Contract Savings / Vendor Audit Firm

A contingency-fee service that reads all of a company's vendor contracts and invoices with AI, finds hidden savings (auto-renewals, unused seats, price escalators), and keeps 25% of what it recovers.

01 THE IDEA

Mid-size companies (50–500 employees) accumulate dozens of vendor contracts that nobody re-reads after signing. Auto-renewals trigger silently, unused software seats compound, and 8% annual price escalators go unchallenged. This service ingests all contracts and 12 months of invoices, cross-references them with Claude's document-reading capabilities, and surfaces every dollar leakage with a prioritized action list and pre-written negotiation emails.

The business model is pure performance-based: no upfront cost to the client, 25% of verified savings. The average mid-size company finds $50K–$500K in savings, making the service extremely easy to sell. Only possible now because Claude 5 can read tables, schedules, and footnotes buried in hundreds of PDFs without losing context.

03 THE VERDICT

This is the highest-conviction idea in the video. The performance-based pricing eliminates all sales friction, the TAM is enormous, and AI document reading gives a genuine capability advantage over manual auditors. A solo operator could realistically generate $300K–$800K in year one by landing 10–20 mid-market clients. The main risk is enterprise procurement cycles slowing deal velocity — solve this by targeting 50–200 person companies with a CFO directly.
