Zylo

Zylo is a SaaS management platform for enterprise IT, procurement and FinOps teams that finds shadow IT and unused licenses from spend and login data.

Zylo keeps one record of every SaaS and AI application a company pays for, who uses each one and what it costs. Zylo, Inc. has built the platform in Indianapolis since the company's founding in 2016. The record answers a problem that grows with headcount: apps bought on cards and expense reports outside procurement, licenses that sit unopened, and several teams paying for tools that do the same job. Zylo reads both the spend and the sign-ins and joins them into one portfolio. Discovery starts from spend signals across accounts payable, expense systems, resellers and marketplaces, and from single sign-on data that shows which apps sit outside SSO. Direct Integrations connect to individual applications and capture user-level details such as user name and last login. Those details feed the utilization figure for each app. Reclamation workflows survey users on whether they still need a license, then raise follow-up tasks for IT to remove and reassign the seats. App Comparisons set similar applications side by side by user overlap, adoption and spend, and Cost Allocation splits spend across users, departments and business units. Zylo Clarity AI answers questions from real usage, spend and benchmark data and lays out plans that wait for a person's approval. The platform is built for enterprises where IT, software asset management, procurement and FinOps each own part of the software budget. A SAM lead uses it to keep the application inventory current, a procurement team to enter a renewal knowing how many seats are in use, and a FinOps analyst to charge costs back to departments. Companies with several business units are a fit, as are those folding another company's software into their own after an acquisition. Zylo also runs two managed services beside the platform, SaaS Operations and SaaS Negotiator. The jobs it is hired for are finding the shadow IT and AI tools that never passed through procurement, clearing unused licenses ahead of a renewal, and choosing which of two overlapping apps to keep. Identity data arrives from Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google SSO or Ping, and license follow-up work can be pushed into Jira through ITSM automations. Usage connections reach developer and AI services such as GitHub and Claude Enterprise, so AI consumption cost is watched next to SaaS spend. Zylo fits companies where procurement, IT and finance need to work from the same list of applications and the same usage numbers.
