# Anavsan

> Anavsan is the Snowflake Workload Governance Platform. Powered by APEX, it traces every credit to its workload and owner, assigns the fix, proves the savings, and enforces closure. Native Snowflake attribution stops at the warehouse; Anavsan closes the loop. Customers report 35-40% spending reductions.

## Platform

- [Homepage](https://www.anavsan.com): Dashboards detect spend. Snowflake shows the warehouse. Anavsan enforces the fix. Operating loop: Trace → Assign → Prove → Enforce.
- [APEX](https://www.anavsan.com/apex): Accountability and Performance Enforcement Engine. Ingests 200+ Snowflake signals, builds a Private Knowledge Graph, and runs the full loop. Includes Enforcement Desk (waste-ranked worklist with owner, exact fix, and evidenced closure) and Ask APEX (grounded chat over costs, ownership, and Desk findings).
- [How Anavsan Works](https://www.anavsan.com/how-anavsan-works): End-to-end model from detection to verified savings — ownership, simulation, and enforcement.
- [Snowflake Cost Optimization Platform](https://www.anavsan.com/snowflake-cost-optimization-and-credit-management-solution): Query compute optimization, storage and configuration control, and governance/accountability workflows.
- [Snowflake Storage Intelligence](https://www.anavsan.com/snowflake-storage-intelligence): Multi-account storage monitoring. Growth trends, tables inactive 30+ days, orphaned data, and reduction recommendations.
- [Snowflake AI & Cortex Visibility](https://www.anavsan.com/snowflake-ai-cortex-visibility): Cost visibility for Snowflake Cortex AI workloads — token consumption, query cost impact, and usage anomalies.
- [Native App on Snowflake Marketplace](https://www.anavsan.com/native-app-in-snowflake-marketplace): Credit monitoring that runs inside Snowflake. Metadata only; no business data leaves the account.

## Pricing

- [Pricing](https://www.anavsan.com/pricing): Three tiers. **Monitoring** is forever free for 1 Snowflake account. **Accountability** is $1,750 per account / month ($16,800 / yr per account with annual billing, 20% savings) — ownership routing, simulation, Private Knowledge Graph, and Ask APEX. **Enforcement** is 3–5% of governed Snowflake spend — Enforcement Desk, policy, GitHub PR workflows, and verified closure. 14-day free trial on paid plans; no credit card for Monitoring or trial.
