Hands-off automation, or approval-gated purchases
The savings of a long-term commitment, with none of the lock-in
Savings plans cut your bill, but they ask for a multi-year usage forecast no one can make. North gives you the discounts and absorbs the risk, so coverage flexes as your workloads do.

Stop trading flexibility for cloud savings
Today you pick one. Commit for three years and you're locked into usage you can't predict. Stay on-demand and you pay full price. But your workloads migrate, scale, and retire long before any contract expires. North gives you both: commitment-level discounts on your usage, while the contract and the forecasting risk sit with us.

Their Savings Their Words
Just try it, it's easy to adopt and the value is immediate. You will regret not using it sooner.”
North took 5 minutes to setup and showed me we could save 40%. To this day, it's the fastest & clearest demo of ROI I have ever seen in business.”
The flexibility and ease of integration really stood out. If someone told me from the start it would be this easy to try, use, and save, I wouldn’t have believed them. But it is. And the savings are real.”

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about dynamic cloud optimization.
How does North hold commitments without affecting my accounts?
North purchases savings plans in our own accounts and applies the discounts to your linked AWS account. You see the savings. We hold the contracts.
What if my usage drops below my coverage?
North reallocates the unused commitment across our pool. You only pay for what you use.
Is there a way to automate savings plan purchasing with no lock-in risk at all?
Yes. North's Flexbot holds the contract itself, so there's no lock-in on your side, regardless of how your usage moves.
Which clouds does Flexbot support?
Flexbot runs on AWS, through Compute, Database, and SageMaker Savings Plans. GCP, Azure, and reserved instances are covered through Autobot instead, which automates purchasing directly inside your own accounts.
How is this different from Autobot?
Flexbot is fully managed and risk-free, with commitments held in North's accounts. Autobot automates laddering inside your own accounts, for teams that want to own the contracts.
How can I offer clients cloud commitment savings without taking on the risk myself?
North holds the commitments and applies the discounts to client accounts, so a reseller can pass along the savings without carrying the contract risk.
How fast can I get started?
Most customers are live within days. No procurement cycle, no forecasting exercise.
Do I lose visibility into my commitments with North.cloud?
No. Every commitment and savings calculation is visible in North.
What happens at renewal?
North manages the lifecycle. There is no renewal cycle on your side.
