Enter your annual software and cloud spend. See your gross savings, our 25% gainshare fee, and your net savings — and compare gainshare against fixed-fee and hourly advisory models. The math explains why zero-risk negotiation wins every time.
Traditional advisory firms charge retainers whether they save you money or not. Hourly consultants bill regardless of outcome. The gainshare model is different: our fee is 25% of independently verified savings. If we save you $2M, we earn $500K and you keep $1.5M. If we save you nothing, you pay nothing. This isn't a marketing promise — it's written into the engagement letter.
25% of independently verified savings. Not of spend, not of estimated savings — of actual verified savings.
You retain 75 cents of every dollar saved. The savings also compound: lower contract values mean lower renewals, lower true-ups, and lower future price increases.
Zero fee. No retainer, no hourly rate, no project fee. If we don't improve your commercial position, you pay nothing. That's the contractual guarantee.
No obligation. We'll analyse your contracts and estimate savings in 48 hours.
Traditional software advisory charges you regardless of outcome. Here's what $5M in annual software spend looks like under each model — assuming 30% savings are achieved.
| Factor | Fixed-Fee Retainer | Hourly Consulting | NoSaveNoPay Gainshare |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | $100K–$500K retainer | $250–$600/hour | $0 |
| Fee if savings = $0 | Full retainer still owed | Full hours still billed | $0 — contractual guarantee |
| Advisor incentive | Complete the project | Bill more hours | Maximise your savings |
| Fee on $1.5M savings | $200K (13%) + retainer | $300K–$500K estimated | $375K (25%) — nothing more |
| Your net savings | $800K–$1.1M after fees | $1M–$1.2M (variable) | $1,125,000 — guaranteed minimum |
| Independent from vendors | Usually, but verify | Sometimes resellers | 100% — no vendor relationships |
| Multi-vendor coverage | Often single-vendor specialists | Varies by consultant | All 14 vendors in one engagement |
| Savings verification | Self-reported | Self-reported | Independent verification before fee |
