Find the Seats You're Paying For — But Nobody's Using

Audit per-seat SaaS, see cost-per-active-seat, and let LemSubs flag any tool where less than half your paid seats are actually in use.

What goes wrong today

Quarterly Audits That Never HappenSeat audits are everyone's job and nobody's job
Renewal SurprisesAnnual renewal hits before utilisation is reviewed
Overlapping ToolsTwo SaaS doing the same job, both with full seat counts
Departmental Blind SpotsMarketing, eng and ops each buy the same tool because nobody owns the seat audit
Forgotten Lifetime / LTD LicencesOne-time deals stay in the stack with zero usage, no renewal pressure to clean them up

How LemSubs handles it

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the Teams plan to track seats?

No — seat data is available on Pro. Teams adds shared workspaces if multiple admins manage the audit.

How does the Zombie Seats rule decide?

Any per-seat subscription with under 50% active-seat utilisation is flagged with the seats you should drop.

How often should I update active counts?

Quarterly works for most teams. LemSubs prompts you when a seat figure goes stale.

Can finance get the data without logging in?

Yes — CSV export delivers a clean per-tool seat & cost report finance can drop straight into a board pack.

LemSubs — Subscription Tracker Without Bank Login

LemSubs is a privacy-first subscription tracker. Track every recurring charge, lifetime deal, and renewal in one place — no bank connection, no Plaid, no credentials. Free for individuals.

Built by Deepak Shukla after losing $47,000+ to forgotten renewals and zombie subscriptions across six businesses. Used by founders, freelancers, and small teams who want to know what they're actually paying for without handing a third party read access to their bank accounts.

What LemSubs does

Why no bank connection

Every other tracker on the market — Rocket Money, Mint, Bobby, Trim — asks for your bank credentials through Plaid. LemSubs does not. You add subscriptions manually, forward a receipt, or import a CSV. Your bank stays your bank.
