# Insured Commitments

Archera offers a free FinOps Platform, however it is the category creator of **Insured Commitments**, which it offers through the platform as first-of-their-kind commitments with an insurance-backed guarantee.

These are technically referred to as **Guaranteed Cloud Commitments** (RIs, SPs, CUDs, PTUs etc.) with the word "Guaranteed" prefacing the underlying commitment type to reflect Archera's insurance-backed guarantee that is attached:

- **GRIs** — Guaranteed Reserved Instances
- **GSPs** — Guaranteed Savings Plans
- **GCUDs** — Guaranteed Committed Use Discounts
- **GPTUs** — Guaranteed Provisioned Throughput Units

You will hear Archera refer to these offerings as **Insured Commitments** (as they are the product that created the category) or **Guaranteed Commitments**, which are Archera's specific implementation.
