There are a number of providers in this space. You're correct that for this specific feature, the main difference is the cost to the customer. Usage publicly states that they charge 20% of the savings found. We've heard that other providers have charged up to 30% of the savings found which seems predatory in nature.

Vantage is trying to more philosophically align with the customer and provide the lowest cost possible at 5% of the savings found. These are ultimately your savings and you should have as much of them as possible.

Lastly, this is just one feature we provide in addition to the other cost visibility features listed at https://vantage.sh/ under the "features" tab. Vantage also has cost visibility support for GCP, Fastly and other providers of Azure, Snowflake and Datadog on the way.
