About Rochwall
Independent technology advisory. We deliver verdicts on cloud platforms and AI — so you know what's actually worth doing before you commit budget.
The short version
Rochwall exists because most technology decisions are influenced by people who benefit from a particular outcome. Cloud providers optimise inside their platform, never outside it. AI vendors want you to buy their stack. Systems integrators bill by the quarter.
We have no vendor partnerships, no reseller commissions, and no incentive except giving you the right answer. We assess your situation, deliver a clear verdict, and if you want help acting on it, we do that too.
Two things we do: tell you whether your cloud platform is the right fit for your workload, and tell you where AI will actually deliver value in your business. Both delivered in days, not months.
Why independent matters
We don't earn money from your spending. Every cloud reseller and MSP earns a percentage of your bill. Every AI vendor wants you on their platform. Their incentives point in one direction. Ours point toward the right answer.
We'll tell you not to do something. Roughly a third of our assessments conclude that the current setup is the right one, or that AI isn't worth the investment yet. We get paid for the verdict, not the outcome — so we have no reason to push you toward change that doesn't make sense.
Full methodology, no black boxes. Every recommendation comes with the data and reasoning behind it. You can verify the numbers, challenge the assumptions, and make your own decision. If you want help executing, we're here. If you want to take it in-house, the report is built for that too.
Why now
Two shifts are happening at once. Cloud bills are growing faster than revenue for most companies — IDC and Gartner estimate 20-30% of all cloud spend is pure waste. Meanwhile, every vendor is pushing AI products without honest answers about where they'll actually deliver ROI.
Companies like 37signals, Dropbox, and Ahrefs have already proven that leaving a hyperscaler can cut costs dramatically. But not every company should leave. And not every AI use case is worth pursuing. The hard part isn't the technology — it's knowing what's worth doing.
That's what Rochwall provides. A clear, independent verdict — then help executing if you want it.
Founding client offer
Rochwall is a new consultancy. We're building our track record and looking for our first cohort of clients. In exchange for being early, founding clients receive priority pricing and the option to be referenced as a case study (with your permission, of course).
If your cloud bill feels too high or you're under pressure to adopt AI, this is a good time to get an honest answer.
