Across 459 workspaces audited this week, the median team is sitting on 27.8% ghost seats — about $5,623/year of reclaimable spend per company.

Airtable led the waste board at 43% inactive seats, driven by trial creep and stalled cross-team pilots. Slack came in at 27.8%, Microsoft 365 at 25.2%, and Salesforce at 14.6%.

SeatMap.AI operators reclaimed a combined $224,828 in annualized spend the week of 2026-03-30 — most of it from routine contractor and role-change cleanup, not one-off big wins.
