https://instances.vantage.sh/ recently added alerts for any pricing changes on EC2, including newly launching new instances. The site rebuilds every 4 hours so it usually breaks the pricing news first. I have it on for myself and its super helpful just to see when AWS changes things.

FYI, it's been almost two years since us-east-1-chi-2 launched and it's still missing on the site. Any reason for this? Kind of feels like local zones are a 2nd class citizen even at AWS itself.
Thank you for maintaining this, I do use it every few months at $DAYJOB and it's quite useful for my capacity/deployment planning.
Hey, big fan of the vantage instance finder. Would it be possible to add instance type labels similar to what AWS calls them on their website - "storage-optimized", "general-purpose" etc.?
I find this often useful to quickly compare similar instance types, e.g.: m7g vs. m8g vs. m9g.

Or is your value proposition for companies that use a bunch of different cloud providers ?
