Productiv

We've all witnessed SaaS companies deploy AI features at a staggering rate. Ever wonder just HOW staggering? We analyzed 18,000+ SaaS applications to understand AI functionality & training posture across the entire marketplace. We wanted to know who has AI, who's training on customer data, who's not, and who isn't saying. What we found: 📈 Confirmed AI training more than doubled in just five months. 👁️🗨️ Apps deployed in paid portfolios are 1.45× more likely to train on customer data. 🤫 The default training posture, by far, is "unknown".

Remember that AI audit you performed last month? Hate to be the one to break it to you, but it's already expired. AI functionalities are shifting constantly. An app that yesterday had a simple chatbot today includes agentic features and models that train on data by default. This creates a critical AI governance gap, as Legal, Security, and IT are all being asked to sign off on tools that evolve faster than internal review cycles. Productiv now highlights new and updated AI capabilities across your SaaS portfolio. Instead of relying on vendor announcements or periodic audits, you can now spot AI risk the moment it changes, reducing your blind spots as data-hungry AI features roll out. Pretty slick, right? More here --> https://lnkd.in/g-WkiHYX

"When we first started, AI was few and far between. A year later, it was creeping into every product we had. We couldn’t always turn it off or even make a choice as an IT Team." That was the reality for Martin Brej, SVP of Corporate IT & Data Warehousing at UserTesting. Vendors were quietly rolling out new AI capabilities, often enabled by default. No approval. No warning. No opt-out. To keep innovation moving without losing control, Marty used Productiv’s AI Visibility to create a complete, authoritative inventory of AI across 195 SaaS applications. How do you regain visibility when AI shows up overnight? Well, you could start by seeing how Marty did it.

AI Governance isn’t a nice to have, it’s a board-level mandate. And that usually means one thing: more meetings. The AI Council assembles. Legal, IT, HR, and Security join the call. You spend 5-8 minutes making idle small talk about your weekends. And then what? Where do you start? With AI, of course. We pulled together 14 prompts to kickstart your AI governance strategy and turn “we should probably do something about AI” into the bones of an actual plan. It’s not policy-ready, but it is the jumpstart your AI Council needs. 👉 Read the prompts here: https://lnkd.in/gfR2ZQmC

AI is already in your stack: shadow tools, auto-renewing contracts, licenses nobody’s tracking. Without context, you’re blind. Without scale, you’re stuck in the weeds. That’s why we built AI Visibility. And with today's release, Productiv takes another step toward being your system of record for SaaS and AI. 🔥 Columns that matter See who owns the app, which cost center is paying for it, how big the footprint is, and when the contract comes due. Context at a glance, no swivel-chairing across systems. ⚡ Bulk updates that scale Stop clicking through apps one by one. Move dozens through review in a single step. AI adoption is inevitable. The question is whether you can roll it out with clarity, speed, and control. See the whole picture. Govern at scale. Roll out AI.

Over the last year, nearly every SaaS vendor has quietly shipped AI features into their products. Each of those features can change how your data is handled, your risk posture, and your compliance obligations. Until now, IT teams had no way to see where AI was showing up across their SaaS portfolios. That changes today. We’re thrilled to introduce AI Visibility, the first capability of its kind inside Productiv. It automatically detects when vendors add AI, what type it is, and whether it trains on your data. With AI Visibility, you can: 🔦 Spot Shadow AI in both approved and unapproved tools 🔬 Understand exposure and manage risk proactively 📊 Show responsible adoption to executives and the board Ready to Light Up Shadow AI inside your perimeter?
