What it does

Instead of only finding fully idle seats, this agent looks at users who log in but barely use premium features they are paying for. It reviews each user's activity profile, decides whether a cheaper tier would cover their actual usage, and drafts a per-user downgrade recommendation with the reasoning and projected savings.

When to use it

When your vendors have tiered pricing and you suspect many users are over-licensed rather than inactive. Best for periodic cost-optimization reviews where judgment, not a hard rule, decides the call.

How it works

  1. 1A monthly schedule triggers the review.
  2. 2The flow pulls per-user feature-usage rows from your Airtable usage warehouse.
  3. 3An agent step evaluates each user against tier feature sets and decides keep, downgrade, or escalate.
  4. 4A logic step separates clear downgrades from ambiguous cases needing human review.
  5. 5Recommendations with reasoning and savings land in a Notion review doc.
  6. 6A digest is posted to Slack for the IT-ops lead.
