The moat · What sets us apart
We are not consultants. We are operators with a 28-attorney firm on call, a 16-million-member network behind every negotiation, and 19 years of vendor pricing data nobody else can see. Pay only when verified savings hit your account.
To find hidden costs, sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants; electric light the most efficient policeman.
Louis D. Brandeis, “What Publicity Can Do,” Harper’s Weekly, December 20, 1913. Republished in Other People’s Money and How the Bankers Use It, 1914.
Brandeis wrote this line in 1913 about the banking industry. He had spent a decade exposing how banks were quietly charging hidden fees, self-dealing, and skimming from clients who had no way to see what was happening. His argument was simple: when light hits the books, the rot stops growing.
A century later, Brandeis would have been astonished at how little has changed for operating businesses. Most companies still overpay vendors by 15 to 40 percent, and nobody is going line by line through the invoices to catch it. The fees keep growing in the dark.
That is why we built Sunlight Expense Auditor Software. It scans every line of operating spend across 55+ categories. It finds the leaks, surfaces the duplicates, flags the overcharges, and benchmarks every contract against current market rates. Then we negotiate the savings on the client’s behalf.
Brandeis was right. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. We just made it easier to point.
Three core client profiles produce the highest realized savings against effort — from operating companies to family-office platforms and individual principals. Each carries a dense vendor stack with predictable categories of leakage.
Multi-location practices and physician groups. Predictable category mix with high concentration of recoverable spend.
Multifamily, commercial, and hospitality portfolios. Dense vendor stacks across utilities, insurance, janitorial, waste, and maintenance.
PE portfolio companies, family-office multi-entity platforms, founders running multiple operating businesses. Cross-entity leakage is the rule, not the exception.
Sample team members from our 16-person operating team plus our vendor partner network. Your specific engagement is staffed based on the cost categories where we identify savings opportunities. Final team assignments confirmed at engagement scoping. Plus a 28-attorney law firm on call any day we need contract review or escalation to move a stuck vendor along.
Specialists assigned per engagement. Your team will be a subset of the above plus relevant vendor partners.
Your CFO cannot put a 28-attorney law firm on call any day to review contracts and escalate stuck negotiations. Your CFO is not backed by a 16-million-member operator network feeding live vendor pricing data. Your CFO does not have Sunlight Expense Auditor Software cross-referencing 100 million data points and 3,000+ benchmarks per file.
That is the moat. Three pieces of strategic leverage no operating company can build in-house — backed by 19 years of Family Office Club community data. Pay only when verified savings hit your account.

Our fee is contingency-based and structured around the size of your engagement, your vendor spend, and the cost categories in scope. We never charge upfront. The fee is only triggered after verified savings hit your bank account. Schedule a scoping call and we’ll walk through the exact structure.
No. Zero upfront cost. Zero monthly retainer. We are 100% contingency. If we don’t find savings, you don’t owe us anything.
We do not bill hourly and we do not produce reports. We are accountable for realized dollar reductions, not advice. The work is executed by specialist partners who own the long-term operational relationship downstream.
The first audit takes just 15 minutes of your time. Engagement length depends on the category mix; most engagements track savings on a multi-year measurement window. Cancel anytime with 30 days written notice.
You do. We earn a contingency fee on verified savings during the measurement period, structured at engagement. The exact percentage and measurement window are tailored to your file during the scoping call.
For operating companies, the economics work best at $1M and above in annual revenue. For individual investors and family-office principals, we engage at $10M+ in net worth where wealth-management, advisory, banking, and insurance fees create comparable savings categories. We will accept smaller engagements selectively where the category mix is favorable.
A curated network of category specialist partners assigned to each file. We coordinate. They execute. Our outside counsel sits beside them. The client approves every change.
No risk. No obligation. We’re contingency-based — we don’t get paid unless you do. Tell us about your business and Tabatha will come back with a specific savings estimate within 24 hours.
