DeutschLicenseMeter vs Torii
A hosted SaaS and AI management platform that discovers the SaaS and AI stack, reclaims wasted spend and automates onboarding and offboarding, sold as SaaS management, identity governance and AI management. Freshworks agreed to acquire Torii on 12 October 2026; when we checked, the deal had not closed and Torii said it operates independently until then.
LicenseMeter: A free, MIT-licensed tool that connects read-only to Microsoft 365, finds disabled, inactive and unassigned paid seats and unused Copilot licenses, prices each finding, and cross-checks a handful of other SaaS tools against Entra ID. Built for Microsoft 365 admins and MSPs who want the waste number without buying a platform.
The short answer
Pick Torii if
- You need shadow IT discovery and automated joiner, mover and leaver workflows across hundreds of apps.
- You want identity governance and access reviews from the same vendor.
Pick LicenseMeter if
- You want Microsoft 365 waste found and priced without a sales process or a platform budget.
- You want a read-only tool you can self-host, or run free on EU-hosted licensemeter.com.
Where Torii is stronger
- Hundreds of pre-built integrations, plus an AI builder, API and CSV for the rest.
- No-code workflows that act on findings, including an Unassign Microsoft 365 license action and approvals in Slack.
- Shadow IT discovery from a browser extension, OAuth grants, SSO and finance data.
- Microsoft 365 Copilot reporting with prompts and active days per person and dormant-seat detection.

| Feature | Torii | LicenseMeter |
|---|---|---|
| Finding Microsoft 365 waste | ||
| Flags inactive or disabled licensed users | Yes Marks licenses inactive after an inactivity period (default 30 days) and can disable Entra ID users for leavers. Source | Yes Disabled accounts that keep licenses, licensed accounts that were never active, and seats idle past your threshold, from sign-in activity and per-workload usage. Source |
| Flags purchased but unassigned seats | Yes Splits license totals into active, inactive and unassigned. Source | Yes Paid seats bought but assigned to nobody become priced shelfware findings. Source |
| Reports unused Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses | Yes With the AI module: Copilot seats, prompts and active days per person over 7 to 180 days, and seats with no prompts in 90 days. Source | Yes Copilot seats with no Copilot activity in the threshold window are their own finding. Source |
| Puts a cost on each finding | Yes Each downgrade or reclamation shows its savings impact. Source | Yes Every finding carries a monthly cost in the workspace currency. Source |
| Uses your own contract prices | Yes Copilot cost uses the license price you record in Torii. Source | Yes An editable price book per workspace, prefilled with list-price estimates. Source |
| Coverage beyond Microsoft 365 | ||
| Reads license data from non-Microsoft SaaS | Yes Hundreds of pre-built integrations, no exact count published. Source | Yes 8 connectors: Adobe, Zoom, Atlassian, Salesforce, OpenAI, Anthropic, ChatGPT and Claude. Far fewer than a SaaS management platform. Source |
| Discovers unsanctioned apps (shadow IT) | Yes Browser extension, OAuth grants, identity, finance and procurement sources. Source | No Only the apps you connect are read. There is no discovery of unknown apps. Source |
| Tracks OpenAI and Anthropic API spend | Yes Tracks OpenAI API keys and token volume by model; Anthropic is a connected vendor. Source | Yes Daily OpenAI and Anthropic API spend, kept separate from per-seat costs. Source |
| Measures desktop software usage | Partly No agent of its own; imports app and, for some sources, usage data from MDM tools such as Jamf and Intune. Source | Partly Windows apps deployed through Intune only, read from an Intune Remediation. Hosted Pro and MSP plans, or self-hosted. Source |
| Tracks contracts and renewals | Yes Contract ingestion, renewal clause detection and alerts. Source | Yes Contract dates and notice deadlines per vendor, shown next to the open findings they affect. Source |
| Acting on findings | ||
| Removes or reassigns licenses itself | Yes Workflows reclaim seats after an inactivity threshold, with Slack approvals. Source | No By design: LicenseMeter never changes licenses itself. It generates a PowerShell script for the seats you pick, and your IT reviews and runs it. Source |
| Deployment and price | ||
| Can be self-hosted | No Torii states there is no on-premise deployment option. Source | Yes Docker Compose, with every feature included. Source |
| Open source | No Proprietary. Source | Yes MIT license. Source |
| Free plan (not just a trial) | No Every offering leads to a demo request. Source | Yes Free with no time limit, including monitoring and exports. Source |
| Prices published | No No public price list. Source | Yes Pro EUR 99 per month, MSP EUR 299 per month. Source |
| Multi-tenant for MSPs | Partly An MSP partner track exists; a multi-customer console is not documented. Source | Yes Multiple workspaces on every plan; the MSP plan adds portfolio alerts, one team across clients and white-label reports. Source |
| EU hosting available | Not stated Its privacy notice excludes customer data, and we found no statement on where customer data is hosted. Source | Yes Hosted data lives in Frankfurt (AWS eu-central-1). Source |
