# SAMPLE — Cut overlapping AI subscriptions (one-pager)
**EXAMPLE ONLY — not a client case.** Pairs with https://aiproduct.reviews/content/cut-overlapping-ai-subscriptions

## Rule
Before renewing any AI seat, write:
1. **Pays for itself when…**
2. **Skip if…**

If either line is blank, you do not have a purchase thesis.

## Fictional stack outcome (Northline Ops)
| Job | Overlap | Action |
|-----|---------|--------|
| Draft / rewrite | Copy.ai + ChatGPT | Keep one LLM → cut Copy.ai |
| Meeting decisions | Fireflies vs no system | Keep Fireflies |
| Automation glue | Zapier + Make | One owner, one tool → Make |
| Ads creative | AdCreative.ai | Cut until ads spend exists |
| SEO suite | Semrush / Surfer | Wait until weekly publisher exists |

**Illustrative monthly save from clear cuts:** ~$68+ (Copy.ai + AdCreative) before automation consolidation.
