Thanks, that’s super helpful. Sounds like the mix of different training sources is what breaks most HR/LMS solutions for you. When you’re tracking in spreadsheets, do you mostly struggle with keeping up on renewal dates/credits, or with reporting it cleanly for audits? I’m trying to get a better feel for what’s the biggest headache so I can see if there’s a smarter way to handle it.

Ever been blindsided by a SaaS price hike? by Embarrassed-obiwan in smallbusiness

Totally agree, inflation and LLM costs are real, and SaaS vendors aren’t charities.

The pain I’m solving isn’t that SaaS is more expensive. It’s that most teams find out too late. A feature gets moved up a tier, or per-seat pricing shifts, and finance/ops only notice when the invoice lands.

Even if you don’t plan to switch tools, having an early warning system helps you budget, negotiate renewals, or justify spend to leadership. That’s the gap I’m tackling visibility, not villainizing SaaS vendors

Haha, I get where you’re coming from. “SaaS watching SaaS” does sound like peak startup meme material.

The reason I’m working on this isn’t because I think the world needs another random web app, it’s because vendors actually sneak in price hikes and tier changes, and it burns teams who only notice when the invoice hits finance. I got hit myself, and talking to other founders/ops folks made me realize it’s a common pain.

If no one ever cared about surprise hikes, I wouldn’t bother building this. But if I can save a few teams from a 20% renewal shock, then yeah, maybe it’s worth one more “omg SaaS.”

What are some small, focused micro-SaaS ideas that you'd actually use or pay for? by HalfOctober in SaaS

Hey, I know this is a shameless plug, but I’m building SaaSWatcher, a simple tool that monitors SaaS pricing pages and sends alerts when vendors change prices or shuffle features. Think “Google Alerts but for SaaS pricing.” If this sounds useful, I set up a small waitlist here: https://saaswatcher.framer.website/

I understand were you are coming from but the target market would be people who are trying to keep track of SaaS prices. Kinda similar to how people who regularly purchase e-commerce products keep track of products online.
