GreenPilot is running a controlled pilot for European SMEs on AWS. The assessment is free, read-only, and produces a structured optimization report covering cloud waste, savings potential, carbon impact, and governance observations.
The pilot is open to European SMEs running workloads on AWS. Applications are reviewed individually — onboarding is not automatic.
Organisations in the EU or EEA running meaningful AWS workloads — EC2, S3, RDS, or managed services — with monthly spend typically above €500.
Engineering or operations teams managing AWS without a dedicated FinOps, cloud economics, or sustainability specialist. GreenPilot is built for exactly this situation.
Companies that need to understand their cloud footprint for GDPR data residency, NIS2 risk posture, or CSRD sustainability reporting — but lack the tooling to do so systematically.
The pilot starts with a free read-only assessment. No production access is required. No changes are made to your environment.
Idle instances, oversized compute, unattached storage, and underused managed services — identified by type, region, and estimated monthly cost.
Estimated monthly and annual savings ranked by impact and implementation effort. Estimates are indicative and depend on your actual environment data.
Estimated cloud-related CO₂e based on your AWS usage and regional electricity grid intensity. Methodology is in active development — estimates are indicative.
Cloud configuration observations relevant to GDPR data residency, NIS2 risk posture, and CSRD emissions reporting readiness.
Recommended next steps ranked by cost saving, emissions impact, risk level, and implementation effort. Each action requires your explicit approval before anything runs.
After the free assessment, you can choose to proceed with a paid optimization phase. Actions execute only after you review and approve each one individually. Scope and pricing are agreed separately.
Three stages. The free assessment comes first. You decide whether to proceed after seeing the report.
You grant GreenPilot read-only access to your AWS account via a least-privilege IAM role. GreenPilot pulls usage, billing, and configuration data — no production resources are modified. The assessment typically completes within 5–10 business days of onboarding.
GreenPilot walks you through the report findings. You review the recommendations, ask questions, and decide which — if any — optimization actions you want to pursue. There is no obligation to proceed further.
If you decide to proceed, GreenPilot executes approved optimizations through controlled workflows. You review and approve each action individually before anything runs. No automated production changes occur without explicit sign-off. Scope and commercial terms are agreed separately before this phase begins.
The free assessment requires read-only access to your AWS account. You configure and control the permissions. You can revoke access at any time.
Important: Any estimated savings, emissions reductions, or compliance outcomes in the assessment report are indicative only. They depend on actual AWS usage and configuration and do not constitute a guarantee of results. See Terms of Service for full disclaimer.
