Independent. Algorithmic. Sourced.

Every finding is tied to a specific line item, confidence-scored by Bayesian classifiers, and formatted for audit committee presentation. Not a consultant's opinion — a forensic analysis.

The problem

Nobody had ever aggregated the company's professional fees across vendors. Each relationship was managed by a different department. Finance saw the audit bill. Legal saw outside counsel. IT saw their consultants. Nobody saw the total.

What we found

Audit fees (Big 4 firm)$890K — 34% above peer median
Outside counsel (3 firms)$740K — parallel billing across firms
IT consulting$420K — 60% AI-replaceable tasks
SEC filing & compliance$380K — rate escalation 22% YoY
Management consulting$340K — scope creep vs. SOW
Business analysts & contractors$280K — 80% AI-replaceable
Insurance & broker fees$150K — in line with market
Audit fee analysis →▼

B4-AI benchmarked the company's $890K audit against 47 NASDAQ microcaps with comparable revenue, industry, and complexity. Peer median was $665K. The firm's rate had escalated 18% over three years with no change in scope. The audit committee used the analysis to renegotiate — new annual fee: $710K. Savings: $180K/year.

Legal spend consolidation →▼

Three outside firms were billing for overlapping work on the same regulatory matters. Firm A's associate reviewed documents that Firm B's partner had already analyzed. Cross-firm shadow billing totaled $148K. The company consolidated to two firms with clear scope boundaries. Savings: $165K/year.

AI replacement — IT & business analysts →▼

B4-AI identified $420K in IT consulting and $280K in analyst work where tasks were routine and AI-replaceable: log monitoring, report generation, data reconciliation, compliance checklists, vendor onboarding docs. The company migrated 14 recurring tasks to AI workflows. Savings: $167K/year.

Savings summary

Audit renegotiation$180K
Legal consolidation$165K
AI migration (IT + analysts)$167K
Total annualized savings$512K

ROI: 34x on B4-AI engagement fee. Savings validated by CFO and presented to audit committee.

Your data stays yours

Invoices contain deal names, counterparties, confidential terms. We built for that.

Analysis-only

Invoices processed and returned. Not stored. Not shared. Not used for training.

Anonymized benchmarks

Rate, hours, task, geography. No names. No matters. No parties.

Pipeline separation

Detection and benchmarking are architecturally separate systems.

Confidential by design

We need rate × hours × task. Everything else is discarded.

Pricing

Two models. Both aligned.
