What is PinPole?
Design with confidence. Simulate at scale. Deploy with control.
Version 1.0 — March 2026
PinPole is a browser-based cloud infrastructure design platform that lets you build, simulate, optimise, and deploy AWS architectures — before a single dollar is spent on provisioned resources.
The standard industry workflow requires deployed infrastructure before any real performance or cost data is available. This means every significant architectural decision involves committing real spend before validation. A misconfigured concurrency limit or a missing caching layer can mean a surprise AWS bill, a production incident, or both. PinPole compresses what is normally a multi-tool, post-deployment workflow — cost estimation, load testing, architecture review — into a single design-time session.
What PinPole enables
- Design AWS cloud architectures on a visual drag-and-drop canvas with 315+ services
- Run pre-deployment traffic simulations from 10 RPS to 100M RPS across four configurable traffic patterns
- Receive AI-powered cost optimisation and architectural recommendations, categorised by severity
- See a live monthly cost estimate update in real time as you change the architecture and load
- Deploy directly to AWS via a secure STS cross-account IAM workflow
- Export infrastructure-as-code (Terraform / CDK) from any canvas state
- Review full execution history with architecture snapshots, version comparison, and rollback
No AWS account is required to design, simulate, and optimise. An AWS account is only needed when you use the Deploy to Cloud feature.
Every dollar saved in PinPole is a dollar never misspent in AWS. Move validation left — catch misconfigurations, bottlenecks, and cost inefficiencies at design time, not after a production incident.
