Quick and easy
Three steps to your savings report.
About 5 minutes to connect. Results typically within 24 hours. You can connect multiple AWS accounts and see every recommendation in one place.
Connect read-only roles
CloudFix uses AWS’s recommended pattern for cross-account access: read-only IAM roles deployed through a CloudFormation stack. No long-term credentials, passwords or access keys.
CloudFix reads what it needs
It creates and queries a Cost and Usage Report and reads resource configurations. Nothing in your account changes.
See your savings
A read-only scan generates savings recommendations by service, typically within 24 hours. This is where you find out how much you can save.
After the assessment
You approve what runs. Nothing changes until you do.
Step 1 · Finder
It spots the waste.
The finder reads your account with a read-only role and flags every gp2 volume that can move to gp3.

You approve it.
It appears in your Recommendations view with what it would save. Nothing runs until you switch it on.
EBS Retype Gp2 to Gp3 Volumes
12 volumesStep 3 · Fixer
It makes the change.
The fixer runs as an AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook in your account. It takes a snapshot, retypes the volume and logs the execution.
