About LeftSize
LeftSize shifts cloud responsibility left to developers.
Stop chasing resource owners through spreadsheets. LeftSize scans your AWS and Azure infrastructure and creates GitHub issues directly where developers work.
Detect: Cost waste, security risks, governance gaps, and end-of-life resources.
Every issue includes: Clear explanations, estimated savings, step-by-step remediation, and ready-to-use CLI commands.
Developers know their resources best. LeftSize gives them context to act.
Why LeftSize?
Cloud optimization shouldn't live in spreadsheets managed by a central team. The developers who deploy resources understand them best - they just need visibility. LeftSize brings cloud issues directly into GitHub, where developers already work.
What LeftSize detects:
• Cost Optimization - Idle VMs, unattached disks, oversized instances, unused load balancers, orphaned snapshots, missing reservations • Security - Unencrypted storage and databases, public S3 buckets, open security groups, missing encryption at rest • Governance - Missing ownership tags, naming violations, policy compliance drift, untagged resources • End-of-Life - Deprecated VM series, outdated database versions, expiring support, service retirements
How it works:
• Install the LeftSize GitHub App • Add the LeftSize Action to run on schedule • LeftSize scans your cloud and creates issues with actionable guidance
Every issue includes:
• Problem explanation and business impact • Estimated monthly savings or risk assessment • Step-by-step remediation instructions • CLI commands and Terraform snippets • Alternative approaches and trade-offs
Interact naturally via issue comments:
• @leftsize explain - Detailed context • @leftsize howto - Step-by-step guide • @leftsize prompt - use your AI agent to help out • @leftsize impact - Cost/risk analysis • @leftsize snooze 14d - Temporarily dismiss • @leftsize ignore reason="intended" - Accept risk
Supported clouds: AWS and Azure
Safe by design: Read-only scanning. No write access to your infrastructure. OIDC authentication - no long-lived secrets.
LeftSize: The cloud optimization platform that meets developers where they are.
