Infracost is a tool that estimates cloud infrastructure costs before deployment by analyzing infrastructure-as-code files from Terraform, CloudFormation, CDK, and other frameworks across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Developers use it to catch cost surprises early in the development process, integrate cost checks into CI/CD pipelines, and make informed decisions about resource configurations. It helps shift financial responsibility and awareness to the engineering team rather than discovering costs only after resources are deployed.
