Your team already owns its software. Collet makes it official.
Collet gives every app at your company a DRI (one directly responsible individual), a standard, and a Scorecard, and does the chasing so IT doesn't have to. Your software list stays true because someone is responsible for every line of it.

Nobody is responsible, so nothing stays right.
Marketing picked HubSpot. Finance picked the accounting system. Engineering picked GitHub. Your team already owns its software, but nobody wrote that down, so nobody's job includes keeping each app in good shape.
So settings drift, renewals arrive as surprises, and people who left still have access. The software table in your security policy was accurate the day someone wrote it. When someone leaves, IT logs into admin consoles one at a time. When an auditor asks for the inventory, someone spends an afternoon rebuilding it.
Most tools answer this from the center: IT finds the apps, Finance cuts the spend, Security blocks the risky ones. That works at 30 apps and breaks at 130, because no central team can be the expert on every tool.
Name the DRI. Set the standard. Let Collet chase.

Connect Google Workspace and Slack.
Collet finds the apps your team uses, free, so you start from a complete list instead of a blank one. Import your Claude member list to see who has a seat. Add anything else by hand.
-
Give every app a DRI.
One directly responsible individual per app, usually whoever already picked it or runs it. Not a committee, one name. DRIs get a short task list, not a policy document.
-
Set the standard, and let the Scorecard show it.
Each app is checked against your bar: is sign-in through your identity provider, is MFA enforced, do we know when it renews, were departed employees removed? Each DRI sees their grade, and so does everyone else.
-
Collet does the chasing.
DRIs get reminded before renewals, after offboardings, and when a check fails. IT watches the scoreboard instead of doing every fix. When an auditor asks, one click exports your software table, current as of today.
What Collet does
Offboarding in one screen.
When someone is suspended in Google Workspace, Collet shows whether their access is gone from Slack and every other app it can see. For apps it can't check, it gives the app's DRI a checklist item.
Renewals you see coming.
Record when each app renews and what it costs. The DRI gets a reminder before the date, while there's still time to cancel, downgrade, or fix a check.
Seats that match people.
Compare paid seats with the people actually using them in Slack and Claude.
A DRI for every app, not just a list.
Other tools find your apps, cut your spend, or lock down access. Collet makes someone responsible for each app, and keeps them on top of it. It works alongside your identity provider and password manager, and reads from the same sources.
Built from a program that worked.
Scorecards come from the app ownership program our founder ran at Convoy: every app owned, every app scored, reviewed on a schedule. Collet does the chasing that used to take a spreadsheet and a lot of follow-up.
How software should be run
Read all seven principlesOne name next to every app.
Shared ownership means no one has it.
Set the bar centrally. Meet it locally.
A short list gets done. A policy document gets filed.
Enforcement is a trade-off.
Thought-through enforcement earns trust. Enforcement by default earns workarounds.
I ran this program by hand twice. At Headway it was a single spreadsheet listing every tool, its owner, and how to get help. At Convoy it grew into a 172-point scorecard for every app. Both worked, and both depended on someone chasing people every quarter. Collet does the chasing.
Collet is coming soon.
We're building it now, starting with our own team.
