Its free trial covers full optimization on one cluster for 30 days. CMP Free costs nothing and includes core CMP capabilities for up to 100 resources, forever. CloudBolt also lists custom billing, paid support packages and professional services.

Quali Torque automates infrastructure work from asset discovery and governance through self-service deployment and Day-2 operations. It takes Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, Helm, and native Kubernetes assets from Git repositories and organizes them into repeatable environments. Teams can launch designed environments through a self-service portal with role-based access. Cloud Copilot supports blueprint creation, infrastructure optimization, and environment management. Torque applies OPA policy-as-code to provisioning requests and automatically denies non-compliant requests. It monitors environments for configuration drift and can trigger remediation based on severity. Audit records include provisioning decisions, policy evaluations, configuration changes, and lifecycle events. Integrations include Terraform, Helm, ArgoCD, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, CircleCI, Bitbucket, GitLab, and GitHub; a REST API and plugins can automate deployment and teardown. Use cases include development, demos, training, proof-of-concept deployments, ML Operations, and Agentic AI. A Free plan is listed at free. Pro is $19 a month, billed at pay-as-you-go rates based on provisioned environments.
