Founder and CEO Siddharth Sreedharan said the start-up is looking at a $23 billion market opportunity, with the oldest competitor – the US-based vendr – just 3.5 years in business.

Sreedharan also said that Spendflow will grow to manage SaaS’s $10 billion spend over the next three years, noting how rapidly the SaaS software market is growing globally and that each company needs a ballooning basket of SaaS tools each company has to pay for and operate.

“Instead of centralized procurement workflows, we now have each business function buying what they need. They overspend through unoptimized pricing plans, underutilized tiers and unused licences,” said Dinesh Katiyar, partner, Accel India.
