We need to iterate on the output for usage-based resources, repeating the same "Monthly cost depends on usage" hundreds of times is not great! Maybe summarizing it as "you have 20 Lambda functions, all running on US-east-1, with this pricing" is better?

But you're right that it needs usage data, or models of usage data... For now, the CLI can fetch usage data from the cloud APIs for S3/Lambda/Dynamo and show engineers that functionX was invoked 2M times in the last 30 days: https://www.infracost.io/docs/features/usage_based_resources...

Does that functionality work for GCP too?
Not yet but users are asking for it, feel free to add a list of the resources you think would be useful to here: https://github.com/infracost/infracost/discussions/985#discu...
