Press release: Otheo launches!

Adite launches Otheo, a further development of the Adite Intel platform, which cuts licence costs and eliminates licence overspending.

Norwegian businesses spend millions every year on unnecessary licences and unused SaaS subscriptions. Now Otheo, a powerful, Norwegian-developed SaaS Management Platform (SMP), is taking on the battle against licence overspending - delivering average savings of as much as 35 %.

From consultancy to technology

Behind Otheo is Adite, an independent Norwegian consultancy established in 2014. For a number of years, the company has helped medium-sized and large organisations reduce IT, telecom and licensing costs through market insight, negotiation expertise and technology.

With Otheo, Adite is now taking the next step - from consultancy to full automation.

"Organisations have long needed a better overview and control of their SaaS solutions. Many are paying for licences that aren't being used and are stuck with complex contract structures that steal both time and resources. Otheo does this work automatically - providing immediate insight and significant savings."

- Jon Ivar Bjørtomt, General Manager, Adite

A rapidly growing market

Gartner's latest survey shows the importance of better control in this landscape, and a growing need:

By 2027, organisations that do not achieve centralised visibility and coordination of SaaS lifecycles will spend at least 25 % more on SaaS due to unused entitlements and unnecessary, overlapping tools. (The 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SaaS Management Platforms)

Automated control and optimisation

Otheo monitors, analyses and manages all software licences in the business - across vendors and platforms.
The solution detects unused licenses, double payments and unnecessary subscriptions and provides specific recommendations for optimisation.

The intuitive platform is built for Nordic and European businesses, taking full account of local regulatory and security requirements.

"The market is flooded with SaaS solutions, and without a system like Otheo, many people lose track. Our platform gives organisations control, negotiating power and measurable results - automatically."

- Jon Ivar Bjørtomt, General Manager, Adite

According to Gartner, over the next few years, organisations will increasingly understand the benefits of adopting SMPs:

"By 2027, over 50 % of organisations will centralise the management of SaaS applications using an SMP, up from less than 10 % in 2024." (The 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SaaS Management Platforms)

From Adite Intel to Otheo

Otheo is a further development of Adite Intel - a solution that has already been used by several Norwegian organisations.
With a new name, new architecture and expanded functionality, Otheo is now ready to meet the needs of a rapidly growing global market.
