Sahay: Know what each decision costs to run.Running time 2:10

Sahay is the spend-less half of the engineering portfolio. Where Nirmiti helps a team build a system quickly and consistently, Sahay works on what that system costs to run: connecting code architecture to cloud infrastructure cost, surfacing third-party SaaS and API dependency spend, quantifying the maintenance cost of legacy monoliths, and finding duplicated implementations worth consolidating. It makes total cost of ownership a number an engineering team can act on.

The problem

Cloud, SaaS, and maintenance spend is reported by vendor and account, never by the architectural decision that caused it, so cost conversations never reach the code.

The outcome

Total cost of ownership attributed back to architecture, dependencies, and technical debt, where it can actually be changed.

How it works

How Sahay works

  1. 01

    Connect the spend

    Cloud, SaaS, and tooling cost is pulled in alongside the repositories and services that generate it.

  2. 02

    Attribute it

    Spend is mapped to services, dependencies, and architectural decisions rather than to billing accounts.

  3. 03

    Find the waste

    Duplication, unused dependencies, and disproportionate maintenance cost are surfaced with evidence.

  4. 04

    Model the change

    Modernization and consolidation options are projected against the cost they would remove.

Architecture-to-Cost Mapping

Cloud infrastructure spend traced back to the services and decisions that drive it.

  • 02

    Dependency Spend

    Third-party SaaS and API dependency cost surfaced against actual usage.

  • 03

    Technical Debt Economics

    Legacy monolith maintenance cost quantified so modernization is argued on numbers.

  • 04

    Duplication Detection

    Repeated implementations found and consolidated into shared, maintained utilities.

Capabilities

Sahay composes these capabilities from the shared Agent Platform layer. The same atoms power the rest of the portfolio, so adopting a second accelerator reuses the integration work rather than repeating it.

Ingest

System Connectors
MCP-connected reads and writes against the ERP, MES, PLM, CRM, and warehouse systems already in place.

Reason

Anomaly Detection
Deviation found in high-volume signal without a human defining the threshold first.

Reason

Root-Cause Reasoning
Symptoms traced back through system, process, and genealogy relationships to the change that caused them.

Reason

Forecasting
Demand, degradation, and risk projected forward far enough that the response is a plan rather than a reaction.

Act

Workflow Orchestration
Specialist agents coordinated across a multi-step process, each handing structured context to the next.

FAQ

How is this different from a cloud cost tool?

Cost tools report by account and resource. Sahay attributes spend to the architecture and dependency decisions behind it, which is where an engineering team can act.

Does it need access to our source code?

It needs repository metadata and dependency manifests. The depth of code access is scoped with you, and it can run inside your boundary.

How does it pair with Nirmiti?

Nirmiti sets the foundation new services are built on; Sahay measures what the estate costs and feeds that back into the templates.
