Find the tools you pay for twice

You can name every tool you pay for, who owns it, which client it serves and which overlap to cancel.

1. Step 01

   Open the ledger

   Every tool with its owner, monthly cost, seats and renewal date in one table. The free Stack audit gives you the totals from numbers you paste; the ledger keeps every tool behind them.

   

2. Step 02

   Split the cost by client

   Set how much of each tool serves each client, and Cost by client shows what every client costs in tools each month, active tools only.

   

3. Step 03

   Read the renewals

   Renewals are grouped by the next 7, 30 and 90 days, and owners get a digest every Monday, so nothing renews as a surprise.

   

4. Step 04

   Cancel with the numbers in hand

   Group the ledger by category to see where two tools do the same job, and flags any product entered twice. Switch one off for a month before you cancel it, and the monthly total updates when you do.
