We help engineering teams cut SageMaker spend and eliminate security risk — with a live audit dashboard, exportable PDF report, and production-ready baseline deployed through code. In a typical engagement, our most common finding is an ml.m5.4xlarge real-time endpoint running at under 15% utilization — recoverable waste of $6,000–$12,000 per year, per endpoint.

What We Find

Common SageMaker Cost & Security Issues

These are the findings that appear in almost every SageMaker environment we audit. Our live dashboard surfaces all four — with severity ratings, savings estimates, and a prioritized fix order — delivered within 5 business days.

Over-Provisioned Endpoints

Instances are sized "just in case" and never revisited. Right-sizing and choosing the right inference pattern can unlock meaningful savings.

Idle Notebooks & Compute

Notebooks, endpoints, and supporting resources run longer than needed. Simple guardrails and schedules reduce waste quickly.

Auto-Scaling Misconfigurations

Fixed capacity wastes spend at idle and underperforms during spikes. Auto-scaling with sensible bounds keeps costs predictable.

Security Drift

IAM roles accumulate over-broad permissions with each new project. In a recent audit we found a SageMaker execution role with s3:* on every bucket in the account — a single misconfiguration that would have failed any SOC 2 review.

How It Works

Our 5-Day Audit Process

Kickoff & Read-Only Access

Day 1

Short kickoff to confirm scope and goals. You grant read-only AWS access (setup guide provided). We inventory SageMaker resources and the surrounding AWS services that support your ML workflow.

Cost + Security Analysis

Days 2–3

Review utilization and spend drivers (CloudWatch + cost data) and assess security posture across IAM, encryption, and network access. We identify quick wins and the highest-impact fixes.

Report & Roadmap

Day 4

Deliver a prioritized findings report with savings estimates, risk notes, and a clear remediation roadmap. Includes an executive summary plus technical details your team can action.

Readout & Next Steps

Day 5

30-minute readout of findings and recommendations. We align on next steps—your team implements, or we deploy the secure SageMaker baseline and provide optional monthly support.
