Teams and companies wanting a cloud cost management solution to optimize their Kubernetes at scale

About IBM Kubecost

IBM Kubecost provides real-time cost visibility and insights for teams using Kubernetes, helping you continuously reduce your cloud costs. Breakdown costs by any Kubernetes concepts, including deployment, service, namespace label, and more. View costs across multiple clusters in a single view or via a single API endpoint. Join Kubernetes costs with any external cloud services or infrastructure spend to have a complete picture. External costs can be shared and then attributed to any Kubernetes concept for a comprehensive view of spend. Receive dynamic recommendations for reducing spend without sacrificing performance. Prioritize key infrastructure or application changes for improving resource efficiency and reliability. Quickly catch cost overruns and infrastructure outage risks before they become a problem with real-time notifications. Preserve engineering workflows by integrating with tools like PagerDuty and Slack.

At Massdriver, we believe in prevention, not permission, letting ops teams enforce guardrails while developers deploy confidently. Our platform encodes your non-negotiables into self-service modules built with your preferred IaC (Terraform, Helm, OpenTofu, etc.) standardizing infrastructure across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes out-of-the-box. By bundling policy, security, and cost controls into functional IaC assets, Massdriver cuts overhead for ops teams and speeds developer workflows. Through a central service catalog, developers can provision what they need with integrated monitoring, secrets management, and RBAC baked in. No more brittle IaC pipelines; ephemeral CI/CD spins up automatically from each module’s tooling. Scale faster with unlimited cloud accounts and projects, all while reducing risk and ensuring compliance. Massdriver—fast by default, safe by design.
