Subscription spend audit tool for small companies
Growing companies need to see every software subscription and its total cost.
Why it can work
- Teams sign up for software independently, causing duplicate plans.
- Charges are scattered across cards and bank statements.
- Subscription costs can exceed revenue without anyone noticing.
Watch out
- Cancelling tools may break workflows teams depend on.
- Unrecognized charges may be hard to trace to a vendor.

The job to be done
Find and cut duplicate software subscriptions
When a growing company's teams sign up for software independently and charges pile up across cards and bank statements, the owner needs to see every subscription and its total cost, so they can cancel duplicates and stop paying more than revenue supports.

Company pays for multiple duplicate software subscriptions, such as five Notion plans, because teams sign up independently without checking existing tools.
Solo founder has no easy way to see the total of scattered tool subscriptions and realizes costs exceed revenue.
