📅 July 14, 2025 — ContractClock: Automatically Surface Expiring SaaS Contracts Before Auto-Renewal Traps Trigger
🎯 1. Who's Bleeding & Why
- ICP: Finance managers and procurement leads at B2B companies with 20–200 employees, spending $50K–$500K/year on SaaS tools, who own vendor renewals without dedicated IT or legal support
- The Pain: Every quarter, a SaaS vendor auto-renews a $8K–$80K annual contract because the 30/60/90-day cancellation window was buried in a PDF attachment from 18 months ago. The finance manager finds out on the credit card statement. Disputes go nowhere — the contract was valid.
- The Cost of Inaction: Industry estimates put unwanted SaaS auto-renewals at 15–30% of total SaaS spend. For a $200K/year SaaS portfolio, that's $30K–$60K in locked-in waste per year, plus hours of failed vendor negotiation after the fact.
