{"id":75947,"title":"Pump India - Save 60% on AWS for free, now live in India 🇮🇳💚","tagline":"With group buying and AI, startups can save like the big tech","body":"**TL;DR -**\n\n[**Forbes called us ‘Costco of Cloud compute’ recently**](https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidprosser/2023/10/05/how-pump-promises-to-slash-your-runaway-cloud-computing-costs/). With group buying and AI, Pump can save you up to 60% on your AWS compute spend without any engineering effort or financial risk. We signed up over 250+ customers in the last 6 months, including over 50+ YC companies.\n\n![](https://bookface.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=75947\u0026key=user_uploads/1048566/a5968ddd-cd3b-4eb2-8a64-79f8ab7dea8f)\n\n**How does Pump work?**\n\nAWS incentivizes long term commitments, 1 year to 3 year with high discounts. Not only does this require careful planning \u0026 thorough future forecasting, but small startups are often not able to commit for such long periods. That’s where Pump comes in, we bring companies together under one umbrella - as long as there’s other companies within the same region and using the same instance as you, Pump rotates these commitments across Company A to B and so on; thus shrinking a 3 year commitment to just about a month; maximum savings and minimal risk 😀\n\n![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/634b9f9236d9ffdc11dc0eb6/65041ea8580984bf8c7e4065_pump-schema.webp)\n\n**What’s new with this launch?**\n\nPreviously, we could work with companies around the world with the exception of India (irony much?). For legal and tax reasons, AWS has set up a completely different entity for the country and to work with Indian customers, we ourselves had to setup a subsidiary in India. Our second highest traffic \u0026 signups always came from India since our launch in April, and given this strong pull we decided to go down this path even as a young company.\n\nWe are beyond PUMPED to go live in India and save Indian customers up to 60% on AWS costs!\n\n**Why this launch is important?**\n\nWhile adapting our product for India wasn’t that much work, we went through a grueling 4 months of copious paperwork, legalese and tests of patience.\n\nThere was just so much monumental effort that went in that we essentially had to package this as a launch :’)\n\n**How to get started?**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=75947\u0026key=user_uploads/1048566/7f11d87f-9555-44a2-bff9-a96ce9679e39)\n\n**🙏 Our ask:**\n\nIf you’re an Indian company (or otherwise too), sign up at [**app.pump.co**](https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidprosser/2023/10/05/how-pump-promises-to-slash-your-runaway-cloud-computing-costs/) and to see your estimated savings.\n\n[**https://youtu.be/5L5SEQaXlNw**](https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidprosser/2023/10/05/how-pump-promises-to-slash-your-runaway-cloud-computing-costs/)","slug":"Jkx-pump-india-save-60-on-aws-for-free-now-live-in-india","created_at":"2023-11-02T14:55:14.978Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T07:22:45.040Z","total_vote_count":6,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Jkx-pump-india-save-60-on-aws-for-free-now-live-in-india","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":27178,"name":"Pump.co","slug":"pump-co","url":"https://www.pump.co/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/2e52daa194550c954ede0338084d6994d0aeefde.png","batch":"Summer 2022","industry":"Fintech","tags":["Artificial Intelligence","FinOps","Fintech","SaaS","B2B"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/27178"}}
