It happens to almost every startup:You sign up for that must-have platform, try the latest SaaS tool, or commit to a subscription that “everyone’s using.” Fast forward a few months—and your finance sheet looks more like a tech stack wishlist than a business plan.
Recent studies show that small businesses waste between 10% and 20% of their annual budgets on unused or unnecessary software subscriptions and services.

That number can be even higher, with founders juggling growth, product, and a pile of monthly expenses they barely remember signing up for.
