Your Cloud Archive Is Bleeding Money

Every month you wait, egress fees compound. Storage costs climb.
The archive you're building today becomes the budget crisis of next year.

If you're ingesting at 50TB/month, your 2026 budget is already broken.

No deck. No pitch. Just your numbers and ours.

This is for you if:

  • Your cloud bill has already surprised you
  • You've felt the pain of egress fees blocking access to your own work
  • You generate 50+ TB per month of media
  • You need archive that's searchable, not just stored

This is NOT for you if:

  • You're under 20TB/month - we can't help you economically
  • You are optimizing for monthly cost, not lifetime savings
  • You want to manage storage yourself - we're done-for-you
  • You need a quick fix - lifecycle change takes ~90 days

We've Seen This Movie Before

We've managed media through every major technical transition - tape, files, cloud, streaming, and now AI-driven workflows. Along the way, we've watched organizations repeatedly struggle to balance archive integrity, operational efficiency, and long-term economics.

That experience led us to build an infinite-storage lifecycle: a system grounded in hard-won operational knowledge and modern automation, designed to keep your archive intact, accessible, secure, and affordable for the long haul.

Here's What's Actually Happening

49%

of a typical cloud bill goes to fees - not actual storage

62%

of organizations exceeded their cloud storage budget last year

56%

experienced IT or business delays due to cloud storage fees

The consequence nobody talks about:

Teams stop accessing archives because retrieval costs more than the project budget. Assets rot. Reuse dies. You're paying to store files you can't afford to touch.

Verdict

That's not storage. That's ransom.

Quick Diagnosis

Let's See Your Damage

Most teams don't realize their storage cost curve is exponential until it's too late. Plug in your numbers.

100 TB/month
Your Current Path $3.9M
With HausKloud $1.8M
You're leaving on the table: $2.1M 54% of your storage budget

At this trajectory, your archive becomes the most expensive line item in your operation - and the least accessible.

This gap widens every month you delay.

Once archives reach this scale, reversing course gets harder - and more expensive.

The Fix: Lifecycle Governance

Cloud punishes accumulation. Lifecycle rewards intention.

Field

Ingest with intent. Tag at capture.

Cloud

AI logging. Instant delivery. Short-term only.

NAS

24/7 access. No egress. Your working library.

LTO

30-year archive. Air-gapped. Immutable.

Every asset carries its context through the entire lifecycle. HausTracker is how you search, track, and manage your archive — from cloud to tape.

How findability works →

The difference: Cloud charges you more the longer you store. Lifecycle moves assets to cheaper tiers automatically. Your 5-year cost flattens instead of compounds.

We design this lifecycle, implement it with your team, and run it with you.

The first 30 days are about classification, not migration.

Why This Works

01

Costs Are Set at Ingest

What happens in the first 24 hours determines your 5-year cost. We enforce storage class, redundancy, and retention at the moment of capture.

Miss this moment, and you never get it back.

02

Cloud Bills Punish Indecision

Not choosing when to tier-down is a choice - and it's expensive. We automate tiering based on production calendars & access patterns, not guesswork.

Every month you wait, premium rates compound.

03

Search Breaks When Metadata Decays

An archive you can't search is just expensive storage. We refresh and normalize metadata as assets move through stages.

Lose findability, and your archive becomes a landfill.

04

Deletion Is a Business Capability

Knowing what can be safely deleted is as important as knowing what to keep. We enable defensible deletion - reducing both legal risk and storage spend.

Without it, you're paying forever for files you'll never use.

The Math at 100TB/Month

5-year total cost of ownership. Real numbers.

Hyperscale Cloud

$3.9M

Egress compounds. Budget unpredictable.

Zero Egress Cloud

$2.2M

"Zero egress" but storage still compounds.

HausKloud

$1.1M–$1.8M

Flat line. No curves. No surprises.

Save $2M+ vs hyperscale cloud

Pricing

Commit on your terms. The longer you stay, the more you save.

$30k/month replaces cloud storage, egress, backup, and archive ops.
If that feels expensive, your archive is probably too small for us to help.

Flex

Month-to-month. Leave anytime.

$30k/mo
  • Full lifecycle management
  • 24/7 human support
  • No commitment required

~$1.8M over 5 years

Why we'll only take 3 new clients this year

Every client gets a dedicated, human point of contact who knows your workflow, your team, and your archive.

Taking more than 3 new clients this year breaks that focus. We'd rather say no than deliver less.

We say no more often than yes.

2 of 3 slots currently open for 2026. Pricing structure resets Q2 2026.
