Everything Renlyst does, and how it fits together
Renlyst is a workspace for growing teams that run dozens of SaaS and AI subscriptions. It is built around three steps: see what you spend, stay ahead of renewals, and track the savings you actually achieve. Data comes from you — entered by hand or imported from a CSV.
In development. Renlyst has not launched yet. This page describes how the first release is designed to work; details may change before launch.
Three pillars, one workflow
Each pillar answers a question finance and operations leads ask every month.
-
1 · Spend Visibility
What are we paying for?
One inventory of subscriptions with owners, statuses and costs, normalized to a comparable monthly figure and an annualized run-rate across currencies — with AI tools shown as their own share.
-
2 · Renewal Control
What renews next, and when must we decide?
Renewal dates plus the earlier cancellation deadlines that follow from notice periods, reminders to the responsible person, and a record of each decision and its confirmed outcome.
-
3 · Savings Tracking
Where can we save, and what did we save?
Rule-based opportunities such as excess seats or a costly renewal coming up, kept strictly apart from realized savings that you confirm with evidence.

How the pieces fit
If you already have a list of your subscriptions, the aim is a first useful picture of costs and renewals in a single sitting.
Add or import subscriptions
Create records by hand or import a CSV with a preview, duplicate check and error report.
See normalized costs
Monthly, quarterly, yearly and per-seat prices become one estimated monthly figure, with clear labels when data is incomplete.
Review upcoming deadlines
The nearest cancellation deadlines come first, and reminders go to each subscription’s owner, or to the workspace Owner when none is assigned.
Act and record the outcome
Review savings opportunities, make the change with the vendor yourself, and record the confirmed result with evidence.
Built to be trusted by finance
Honest labels
Estimated, normalized and confirmed figures are labeled differently in the app and in exports. A partial total says it is partial.
Clear ownership
Every subscription can have a responsible owner, and a missing owner is flagged rather than hidden.
Roles for the team
Four roles — Owner, Admin, Member and Viewer — so a reviewer can see everything without being able to change it.
History is kept
Archiving hides a record without deleting it. Price changes, decisions and confirmed savings keep a dated audit trail.
Every feature on every plan
Plans differ by how many active subscriptions you track and how many members you invite — not by which features you get.
A 14-day trial of the Business plan, without a credit card, is planned for when the app launches. Until then, join the early access list to hear when it opens.
| Plan | Active subscriptions | Members |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | 25 | 2 |
| Business | 100 | 10 |
| Growth | 300 | 25 |
What Renlyst does not do (yet)
We would rather you know the limits now than discover them after launch.
- No bank, card or accounting sync. Renlyst does not read transactions or invoices; you enter subscriptions or import a CSV.
- No automatic SaaS discovery or integrations. No Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, single sign-on, accounting or Slack connections at launch.
- No usage telemetry. Renlyst does not measure logins, seats in use or AI tokens; seat needs and usage costs are your estimates.
- No actions at vendors. Renlyst never cancels, downgrades or negotiates for you — it reminds you and records what you did.
- No actual or committed spend. Figures are normalized run-rates from recorded subscriptions, not payments made or contractual obligations.
- Email and in-app only. No mobile app, SMS or chat notifications, and no public API.
