Pricing

AWS assessments from $495

The smallest assessment scans your AWS account and hands you the quick wins: fixes that pay the assessment back. Bigger environments take more work, so every assessment gets a fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed in writing before any paid work starts.

Free 30-minute intro call, no commitment. You get a fixed price before any paid work starts.

Six assessments, one pricing model

Every assessment starts from $495 with a fixed scope and price. Open one to see what it covers and what you get at the end. Not sure which fits? That is what the free intro call is for.

How pricing works

You know the price before any paid work starts

Every assessment follows the same three steps, whichever track you pick. The price depends on the size and complexity of what we assess, and you see that number before you commit.

  1. Free, 30 minutes

    Intro call

    We talk through your AWS setup, what is going wrong and what is changing, then recommend the assessment that fits.

    • No cost and no commitment
    • The right track for the problem
  2. Fixed, from $495

    Scope and price in writing

    You get the agreed scope and one fixed price, based on the size and complexity of your environment. Paid work only starts once you approve it.

    • Fixed scope, fixed price
    • No hourly billing
    • No surprise invoices
  3. The assessment

    Report and walkthrough

    We run the assessment and deliver what is wrong, why it matters and what to fix first, then walk your team through it.

    • Written report with findings and priorities
    • Walkthrough call with your team
    • Optional fixed-price quote for the fix

Buy it through AWS Marketplace to keep procurement and billing inside your AWS account.

FAQ

Assessment pricing questions

Is the intro call free?

Yes. The intro meeting is always free. We use it to understand your requirements, the AWS problems you want to solve, and which assessment fits best before any paid work starts.

How much access do you need to our AWS accounts?

For an assessment, a time-limited IAM role with only the permissions the review needs. All activity is logged in your own CloudTrail, and we remove the access as soon as the assessment ends. No long-lived credentials are ever created.

What if Danny is unavailable?

Everything we deliver lives in your own repository and documentation: the report, the roadmap and any code we ship. Your team, or any AWS engineer, can pick it up without us. If you want us to fix the findings, you get a fixed-price quote after the assessment, and taking it is optional.

How is the assessment priced?

Assessments start from $495. The final fixed price depends on the size and complexity of your AWS environment, but we confirm that scope during the free intro call before any paid work starts. The intro call is free of charge and there is no commitment required.

Is remediation included in the assessment price?

No. The assessment gives you the findings, roadmap, and recommendations. If you want us to remediate the issues afterward, we provide a separate implementation estimate based on the assessment outcome, your account structure, environment size, and the amount of work required.

Which assessment should we start with?

You do not need to know that before booking. On the free intro call we discuss your AWS setup, requirements, and constraints, then recommend the assessment that best matches the problem.

Can we implement the recommendations ourselves?

Yes. If you want to handle the work yourself, you only pay for the assessment. You receive the findings, priorities, and practical next steps your team can use internally.

When do you recommend targeted remediation instead of a Landing Zone?

Targeted remediation is better when the assessment finds contained issues: a risky workload, a cost spike, a weak migration plan, or a specific compliance gap. The Landing Zone is a better fit when the AWS foundation itself keeps creating security, account, maintenance, or delivery issues.

When do you recommend the Landing Zone foundation?

We recommend it when account boundaries, IAM, logging, security controls, provisioning, and platform maintenance are creating repeated problems. The goal is to give developers a secure foundation so they can focus on building applications instead of managing, securing, and optimizing AWS infrastructure.

Do cloud migration and EU cloud migration start with an assessment?

Yes. Migration work needs a current-state review before we can give a responsible plan. For EU cloud migration, the assessment also checks sovereignty, compliance, data residency, and landing zone requirements.

How does billing work?

You can pay by direct invoice or through your existing AWS bill via our AWS Marketplace listings. Marketplace billing can be used for assessments and follow-up implementation when procurement prefers consolidated AWS invoicing.
