Introduction to SpendNexus

Welcome to the SpendNexus documentation. SpendNexus is a powerful SaaS spend management platform designed to help founders and finance teams take control of their subscription software. Modern teams use dozens (or hundreds) of SaaS tools. Without a central source of truth, costs spiral out of control, renewal dates are missed, and “zombie” subscriptions haunt your bank statements. SpendNexus solves this by providing:
  • Centralized Inventory: One place for every subscription, agreement, and invoice.
  • Automated Alerts: Never miss a renewal again with Email and Slack notifications.
  • Spend Intelligence: Multi-currency analytics that normalize your spend into a single base currency.
  • Ownership Accountability: Assign owners to every tool to ensure someone is always responsible for the ROI.

​
Core Concepts

To get the most out of SpendNexus, it’s helpful to understand a few key concepts:

​
The Subscription

The primary unit of data in SpendNexus. Each subscription tracks a vendor, its monthly/yearly cost, renewal dates, and its current status (Active, Archived, or Trial).

​
Monthly Normalization

SpendNexus automatically normalizes all costs—whether billed monthly, quarterly, or yearly—into a single Monthly Equivalent Cost. This allows for consistent comparisons across your entire stack.

​
Organizations

Everything in SpendNexus is scoped to an Organization. Each organization has its own base currency, timezone, and team members.
