Across 713 workspaces audited this week, the median team is sitting on 27.5% ghost seats — about $6,743/year of reclaimable spend per company.
1Password led the waste board at 37.7% inactive seats, driven by trial creep and stalled cross-team pilots. Slack came in at 22.3%, Microsoft 365 at 18.7%, and Salesforce at 22.2%.
SeatMap.AI operators reclaimed a combined $51,182 in annualized spend the week of 2026-06-29 — most of it from routine contractor and role-change cleanup, not one-off big wins.
