What your tool stack really costs.

You know your subscriptions: they leave your account every month, line by line. The time spent holding those tools together appears on no statement, and it usually costs more. This page counts both, from your own figures and your own hours.

What you pay every month

Uncheck what you do not have, correct the amounts. The suggested figures are market ballparks, not your invoice.

A share of your sales, not a subscription. Your monthly total if you know it.

Whatever this list did not think of. You are the only one who knows your stack.

What it costs you in time

The same contact entered by hand in three places. The automation that broke on a Sunday night. That part shows up on no invoice, so nobody counts it.

Holding your tools together, not doing the work itself.

Your own estimate. You set it, not us.

What that adds up to over a year

24 days of work a year spent moving information from one tool to the next.

Based on 47 working weeks rather than 52, because your time off does not count, and a 8-hour day. Monthly figures are the yearly ones divided by twelve, rounded to the nearest unit.

The expensive part is on none of your invoices.

A subscription is visible every month, and you can cancel it in three clicks. Those hours cannot be cancelled. They come back every week, in the same place, for the same reason: your tools do not talk to each other.
