## AI overview

Productiv is shutting down its SaaS management platform, prompting customers to move app inventory, spend, and usage data. The article presents 1Password SaaS Manager as an alternative with AI spend and consumption tracking, SaaS discovery beyond SSO, access governance, and lifecycle automation.

## Source excerpt

On August 2, 2026, Productiv told customers its SaaS management platform was shutting down on August 6, with account data deleted once access ended. Four days is not much time to pull years of app inventory, spend, and usage data out of a system you've come to depend on, especially with AI tools now adding a fast-moving new layer of spend and access to track on top of everything else. If you're facing that deadline, or just taking stock of what you'd do if your own platform disappeared tomorrow, here's why 1Password SaaS Manager is the strongest place to land. A Leader you can build on 1Password SaaS Manager is a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SaaS Management Platforms, for both Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute. That recognition reflects work we've been doing deliberately since acquiring Trelica in 2025. We've brought AI and SaaS discovery into our broader Unified Access platform, alongside the credentials, identities, and access controls that secure every application in a portfolio. Built for how AI and SaaS actually get used today We recently launched AI Spend and Consumption Management inside SaaS Manager, giving IT and finance teams a normalized view of AI token usage by vendor, team, and model, with burn-rate alerts before prepaid budgets run out. AI is quickly becoming the least governed, fastest-growing corner of the software portfolio, and we built that governance directly into SaaS Manager rather than bolting it on as a separate tool. It's one of several capabilities that set SaaS Manager apart: Discovery that goes beyond SSO: SaaS Manager continuously discovers apps across identity providers, SSO logs, finance systems, browser extensions, and 1Password Enterprise Password Manager vaults, surfacing the unmanaged SaaS and shadow AI tools that SSO-only discovery misses. Governance you can act on: Discovery is anchored to credentials and sign-ins, so IT can revoke access and enforce strong authentication even for apps outside SSO,
