Case Study: Fey saves $72K a year with Render

How Fey saved $72k a year by migrating to OpenAI, Inngest, and Render

Fey, a financial research tool for individual investors, was struggling with an overprovisioned and hard-to-manage infrastructure stack on GCP, including GKE and Cloud Composer. The company wanted a simpler setup that would reduce costs and let its product-focused team spend less time on infrastructure and more time building features.

Render helped Fey migrate its backend from GKE to Render, move background jobs from Cloud Composer to Inngest, and replace a human-powered news vendor with OpenAI’s GPT-4. With Render, Fey right-sized its compute, simplified deployment and environment management, and cut annual infrastructure and operations costs by over $72,000, with about $60,000 of those savings coming from the Render and Inngest migrations alone.
