The story

Sastrify launched in 2020 as a SaaS procurement platform helping companies buy and manage third-party software subscriptions. It quickly became cash-flow positive by focusing on cost savings and benchmarking for digital-first companies. By 2022 it had embedded a financing layer via a Capchase partnership, adding a 'Save Now, Pay Later' program so customers could defer SaaS license costs. By 2024, the product evolved into an AI co-pilot for software management, adding automated discovery via IdP, browser, and ERP integrations, positioning it as the operating system for enterprise SaaS spend.
