SaaS Subscription Waste
Businesses lose money on forgotten, duplicate, and unused SaaS subscriptions that auto-renew without central tracking or usage visibility.
In their words
I was profitable on paper because I had built a spreadsheet that felt like accounting but wasn't
My CEO just asked me if we can replace it with our own app.
I will pay if the thing saves actual labor or protects revenue.
I knew what clients paid me, but not what each client was actually costing me once subscriptions started adding up.
We've already replaced a dozen that we have to pay for the whole app, but really only use 10% of it
Now my worry is who can I call to fix the issues when there's an issue or something. Im not a developer im fairly new
we have 6 software licenses that all do the same task
Autodesk and Adobe have charged me thousands a month for what is a unchanged version of the same software for years
once I added everything up it was enough money to make me wonder if this was the only case
i'm paying something like 40% more than eighteen months ago for work that is, at best, identical
I genuinely can't tell anymore what SaaS spend is necessary vs. what we could just build with Claude
Every one of those apps is an unmonitored door into our data but when I bring up consolidation, every team acts like I'm mugging them.
The ones we lost seem to have just built our solution in-house, presumably with AI helping.
spent over $10k + at least a month of developer salary building an OKR app for the company, so probably in total $25k

Tools they use today
- Claude
- Ramp
- HubSpot
- Salesforce
- Airtable
- Excel
- Google Sheets
- Google Workspace
Why those fall short
- no deferred revenue tracking; revenue recognition wrong for 14 months
- unchanged software for years yet still charged thousands monthly per user
- charges look small and tools have different names, so overlaps stay invisible
- charges look small and have different vendor names
- free viewer covers the immediate need, paid storage not needed again
