Introducing OpenInfraQuote: Open-Source Cost Estimation

OpenInfraQuote is an MPL-2.0 licensed CLI tool for estimating infrastructure costs directly from Terraform plan and state files. Built by Terrateam with contributions from LocalStack, it integrates easily into existing CI/CD pipelines without requiring additional cloud services.

What is OpenInfraQuote?

OpenInfraQuote calculates infrastructure cost changes quickly from your Terraform files. It runs locally as a CLI, making integration simple without extra overhead. This is useful for teams needing immediate visibility into infrastructure costs.

Why We Built It

Managing infrastructure means controlling costs, not just deploying resources. OpenInfraQuote provides immediate, clear cost insights directly during planning. There are no vendor lock-ins, API keys, or usage limits.
