Get Started

Quickstart

Sign in, connect your first provider, and see your costs and first savings recommendations.

Start with one provider

Connect a single cloud provider first. LevelFour has something to show you within a day of the first sync, and you can add the rest whenever you want.

Sign in

Open dashboard.levelfour.ai and sign in with the email address your organization invited. If your company signs in through an identity provider, Enterprise SSO covers how that works.

No invitation yet?

LevelFour sets up each organization before its first sign-in. Write to contact@levelfour.ai, or ask your LevelFour contact.

Connect your first provider

Open Connect Providers in the dashboard sidebar and pick a provider. Each one connects with a read-only credential you create in that provider's own console. Pick one to start:

All connectors lists every provider, what LevelFour reads from each, and the ones that are not self-service yet.

See your costs and first savings

Costs appear on Boards and under Costs and Usage after the first sync. Savings appear under Savings as LevelFour finds them, each with what it saves a month and what would change.

AWS costs arrive within a day of the first sync. Google Cloud billing data takes about two days, because Google delivers the first export rows 24 to 48 hours after you turn the export on.

Boards, Costs and Usage and Savings Recommendations walk through each page.

Add your team and connect your repositories

An admin or Access Manager invites teammates from Settings, then Members, and picks the role each person joins with. Members and roles covers what each role can do.

Connect GitHub or GitLab from Settings, then Integrations, so LevelFour can comment the cost of a change on its pull request and deliver accepted savings as pull requests. See Integrations.
