The Details link should open the cost estimate in Infracost Cloud, is that not working?

one idea we have is to add recommendations, after we have the GitHub App integration we can do a lot more fun stuff like open recommendation PRs for you

09/16/2022, 5:09 PMah interesting , the other Idea is to focus on "twitter bots" How do we prove to C level that this is all accurate
that the right metrics for resources are being calculated
that is a long term statement which will need some transparency for none tech people to understand via dashboard , and to see what the infracost is comparing too

yeah, for the cost estimates ppl can compare it with the cloud cost calcs. For actuals, it’ll be compared to the bill - we’re prototyping ideas around that too

cloud cost calcs ---> API pipe into your dashboard

I guess they’ll want to see actuals vs estimates?

09/16/2022, 5:11 PMwhy make people use Calc
Imagine Bill manager has a bill in front of them , they might want to get close to seeing 1-1 relationship between infracost and the physical / virtual bill
🙂
this always comes up even with the platform billing interfaces
anyway just thoughts to think about
