MacroSpend vs SOURCINGSHARK

MacroSpend helps finance, IT, and advisory teams find software waste, renewal risks, duplicate vendors, and potential savings. It takes in accounts payable, expense, license, and contract data through CSV uploads or manual entry. Its AI agents flag duplicate apps, idle licenses, renewal risk, and AI tool sprawl, with confidence scores, supporting evidence, and estimated annual savings. Suggested actions include canceling, consolidating, downgrading, or renegotiating software; approved recommendations can be routed to an owner. A risk-scored renewal calendar provides alerts 90 days ahead. MacroSpend connects with accounting, identity, and billing systems. Growth offers up to five no-code integrations, while Pro lists all integrations; full usage intelligence is listed on Growth and Pro. Reports include executive briefs and board-ready PDFs, and the homepage describes white-labeled PDF and PPTX reports for advisors. The maker says data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with tenant isolation and daily backups. Its SOC 2 Type I program is in progress. Free costs nothing, with two CSV uploads per month and three team members. Paid plans start at $39 a month, billed annually.
