Across 390 workspaces audited this week, the median team is sitting on 30.2% ghost seats — about $4,505/year of reclaimable spend per company.
Miro led the waste board at 39.4% inactive seats, driven by trial creep and stalled cross-team pilots. Slack came in at 22.4%, Microsoft 365 at 18%, and Salesforce at 16.6%.
SeatMap.AI operators reclaimed a combined $229,734 in annualized spend the week of 2025-11-03 — most of it from routine contractor and role-change cleanup, not one-off big wins.
