Across 582 workspaces audited this week, the median team is sitting on 28.9% ghost seats — about $7,376/year of reclaimable spend per company.

Notion led the waste board at 41.9% inactive seats, driven by trial creep and stalled cross-team pilots. Slack came in at 28.4%, Microsoft 365 at 18.4%, and Salesforce at 16.4%.

SeatMap.AI operators reclaimed a combined $258,202 in annualized spend the week of 2025-07-21 — most of it from routine contractor and role-change cleanup, not one-off big wins.
