€2,001,000Annual savingBy right-sizing 379 over-licensed users to the correct type — a recurring, yearly gain.
€700,800Annual audit exposure292 under-licensed users; the amount SAP could bill retroactively in a measurement.

All currencies supported (EUR/USD/GBP/CHF/TRY). Figures are illustrative; in your environment the ratio is similar and the amount scales with your size.

How it works

A defensible position in three steps

1

Give the data

SAP exports (or a direct RFC connection). A single file is enough; setup takes minutes.

2

Analysis runs

Every user is classified by real usage; risk, audit and savings are computed — all on-premises.

3

Take action

Priority tasks are assigned to the team; the executive summary and reports are one click away.

SAP License Intelligence Platform

Not just analysis — a platform

Risk Score

A 0–100 composite risk per user: cost, audit, security, dormancy, FUE. Priority users float to the top.

AI Copilot

"Why this recommendation?" — a traceable evidence panel and free-text Q&A. Individual data never goes to the cloud.

Audit Center

Are you ready for an SAP measurement (USMM/LAW)? Readiness score, factor breakdown and potential invoice.

CFO View

The money story with no SAP jargon: what you pay today, what you could save, what is at risk in an audit.

Benchmark

Compare your license mix to an industry profile — your data is never uploaded, the comparison runs on your server.

Contract Intelligence

Extracts terms from your contract text with AI — on-premises, for review.

How we're different

Why we're different

Most SAP license / SAM tools are a counter running in the cloud. Ctrl-Cost runs on-premises, explains with AI, and turns findings into action.

Local LLM

The AI runs entirely on your server; individual data never goes to the cloud. Most rivals use cloud AI.

AI Copilot

A "why?" evidence panel and free-text Q&A on every recommendation — an assistant you can talk to, not just a report.

Audit Readiness

"Are you ready for a measurement?" in one score. Classic tools only count; we score readiness and show the potential invoice.

Task Board

Findings become assignable tasks; the analysis doesn't stay a report — it gets executed and tracked.

Executive Summary

AI that distills findings into four CFO-ready sentences — without ever changing the numbers.

Contract Analysis

Extracts terms from your contract text with on-prem AI; no line-by-line manual reading.

FUE Simulation

Computes the FUE you'll need for S/4HANA/RISE before you sign — you negotiate with a number.

Traceable evidence

Every recommendation ties to an evidence transaction; defensible in an audit. "No made-up numbers."

Read-only

The tool never writes to any SAP system; zero production risk.

Frequently asked questions

Things you might be wondering

Is our data safe? Is anything sent anywhere?
No. Ctrl-Cost is 100% on-premises; even the AI is local. Your data never leaves your server, nothing is uploaded, and the tool never writes to any SAP system — it is strictly read-only.
How long does setup take?
Minutes. A single file (or a direct RFC connection) is enough; we usually produce a first defensible position in half a day. No weeks/months rollout like enterprise platforms.
Which SAP versions are supported?
ECC and S/4HANA (including RISE). It works in both classic Named User and S/4HANA FUE mode, and simulates the FUE requirement before you sign.
Does the AI send our data to the cloud?
No. The language model runs on your server (e.g. Ollama). Individual user data and questions never leave your network — this is our biggest difference from cloud-based rivals.
What data do we need to provide?
SAP exports: user master, activity (ST03N), authorizations (SUIM) and transports. USMM/LAW, Digital Access, HANA and system landscape are optional and unlock extra modules. It can also be collected directly via RFC.
Are the results audit-defensible?
Yes. Every recommendation ties to the evidence transaction it rests on and carries a confidence level. Recommendations are consultant inputs, validated against your contract before any external statement — "no made-up numbers".
Does it change our licenses automatically?
No. The tool only recommends; it never writes to any SAP system. After your review, you apply the changes yourself via the SU10 action plan.
How is pricing, and how do we get a demo?
Accessible, license-based pricing; use the contact form for a quote tailored to your environment. The first analysis is free — we can plan the demo together.
