Isolate the per-GB data-processing charges on NAT Gateway, Network Firewall, Transit Gateway plus Site-to-Site VPN connection fees -- the recurring tax Cloud Spectra replaces with a flat EC2 fee -- and see your savings by region and month.
-Bytes data-processing on NAT/Firewall/Transit GW plus Site-to-Site VPN connection-hours -- all charges Cloud Spectra's gateway replaces. It does not count data-transfer/egress, which Cloud Spectra does not eliminate -- so the number is defensible on your own bill. We use your actual billed cost (Cost Explorer UnblendedCost), not an estimate, so it stays correct as AWS changes prices.Grant read-only access (one role, you revoke anytime)
Deploy a CloudFormation role that lets Cloud Spectra read only your Cost Explorer data via a scoped cross-account role with an ExternalId. We never receive your credentials, and every call shows in your CloudTrail. Copy the template or use the quick-create link, then paste the Role ARN below.
Whole org in one role: deploy this in your AWS Organizations management (payer) account and the scan covers every member account (broken out per account in the results). Deploy in a standalone or single member account and it covers just that account. Same template either way -- no extra permissions, no StackSets.
Connect
/api/scan (a Cloudflare Worker that assumes your role server-side -- no CORS, no credentials shared). Endpoint not deployed yet? Use the Static tab or Demo.Read-only IAM policy (optional -- CloudShell already runs as you)
If you want a dedicated scoped identity, attach this policy. Otherwise just run the scan in CloudShell under your console login.
Run this in AWS CloudShell
Open AWS CloudShell (aws-cli + jq are preinstalled). It runs entirely in your account; nothing is sent to Cloud Spectra. Run it in your Organizations management (payer) account to capture every member account in one pass -- it groups cost by linked account automatically. In a standalone or single member account it just returns that account (assuming the management account has not restricted member access to Cost Explorer).

Sample data loads automatically below -- a representative multi-account, multi-region dataset so you can see exactly what the scan produces before connecting anything.
