Ask HN: Good or Bad Idea?

3 points by vladmk ↗ HN
We're thinking of creating a tool to help you save money on SaaS subscriptions. My cofounder and I personally have lost thousands to companies we didn't use. What do you think?

How would the tool save you money? Can you explain it?
It would automatically go through your companies Quickbooks and your password manager to see which ones your team logs into

Appreciate the question.

Sure it's a good idea. That's why this type of service already exists --

Those tools are for B2C, this idea is for B2b!

Which one have you used? PS Thanks for the feedback - TrueBill got acquired by rocket mortgage.

I'm pretty sure I have seen another B2B version launch on HN, though I cannot recall their name. I suspect the market would support multiple players.

If you can make actually cancelling these easy, you probably have a good idea.

product already exist: great, that means its probably a good idea and works. good luck!

product doesn't exist: great, you will be first, so no competition, good luck!

thank you, makes sense - I'd rather it exist actually than not exist, but in this case it's a feature
