Manage your Google Cloud costs

CUD savings for Google Cloud with Archera

Utilize commitments effectively, unlock new Google Cloud savings, and maximize your long-term purchasing strategy

GCP committed use discounts (CUDs) enable you to achieve significant discounts by committing to spend over a one or three-year period. Archera helps you maximize your use of these native commitments with our free platform, and expand their utility and flexibility by enabling you to transform them into short-term, Insured Commitments with a commitment term as brief as 30 days. After delivering immediate savings, we work with you to build a forward-looking GCP purchasing strategy so you can continue to optimize your costs as your usage evolves and grows.

GCP cost management

Minimize GCP pay-as-you-go spend with short-term Insured Commitments

Archera attaches a Moneyback Guarantee to Google Cloud committed use discounts, converting them into flexible-term Insured Commitments — Guaranteed Committed-Use Discounts (GCUDs — which enable you to unlock savings even on usage that won’t reliably continue for a year. Use GCUDs within your own payer account to unlock savings on spend that would otherwise be pay-as-you-go, and pay Archera a small insurance premium only when you save. If you are no longer able to utilize the underlying GCP commitment, Archera will rebate you for losses.
