✦ The model
Why payback is so fast.
SaaS optimization ROI is unusually compelling because the savings come from eliminating waste that's already on your books — not from new capability you have to build. The money is being spent. It's just being spent inefficiently.
The typical company finds 20–30% of its SaaS budget going toward subscriptions that are underutilized, duplicated across teams, or completely unused. For a $10k/month stack, that's $24k–$36k of annual waste. Even after accounting for the cost of a platform like Efficyon, the net savings begin compounding from week one.
Three pillars make up most of the model: license optimization (15–25% of spend), duplicate elimination (5–10%), and time saved automating manual license-tracking work. The first two free up budget; the third frees up the IT/Finance hours currently lost to spreadsheet reconciliation.
