Across 660 workspaces audited this week, the median team is sitting on 31.8% ghost seats — about $4,178/year of reclaimable spend per company.
Asana led the waste board at 39.1% inactive seats, driven by trial creep and stalled cross-team pilots. Slack came in at 26.3%, Microsoft 365 at 28.1%, and Salesforce at 15.7%.
SeatMap.AI operators reclaimed a combined $149,698 in annualized spend the week of 2026-02-02 — most of it from routine contractor and role-change cleanup, not one-off big wins.
