Show HN: Cloud Inefficiency Audit – a local CLI to audit your Hetzner bill
Cloud Inefficiency Audit is a local command-line tool that analyzes Hetzner cloud bills to identify wasted spending and suggest savings opportunities.
Background
Hetzner is a German cloud provider known for low prices compared to AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure. Many developers choose Hetzner for cost savings, but its billing console offers less tooling than the big providers, making it easy to waste money on idle VMs, oversized instances, or unused snapshots without realizing it. This GitHub project is a command-line tool (CLI) that runs on your own machine, parses your Hetzner invoice data, and flags obvious inefficiencies so you can downsize or delete resources. It is open-source and aimed at solo devs and small teams who want a quick, local check rather than a full cloud-cost platform.
