What are we paying for that nobody uses, and what renews in the next thirty days?
Eleven of 42 tools have seats nobody has signed into in 60 days: 340 seats, about 4.2 lakh a year. Three renew inside 30 days and two of those renew automatically. Design and Marketing are paying for the same design suite separately, on different cards. I left the nine dormant seats on the security tool out of the count, because a break-glass account is supposed to look unused.

Two minutes, 21 credits. The last time anyone did this by hand it took a fortnight and was never repeated.
And then it keeps running
“Review last month's tool spend against sign-in activity. List dormant seats by owner, flag anything renewing within 30 days, name any tool two teams are paying for separately, and open a ticket for each owner. Do not cancel anything.”
