AWS credits? You can get a bunch of free credits for each account, and then build an abstraction around boto3 to make 20 accounts look like 1 account to you.

meh, compute cost almost always costs less than dev time. I use multiple accounts for separation of duties, cost, access, and blast radius. Most services I run blow through the free tier in minutes.

I do have scripts that spin up accounts as needed and I just have a bucket for 'free Tier account access ending' emails.
