Shadow IT, surfaced.
The SaaS purchases that bypassed your procurement workflow live in one place: the accounting feed. Efficyon reads it, ties what it finds to identity data where it can, and tells you which seats are idle, which employees left months ago, and which tools never got a security review.
✦ The problem
Endpoint scans find the wrong half of the stack.
Modern SaaS runs in a browser, paid by a card, approved by no one in particular. The traditional ITAM playbook — agents on laptops, network monitoring, software inventory — is structurally blind to the half of the stack that matters most for cost and security.
A card, an email, and a new vendor.
A department lead signs up, expenses it, embeds it in a workflow over a quarter. By the time IT learns the tool exists, removing it is a political conversation, not a technical one. The discovery has to happen at the financial layer, not the network layer.
The offboarding script doesn't reach SaaS.
Your offboarding is solid for AD and the major suites. The 47 long-tail SaaS tools — many never inventoried — keep the seat live, sometimes for years. Each one is a paid license and a security exposure with the same root cause.
Three tiers up from what's needed.
An enterprise plan was justified by a feature nobody uses anymore, a seat count that hasn't been right since 2023, a renewal that auto-bumped. Without seat-level usage tied to identity, you can't tell which licenses are real and which are inertia.
Every untracked tool is a finding.
SOC 2, GDPR, sector frameworks — they all assume an inventory. Tools that bypassed procurement also bypassed the security review. The cost of finding them in an audit is much higher than the cost of finding them in a dashboard.
✦ What Efficyon does
Financial discovery. Identity-tied usage.
The two reads — what was paid for, and who actually used it — done continuously, with the gap between them as the signal.
Discovery from the ledger. Where it always shows up.
Read-only OAuth into the accounting feed. Every recurring vendor charge becomes an inventoried subscription. Shadow IT stops being a research project and becomes a column.
Usage tied to identity. Where the integration exposes it.
Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, HubSpot — seat-level usage attached to the actual user. Idle seats and active-but-departed accounts surface against your identity provider's offboarding state.
Departed-employee detection. The offboarding gap, closed.
Cross-reference active seats with identity status. The seats your offboarding script missed surface as a list, not as an audit finding. Each one is a paid license and a security exposure with one shared fix.
Tier and seat-count drift. Pricing reality vs. paid reality.
Where seat counts are visible, we compare them to active usage on a 90-day window. The enterprise tier you don't actually need, the seat count that hasn't moved with the team — both surface as findings with a recommended action.
✦ Why an IT lead specifically
Read-only, and built for procurement scrutiny.
No agents on endpoints, no writes to identity, no payment initiation. The scope is narrow on purpose — it's how a SaaS-discovery tool gets through your security review without becoming a project.
Access scope
OAuth or scoped API keys. No agents on endpoints. No writes to identity providers, accounting systems, or vendor portals. Identity data drives unused license detection across the platform.
Connect to first scan
No deployment. No agents to push. Connect via OAuth, the inventory builds in the background, the first scan completes the same morning.
Built in Gothenburg, Sweden
EU hosting and data residency by default. Useful when the security review starts with the geography of the processor. The software audit feature gives you the inventory that supports that review.
✦ Get started
Find what bypassed your procurement workflow.
Connect the accounting feed and a productivity suite. The shadow-IT inventory builds itself, the departed-employee seats surface, the idle licenses come with a recommended action. Read-only, EU-hosted, cancel anytime.
