud costs and their impact on companies' margins is a big enough problem for vendors like us to exist and we're one player in a larger market.

Also as a shameless plug: Vantage covers this is exact type of cost hiccup. If you aren't already using it, we have a very generous free tier: https://www.vantage.sh/

Specifically working on our FinOps agent which can identify and remediate cloud infa cost related issues across AWS, Azure, Datadog, etc. The agent lives in Slack and surfaces cost savings initiatives for teams to inspect and approve for the agent to fix.

I thought there would be a greater unbundling to AWS or to cheaper providers but it seems like a good-sized portion of the market is just going back to managing their own hardware.

An agent that plugs into Slack and helps companies identify and remediate infrastructure cost-related issues.
