AI Tool Tracker & Stack Optimizer

A complete AI operations system for small service businesses, built by a PMP and Lean Six Sigma Green Belt with 8 years of enterprise operations experience.

💸 Most small businesses spend $200 to $500 per month on AI tools with no system to track ROI, catch renewals, or know what to cut. This workspace fixes that in under 10 minutes of setup.

What you get

🗂 AI Tool Inventory — every tool in one master database, with function categories that detect overlap automatically
💳 Subscription Cost Log — full billing and renewal tracker so nothing auto-charges you unexpectedly
📊 ROI Scoring Tracker — enter three numbers and the system outputs Keep, Monitor, or Cancel
💡 Use Case Library — your internal AI playbook, documenting exactly how each tool saves time and money
🔁 Function Category Library — the overlap detection engine that shows when two tools are doing the same job

What makes this different

✦ Automated ROI calculator — no guessing, just math
✦ Function overlap detection — see instantly when you are paying twice for the same job
✦ Dollar value of time saved calculated from your actual hours and rate
✦ Automated verdict system — Keep, Monitor, or Cancel based on your real numbers
✦ Renewal alerts so nothing surprises you
✦ Tools to Cancel view — your monthly waste eliminator
