Simple formula. Real numbers.

01

Total your SaaS spend

Add every tool — the big ones and the ones you forgot you're paying for. Monthly × 12 = what you're actually spending per year.

02

Compare to a custom app

A custom app that replaces your stack typically costs $8K–$15K one-time. No per-seat pricing. No annual renewals. No features you don't use.

03

Find your escape velocity

Divide the build cost by your monthly savings. That's your payback period. After that, the savings are yours — every month, forever.

That's not a projection — that's what happens when you stop paying rent on software you should own.
