Partners: MSPs and CSPs

Turn the cloud bill into budget for the next project.

Guaranteed Commitments free 30 to 47% of reservable spend on 30-day and 1-year terms, so the savings land this quarter. Your customers reinvest them in new workloads or in your FinOps service, and Archera carries the downside.

What the savings pay for

$500k a month of on-demand becomes $1.8M a year of budget

On 30-day Guaranteed Commitments the same workload runs at $350k a month: $150k of net savings every month, with the unused portion refunded if usage drops. That money has three places to go.

Archera pays partners on the commitments they bring. The terms are something we walk through on the first call.

The problem

The problem you live with today

Your customers expect you to run their cloud well, and that now includes the rate they pay. At MSP scale, commitment management is analysts per account and spreadsheets per renewal. Recommend a three-year commitment and you own the blame if the workload moves. Recommend nothing and a competitor walks in with a savings number.

Better together

A repeatable service you can attach to every account

The platform ingests billing across every payer and subscription, recommends coverage, and purchases Guaranteed Commitments in each customer’s own account. They carry a rebate guarantee, and you stay the account owner.

Who gets what
