In 2025, still too many companies are drowning in repetitive admin, losing almost half of their workweek to manual admin tasks.
Meanwhile, the average business juggles 300+ SaaS apps, creating a perfect mix of wasted spend, compliance risk, and burnout.
Luckily, with the right automation you can solve these bottlenecks first and be faster, leaner, and more secure than your competitors.
In this exclusive interview with SafetyDetectives, Héloïse Rozès, co-founder of Corma, explains how their agentic governance engine plugs into HR, identity, and finance systems to bring all these benefits in minutes:
- Cut SaaS waste by 20%
- Eliminate repetitive busy work
- Give IT leaders back 40% of their time
If you’re an IT leader stuck in spreadsheet hell, this could change your calendar (maybe your career too).
The Problem: IT Teams Stuck in A Hell Of Spreadsheet and Tools
Today, SME and mid-market IT teams spend over 40% of their week on low-value, manual administration: access reviews, onboarding, licence checks. These should have been automated years ago.
At the same time, SaaS sprawl has exploded to 335 apps per mid-market company, creating a perfect storm of wasted spend, security gaps, and audit nightmares.
Corma’s agentic governance engine plugs into HRIS, identity providers, and finance systems in minutes and does that busy-work for you, turning IT managers back into strategic innovators.
Why it’s urgent: regulatory pressure, run-away spend, workforce fatigue
Europe’s regulators now demand demonstrable control of data flows and third-party risk, defining sovereignty as “an urgent, board-level mandate” in the EU Digital Decade 2025 report.
Add to this the losses caused by SaaS waste, which is forecasted to reach $21 million per organisation (a 14% year-over-year increase), and IT teams losing two days a week on average to tasks that could be automated.
Anyone accountable for risk, spend, or compliance (CIOs, Heads of IT, CISOs, and CFOs) know the pain all too well, and they are stuck with it for two main reasons:
- The excel trap: About 30% of provisioned seats are never used, yet most teams still track usage with static CSVs.
- Point-solution fatigue: Traditional SaaS-management tools stop at visibility and MSPs bolt on yet another console but still rely on human ticketing. None offer unified governance and automated remediation with personalised, real-time insights.
A better solution: Automation + smarter processes
Corma allows teams to access 24/7 governance automations that:
- Spots usage in real time
- Enforces least-privilege on autopilot
- Fixes issues before they hit your inbox
No more endless spreadsheet exports, brittle V-lookups, and money wasted to pay an MSP every time a password reset is needed.
Corma connects to HR, identity, and finance stacks in minutes, and starts tracking every joiner, mover, and leaver event, right-sizes licenses the moment they go cold, delivering audit-ready evidence packs instantly.
By collapsing dozens of vendor dashboards into a single, intuitive cockpit and replacing ticket queues with no‑code, self‑healing workflows, Corma’s clients consistently cut SaaS waste by around 20% and reclaim roughly 40% of their team’s time without having to hire more people.
