Case Study: School of Motion achieves immediate SaaS savings and frees 5+ hours/week with FinQuery

Popular Online Learning Platform Saves Thousands on Day One with StackShine

School of Motion, a fast-growing online learning platform for motion design, faced runaway SaaS spend after rapid expansion—hundreds of untracked tools, unused licenses left active, and no centralized visibility or control. To tackle this, School of Motion turned to FinQuery and its StackShine software spend management solution to regain oversight and stop wasted subscriptions.

FinQuery implemented StackShine integrations with Google Workspace and QuickBooks, provided spend analytics and automated alerts, and automated vendor and renewal tracking; this immediate rollout uncovered 300+ SaaS apps on day one, discovered 32 previously unknown apps, saved more than 5 hours per week on vendor management, and cut subscription costs by thousands. FinQuery’s solution gave School of Motion clear usage data, actionable recommendations, and ongoing notifications to prevent future overspend.
