Tech Debt? Identify. Understand. Eliminate.
Identify
Draftt gives you a continuously updated, searchable inventory of everything in your stack and flags what needs attention before it becomes a problem.- Infrastructure Services: Know the version, configuration, and health of every managed service, VM, container, cluster, and serverless function across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Not just what exists, but what’s drifting.
- Application Dependencies: See every runtime, framework, and library across your environments with end-of-life dates, version gaps, and patch status so nothing ages out of support undetected.
- Configuration: Catch policy violations and configuration drift the moment they appear, not during your next audit.
- Cost: Identify unoptimized resources, unused services, and untracked commitments before they compound into budget problems.
- Compliance: Track deviations from regulatory and internal policy standards continuously, not as a point-in-time snapshot.
Understand
Not all tech debt is equally urgent. Draftt calculates the business and engineering impact of every finding so your teams focus on what actually matters.- Business impact: Is this an SLA risk? Does it affect customers or just internal systems? Can it wait, or does it need immediate action?
- Risk category: Lifecycle, Configuration, Ownership, Cost, or Compliance. Each has a different remediation path and stakeholder.
- Remediation effort: How much work is required? Are there prerequisites? Is this a contained fix or does it require cross-team coordination?
- Blast radius: What depends on this resource? How many systems, teams, or customers are exposed if it fails or goes unpatched?
Eliminate
Draftt integrates with the tools your teams already use to turn findings into resolved work, not dashboard statistics.- Ticketing: Route findings to Jira, ServiceNow, or Azure DevOps with full remediation context so engineers have what they need without leaving their queue.
- Policy enforcement: Governance policies evaluate every resource on every scan cycle. Violations surface immediately with a recommended path to resolution.
- Upgrade plans: Step-by-step guidance scoped to your specific resource and stack, not a generic runbook.
The Five Faces of Tech Debt
Every piece of tech debt falls into one of five categories. Understanding these helps you prioritize and remediate systematically.Lifecycle Tech Debt
Outdated software versions no longer receiving security patches or support
Configuration Tech Debt
Infrastructure and policy misconfiguration that violates best practices
Ownership Tech Debt
Resources with unclear or missing ownership, creating maintenance gaps
Cost Tech Debt
Unoptimized resources, unused services, and untracked financial commitments
Compliance Tech Debt
Deviations from regulatory, organizational, or industry-standard policies
Who Uses Draftt
VP Engineering & Technology Leadership
Right now, answering “what is our riskiest tech debt?” requires pulling data from five different tools and a spreadsheet. Draftt gives engineering leadership a single view of debt trends across the organization: remediation velocity, risk by team, EOL exposure. Resource allocation decisions based on evidence, not gut feel.Platform & SRE Teams
Platform teams own the standards but don’t always own the enforcement. Draftt closes that gap: define your governance policies once, and Draftt evaluates every resource against them on every scan. SREs use it to catch operational risks before they page someone at 2am.FinOps & Cost Management
Cloud waste is invisible until it shows up on the bill. Draftt surfaces unused resources, overprovisioned instances, and untracked commitments continuously, with ownership data so the right team is accountable for the optimization conversation.Individual Engineering Teams
Engineers use Draftt to understand the actual state of their dependencies, find outdated versions before they cause incidents, and see exactly what they own and what needs attention. No waiting for a quarterly review to find out.Next Steps
