AWS Cost and Usage Reports questions, answered.
How does Menza connect to AWS Cost and Usage Reports?
You connect with an AWS access key pair scoped for Cost Explorer, pasted in once. The keys are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI; Menza signs each request server-side, so your credentials never travel anywhere else.
What can Menza answer about my AWS cost data?
Cloud spending and usage by service, account, region or tag; forecasts; savings-plan and reservation coverage; rightsizing recommendations; and spending anomalies. Ask what drove last week's jump, what this month will finish at, or which services are growing fastest.
Is my AWS data safe with Menza?
Yes. Your access keys are encrypted, never exposed to the AI, and used only for the access you grant. This connector is read-only — Menza never modifies anything in your AWS account; it reads cost data and reports back.
Can Menza catch spend anomalies before the invoice lands?
Yes — ask at any time and Menza reads AWS's anomaly detection results alongside your live daily spend, so an unusual jump shows up while the month is still running, not when finance opens the invoice weeks later.
