Upveno dashboard: monthly cost tracking over twelve months and the three largest cost categories
Maintenance contract Notice deadline approaching
27 Oct 2026
Last day to give notice. Otherwise the contract renews automatically for 12 months.
The problem

Without an overview, opportunities are lost.

It starts small: nobody sees the full picture. But if you can't see the full picture, you can't see the savings opportunities either. And what nobody sees, nobody follows up.

No overview

Costs are everywhere

Invoices scattered across accounting, departments and dozens of suppliers. Nobody can see at a glance what goes out per category and per supplier.

No insight

Opportunities stay invisible

Which rate is rising, which contract is about to renew, which cost hasn't been optimised in years: it goes unnoticed. And without a point of reference, nobody knows whether you are paying market rates. The savings opportunity is there, but nobody sees it.

Opportunities lost

So you pay too much

Notice periods expire, contracts renew tacitly and price increases simply get paid. What isn't seen isn't followed up.

The platform

More than an overview. Software and cost experts in one subscription.

Upveno pulls your invoices from your accounting system and turns them into a working tool: insight, market comparison, owners, projects and reporting. Spendless cost experts keep an eye on things with you and take action where you want them to.

Insight

All invoices automatically classified by cost category and supplier, per company or for the whole group. Evolution versus last year, new suppliers and rising costs visible at once.

Benchmark & optimisation

Your costs side by side with Spendless benchmark data. You see where you pay above market, which costs deserve attention first and where you can optimise concretely.

Contract management

Add a contract from a PDF: AI fills in the details, you confirm. The status calculates itself from the end date, notice period and renewal terms, with an alert before the notice date.

Cost ownership

Every cost category, supplier and contract gets an owner. That way everyone knows who follows up, and nothing falls through the cracks.

Project management

Every savings opportunity becomes a project with tasks, an owner and a deadline. You track potential and realised savings until they show on the invoice.

Dashboards and reporting

Dashboards per company or for the group, and reporting for management and finance. Plus ongoing invoice auditing per month or quarter.

Spendless clients

The same data and experts, already proven in practice.

Upveno builds on the benchmark data and cost expertise that Spendless has applied for years at small and large companies. Here is how clients experience that collaboration.

No cure, no pay audit

“Beyond the financial savings, the collaboration and your expertise on our files have given us more peace of mind internally.”

David Van den Weghe CEO, Colmar Group
External Spend Manager

Spendless in three words: “Professional, hassle-free, results-driven.”

Peder Wessel Finance Director, SERIS Technology
No cure, no pay audit

“An independent analysis of your contracts combined with market rates means Spendless can accurately assess which contracts can be improved. What's more, everything is worked out at Arodo's pace and in consultation with Arodo.”

Dennis Boesmans Financial Director, Arodo

Questions

What CFOs ask us first.

How do my invoices get into Upveno?

During the pilot, we connect your accounting software to our platform. You don't need to install anything yourself. We'll discuss which integration works best for your software during the introductory call.

What do the Spendless cost experts do?

They periodically review your opportunities with you and help you prioritise, with market context from Spendless benchmark data. If you want an opportunity to be executed, you use Spendless credits: for targeted guidance, such as reviewing a quote, or for full execution, from renegotiation to invoice auditing. During the pilot you receive 20 credits.

What happens to my data?

Your data is used solely to build your own overview. Upveno is hosted by Combell, a Belgian hosting provider. All connections are encrypted with SSL, sign-in uses two-factor authentication (2FA), and access management lets you decide who sees what. You receive a data processing agreement (DPA) in line with the GDPR.

Does Upveno use AI?

Only where it saves time, such as reading a contract PDF. AI reads your documents to fill in fields, not to train models. You always check and confirm yourself. An administrator can switch off AI processing for the whole organisation; you then fill everything in manually.

Does it also work for a company without a group structure?

Yes. Upveno works just as well for a single company as for a group. If you have multiple entities, you can view them separately or together.

What does it cost after the pilot?

A fixed monthly subscription, plus credits when you engage Spendless for a savings project. You'll receive the exact amounts in the pilot proposal.

What if it's not a fit for us?

Then the pilot ends, at no cost. Your feedback still helps us, and you'll stay informed about the launch if you wish.
