About Wellar

The senior AWS architect that works for you.

Wellar connects to your AWS organization through a read-only role, scores every account against all six Well-Architected pillars, and returns specific, dollar-quantified actions — with the math in plain English. The expert that's always running, available the moment you connect an account.

What it is

The cloud architect you can't afford to hire — running on your accounts.

Connecting takes minutes. You launch a CloudFormation stack that creates a single read-only IAM role in your account — no agents, no SDK, no writes. From there Wellar reads your organization and gets to work, the same way a senior architect would if they could see everything at once.

It grades every account against the AWS Well-Architected Framework's six pillars and ranks what it finds by impact, not alphabetically. What comes back is specific: which EC2 instance to resize, which gp2 volume to migrate to gp3, which security control isn't wired — each one with the dollar figure and the reasoning written out in plain English.

Nothing vague, nothing to interpret. A name, a place, a fix.

Connects in minutes

One read-only role via CloudFormation. No agents, no SDK, no writes. Wellar reads your accounts and never touches a resource — revoke any time by deleting the stack.

Scores every pillar

Each account is graded against all six Well-Architected pillars — cost, reliability, security, performance, operational excellence, and sustainability — and re-scanned as your estate changes.

Hands you the fix

Specific, dollar-quantified actions with the math in plain English: which instance to resize, which gp2 volume to migrate to gp3, which control to wire — and what each one saves.

Why it exists

Most teams can't justify a senior architect. The bill doesn't care.

A senior cloud architect costs $200k+ a year, and most teams can't justify the hire. But the cost of not having one doesn't go away — it shows up in the AWS bill, and in the outages, all the same.

Cost dashboards make this worse, not better. They show you numbers; they don't tell you what to do. You can stare at a spend chart for an hour and still not know which change actually moves it.

Wellar is the architect that fills that gap — always running, always current, available the moment you connect an account. Not a dashboard to babysit, not a consultant who leaves with the context. The expert advice, on tap.

Ways to work with us

One platform. Three ways in.

Start free and let the platform run, add an ongoing human review, or bring in a senior engineer for a one-time deep audit. The same engine powers all three.

Self-serve platform

The architect, always on

Connect your AWS organization and the platform scans continuously, scoring every account and surfacing what to fix next. The full product, self-serve.

Free while your AWS spend stays under $3,000/mo across up to 3 accounts, then the spend-based Architect plan.

Ongoing add-on

WAR Drift Monitor

A human-reviewed watch on your Well-Architected posture. We catch the drift between scans — new risk, new spend, new gaps — and tell you before it bites.

An ongoing, human-in-the-loop layer on top of the platform.

One-time engagement

Cost & Well-Architected Audit

A senior AWS engineer runs the platform against your estate, validates every finding, and delivers decision-ready reports your whole team can act on — in 72 hours.

A fixed-fee expert audit, delivered in 72 hours, money-back guaranteed.

Our mission
Make senior-architect-grade cloud guidance accessible to every team — not just the ones who can afford the hire.
Who's behind it

Built by people who've felt the pain.

The people behind Wellar have spent years on the painful side of AWS — the bills that crept up a thousand dollars at a time, the audits that took weeks and left a PDF nobody read, the outage retrospectives that always traced back to a single-AZ database someone meant to fix.

We built the tool we wished we'd had: one that does the architect's work continuously and says exactly what to do about it. No marketing tone, no advisory noise — just the work, the way an engineer you trust would hand it to you.
