Not inline, but https://instances.vantage.sh/ is the way I've been looking at it for 5+ years.

In case anybody is curious, this is done with the AWS Pricing API:

The pricing api is so weird. It basically downloads a CSV file and serves that up through code. Also none of the names in there match anything else in the AWS nomenclature. It talks about SKUs and in general feels like somebody leaked an internal API by accident.

The official docs literally tell you to manually search the file in a text editor.

Works for EC2 but not RDS.
