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
Spendscape leverages McKinsey's operational AI methodology and benchmarking database to recommend right-sizing actions, vendor consolidation targets, and license optimization moves; AI-powered insights rank opportunities by impact and confidence level, guiding procurement and IT teams toward highest-ROI decisions.
Shadow IT Discovery
Native discovery via SSO provider logs, browser extension signals, and API-based endpoint detection automatically identifies unapproved and unmanaged SaaS applications, with risk scoring that flags unauthorized tools and compliance violations in near-real-time.
Renewal Management Automation
Automated renewal calendar, configurable expiry alerts, contract term and pricing capture for per-seat and usage-based models, and AI-suggested negotiation benchmarks based on McKinsey's proprietary vendor-pricing database streamline the renewal cycle and reduce missed opportunities.
Deployment Speed
Initial discovery and inventory go live in 2–4 weeks via SSO connectors and browser extension; core SaaS spend dashboard is operational within 6 weeks, enabling rapid ROI before deeper integrations and workflow customization are completed.
Vendor Benchmarking Insights
McKinsey's proprietary benchmarking database provides insight into what peers pay for the same tool, industry spend patterns, and vendor price trends; this informs renewal negotiations and helps justify vendor consolidation decisions with data-backed competitive intelligence.
Usage Analytics & Visibility
Real-time login frequency, feature-adoption scoring, and last-active-date tracking per user provide detailed utilization metrics; license utilization scoring (underused, unused, right-sized) combined with cost-per-employee analytics surfaces optimization candidates immediately.
Cross-Functional Workflow Integration
Native approval routing to budget owners, finance controllers, and CIOs with role-based permissions and audit trails integrates SaaS request intake into existing procurement and financial-governance workflows, reducing time-to-approve and ensuring compliance at each step.
Customer Base
Procurement and IT teams managing growing SaaS estates in mid-market and enterprise organizations.
