How much is your software and AI spend costing you beyond the invoice?

Enter three data points. We’ll estimate your likely waste, shadow AI exposure, duplicate tooling, and renewal risk — based on industry benchmarks.

Your profile

Full-time employees only

Rough estimate is fine — Brex, Ramp, or Expensify totals work. Include AI API bills if you have them.

Estimates are benchmarks, not guarantees. Actual recoverable spend varies by vendor mix, contract structure, and AI usage patterns.

How we estimate

Software waste

Based on industry averages for unused, duplicate, and overprovisioned SaaS licenses. We use conservative rates — 6–18% of annual spend depending on your sector. Agencies and marketplaces typically run higher; fintech and healthtech run lower due to tighter compliance oversight on tooling.

Shadow AI exposure

Individual AI subscriptions — Cursor, Copilot, Claude Pro, ChatGPT Plus — bought by employees outside central procurement. Estimated separately from your stated spend, based on typical per-seat costs and average adoption rates by industry. Not every employee uses these tools; the range reflects that spread.

Renewal risk

The value of contracts that are likely to auto-renew before anyone reviews them — no active owner assigned, notice window passed, or no renewal flagged in any system. Estimated as a percentage of annual spend based on industry averages for unmanaged contracts.

These are estimates based on industry benchmarks. Nagata’s actual analysis is based on your real spend data and will produce more accurate figures after a 30-minute onboarding.
