Crowdsourced pricing benchmarks, free
The software pricing benchmarks others charge six figures for. Free.
Pricing benchmarks have been locked behind paywalls that can run into six figures, held by the people selling you the service. StackIQ crowdsources them and gives them back to the people who sign the contracts, free. You keep the data.
Free. No sales call. Contracts are anonymized before anything is shared.
Over 1,200 data points and counting
What it costs to know what you should pay
Crowdsourced from real contracts, anonymized, open to the people who sign them.
The vendor has the data. You are about to sign for three years without it.
Every vendor quotes you as if you are the only customer. The renewal lands with a 7% uplift, procurement asks for leverage, and there is none to be had because nobody in the building knows whether the price is in line with what comparable companies pay.
The leverage you are missing is a single number: what companies your size actually pay. Managed negotiation services will find it for you, charge for the privilege, and keep it. The benchmark subscriptions that have it are locked behind six-figure paywalls. Everyone else negotiates blind, and signs for years. For the full playbook, read how to get leverage in a SaaS renewal.
Benchmark your contracts in three steps
Free. No sales call. Contracts are anonymized before anything is shared.
Upload 3 contracts.
PDFs, order forms, or renewal quotes. StackIQ's document intelligence extracts vendor, product, seat count, unit price, term, and uplift automatically. You don't fill in a form.
See your benchmark.
For each product you get your effective price per seat (or per unit) against the benchmark range for companies your size in your industry, and a flag on every line sitting above that range. That flag is your opening position. We show a range once at least 5 comparable companies have contributed that product; where the data is still thin, we say so plainly and layer in StackIQ's own pricing intelligence so you still walk in with a number.
Keep contributing, keep winning.
Add contracts as they renew and your benchmarks stay live. Every upload tightens the ranges for everyone, including you.
We are building the largest open benchmark set for software pricing
Pricing data only works when enough companies share it, and until now the only people collecting it were selling it back at a markup. We are commoditizing it on purpose, and we are not being modest about the goal: every product a company renews, benchmarked from real contracts, open to the people who sign them. Your contracts are anonymized at upload. Company name, signatories, and identifying terms are stripped before any price point enters the set. What remains is the product, the industry, the company size band, the volume, and the price, which is what makes the benchmark relevant to a company like yours and nothing a vendor could trace back to you.
It is not only SaaS. Upload a services invoice and you can benchmark professional-services rates the same way: legal, consulting, agency, and M&A, against what comparable companies actually pay.
Over 1,200 data points and counting
Early access, and why it is worth more now
We are building the set now, so early members get what later members will not. Every contract you upload benchmarks against everything already in the set, and we tell you plainly when a vendor has too few data points to call. Where a benchmark is thin, StackIQ layers in its own pricing intelligence (list-price analysis, renewal uplift patterns, and the contract structures we have seen in customer work) so you still walk into the room with a number. And the ranges you help build are the ranges you negotiate against next year.
Frequently asked questions
Is it actually free?
Yes. The benchmark tier is funded by contributions, not subscriptions. StackIQ's paid platform (renewal tracking, overlap analysis, AI replacement) sits on top and is optional.
What happens to my contracts?
They are parsed, anonymized, and stored under the same SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 controls as the rest of StackIQ. No other member ever sees your document or your company name.
Which vendors are covered?
Coverage grows with every upload. Today it is strongest in the tools companies renew most often (collaboration, CRM, support, security, and Microsoft agreements). Upload yours and we will tell you immediately how many data points exist for each product.
Why 3 contracts?
Three is enough to unlock your benchmarks and small enough to pull from your renewal folder in a few minutes. Add more and the ranges sharpen.
How is this different from a managed negotiation service?
A managed negotiation service runs the deal for you, charges a fee, and keeps the pricing data it collects. StackIQ gives you that clarity directly, so you stop guessing whether you are overpaying. You see your effective price on every product against the benchmark for companies your size in your industry, and which lines sit above the range. You keep the data, the vendor relationship, and the decision, and you negotiate from evidence yourself.
