Pod-level Kubernetes cost visibility
with clear ownership

Podledger helps engineering and platform teams understand exactly where Kubernetes cloud costs come from, at pod and team level, so you can optimize confidently without breaking critical services.

Podledger Dashboard

Your cloud bill doesn’t tell you the full story

Kubernetes costs are complex. Cloud provider bills show totals, but rarely answer:

Which pods?

Which specific pods are driving this cost up? Total namspace costs hide the real culprits.

Which team?

Who owns this spend? Without clear attribution, accountability is impossible.

Unexpected?

Is this usage expected or accidental? Teams often optimize blindly.

Cost clarity at the level Kubernetes actually runs

Podledger breaks down cloud costs to pods and teams, giving you a clear view of how resources are being used in real time.

  • Understand cost at pod, workload, and team level
  • Identify unused or over-provisioned resources early
  • Assign clear ownership to cloud spend
  • Make informed optimization decisions with confidence
