AI-Driven Spend Optimization
CleanShelf uses ML-powered usage patterns and benchmarking data to flag underutilized licenses and recommend downgrades or tier changes; this reduces manual review overhead and surfaces savings opportunities proactively.
Shadow IT Discovery
CleanShelf combines browser-extension-based traffic interception with SSO log parsing and vendor API enrichment to surface both sanctioned and shadow SaaS usage with high fidelity. Unlike pure API-based discovery, the extension captures usage even when apps fall outside federated identity.
Renewal Management Automation
Automated renewal alerts linked to contract terms, combined with intelligent vendor consolidation and benchmark-driven negotiation recommendations, help teams prioritize renewals and avoid auto-renewals at stale pricing.
Deployment Speed
Browser extension and SSO connector deployment are lightweight and fast (days, not months); initial SaaS visibility and cost reporting are available within 1–2 weeks, allowing quick ROI realization.
Usage Analytics & Visibility
The platform provides login frequency, feature adoption heatmaps, and inactive-user scoring per application, enabling precise license utilization calculations and right-sizing recommendations that go beyond simple seat-count audits.
AI-Driven Spend Optimization
Lasso uses machine-learning algorithms to flag underutilized licenses and recommend downgrades or consolidation opportunities; the system learns from peer benchmarks to suggest tool substitutions within the same category.
Shadow IT Discovery
Beyond SSO logs, Lasso integrates browser extension technology and API-based detection to uncover unapproved SaaS apps; it risk-scores them and integrates findings into approval workflows to prevent new shadow IT.
Renewal Management Automation
The platform automatically flags upcoming renewals with configurable alert windows, captures contract terms and pricing structures, and benchmarks vendor rates against peer data to arm negotiators with market intelligence before renewal discussions.
Deployment Speed
With data ingestion and initial discovery complete in 2–4 weeks, Lasso delivers faster time-to-insight than traditional spend-analysis tools, allowing organizations to act on cost-reduction opportunities within the first month.
Vendor Benchmarking Insights
Lasso maintains a database of 3,000+ SaaS applications with pre-built pricing and usage benchmarks across peer cohorts; renewal negotiations are backed by real market data on what comparable organizations pay for identical tools.
Usage Analytics & Visibility
Real-time tracking of login frequency, feature adoption, and last-active dates per user per application; the platform surfaces inactive-user seats and underutilized licenses for immediate reclamation or downgrades.
Cross-Functional Workflow Integration
Department budget-owner approval routing, SaaS request intake workflows, and cost center ownership mapping enable Procurement, Finance, and Department Heads to collaborate within a single platform without leaving their domain systems.
Customer Base
Procurement and IT teams managing growing SaaS estates in mid-market and enterprise organizations.
