The VC winter might be over. But the emphasis on reducing burn and remaining profitable continues to burn. SaaS is now the third-highest cost center, just below payroll and office expenses for most organizations. 

So, it makes sense to focus on optimizing the way you buy and manage SaaS. What doesn’t make sense is having that process become a cost center of its own. 

The problem today is fragmented SaaS management—multiple teams or lone warriors—all facing invisible losses.

Contracts sit in pricey CLM tools or gather dust across emails and drives. Usage data is scattered or nonexistent. There are people undergoing training to even begin using these CLM and data tools, or not paying heed to any of these things. 

The result:

  • Lost contract clarity—pricey clauses and renewal terms go unnoticed.
  • Unactionable usage data—overpaying for licenses that aren’t being put to use. 
  • Missed renewal leverage—approval and renewal delays cost negotiation power.

You’re hemorrhaging cash without even knowing it. You’re overpaying and maybe even footing the bill for negligent typos in contracts. How can you turn this around?

Enter the endless loop of savings—Know. Optimize. Streamline. 

Spendflo recognized this loop of invisible losses thanks to analyzing SaaS spends of over $2.2 Billion and got to work. Contract clarity, actionable usage data, and better renewal leverage—here comes the endless loop of pure savings, powered by AI.
