Progress
First partner write-up for CloudWise, and the best part is what went wrong.
By Rick Wise
Techlio is a dev agency in Dallas and Lahore. Most of their clients run on AWS with nobody watching the bill. Mahsam, their founder, ran my free CLI on a client account from his own laptop, read-only, with nothing sent to me. He caught three findings that looked wrong before anything went to his client. He was right: three false positives in my checks. I fixed all three and shipped the same day. The lesson: an agency won't put a tool in front of a client until it trusts it. That trust came from being wrong in public and fixing it fast, not from the feature list. CloudWise is my own product. I'm looking for two or three more agencies that build on AWS for clients to try it on one account.
