AI-Driven Spend Optimization
Zylo's algorithms automatically score licenses as underused, right-sized, or over-provisioned and recommend downgrades or consolidation candidates, surfacing savings without manual analysis.
Shadow IT Discovery
Zylo combines three discovery vectors — SSO/SAML login monitoring, browser extension activity, and API-based spend aggregation — to identify apps hidden from IT. This multi-layer approach catches both sanctioned cloud apps and unauthorized tools in a single pass.
Renewal Management Automation
The platform automatically tracks renewal dates with configurable pre-expiry alerts, captures contract terms (per-seat, tiered, usage-based), and surfaces benchmarking data on what peers pay, helping procurement renegotiate before auto-renewal triggers.
Deployment Speed
Browser extension rollout and SSO integration are pre-built, enabling shadow IT visibility within 2–3 weeks even before full AP/expense integration is complete.
Vendor Benchmarking Insights
Zylo's crowdsourced benchmarking database lets buyers see price ranges and negotiation outcomes for the same tools across comparable companies, reducing information asymmetry in renewals.
Usage Analytics & Visibility
Zylo delivers user-level login frequency, feature adoption scoring, and time-since-last-active metrics, enabling fine-grained license utilization decisions. This is richer than simple 'seats used vs. purchased' snapshots.
AI-Driven Spend Optimization
The platform uses pattern recognition to identify redundant or overlapping applications across departments and recommend consolidation; predictive analytics flag at-risk renewals and suggest optimal contract terms based on historical spend and usage trends.
Shadow IT Discovery
Spendbase combines SSO-based application discovery with optional browser-extension and API-driven detection, enabling identification of unauthorized tools before they become entrenched; the platform highlights risk scoring for unsanctioned apps based on security and compliance metadata.
Renewal Management Automation
The platform automates renewal calendar management with configurable alert windows, auto-renewal tracking, and integrated approval workflows that route to budget owners; negotiation benchmarking surfaces what peers pay for identical tools, empowering procurement teams to challenge vendor pricing before renewals.
Deployment Speed
Cloud-native architecture with pre-built connectors to major identity, ERP, and spend systems (Okta, Azure AD, Workday, ServiceNow) enables go-live in 4-8 weeks; SSO integration and financial data feeds are typically live within days, allowing immediate spend visibility.
Vendor Benchmarking Insights
Spendbase maintains a proprietary benchmarking database of SaaS pricing by tool, user tier, and contract term; comparison reports show what peer organizations pay for the same vendor, enabling data-driven renewal negotiations and justifying down-tier or consolidation decisions.
Usage Analytics & Visibility
Spendbase delivers login frequency, feature adoption, and last-active-date metrics per user per application, enabling license utilization scoring that surfaces underused, unused, and right-sized licenses; these insights feed directly into downgrade and reclamation recommendations.
Cross-Functional Workflow Integration
Integrated approval routing connects procurement, finance, IT, and business unit stakeholders; new SaaS request workflows enforce policy compliance and vendor risk assessment before purchases; renewal workflows automatically escalate to budget owners and CFO reports surface savings opportunities across the organization.
