Revenue leakage is silent. It does not appear as a line item. It hides in unbilled services, pricing exceptions that were never reversed, expired discounts that remain active, and contract terms that nobody enforces. Revenue Leakage Playbooks scan across billing, contracts, and pricing to find the money your business has already earned but never collected.
The Challenge
When a pricing exception is entered manually, the system applies it faithfully. When a discount expires, nobody changes the rate. When a contract amendment adds scope, the billing configuration may never get updated. Each error is small, but they accumulate to millions.
Enterprise deals have tiered pricing, volume commitments, annual escalators, and usage-based components. With hundreds of active contracts, ensuring that every billing event matches the contracted terms is beyond what manual reviews can achieve consistently.
Finance sees revenue below forecast. Sales says the deals are solid. Operations says delivery is on track. The gap between contracted value and collected value falls into a void between departments where nobody is measured on closing it.
How eyko Solves It
A Revenue Leakage Playbook connects to your billing system, contract repository, CRM, and ERP. It compares contracted terms against actual billing events, identifies discrepancies, quantifies the cumulative leakage, and recommends specific recovery and prevention actions.
The Playbook scanned 1,840 active contracts against 12 months of billing data and identified $2.6M in cumulative revenue leakage. The largest category is expired discounts still applied ($1.1M across 94 accounts). Unbilled contract escalators account for $680K, and manual pricing exceptions that were never reversed add another $420K.

FAQ
Everything you need to know about Revenue Leakage Analysis.
Revenue Leakage Detection is an AI-powered analysis that compares contracted terms against actual billing events to find revenue your business has earned but never collected. It scans for expired discounts still being applied, missed contract escalators, unbilled services, manual pricing exceptions, and volume tier errors. The output is a quantified leakage report with specific accounts, dollar amounts, root causes, and recovery actions.
The Revenue Leakage Playbook connects to your billing system (Zuora, Stripe, custom), contract repository (Salesforce CPQ, Ironclad, DocuSign), CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot), and ERP (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite). It compares contracted pricing, discount schedules, escalation clauses, and volume commitments against the actual invoiced amounts and payment records in your financial systems.
Industry benchmarks suggest that 1-5% of contracted revenue leaks due to billing errors, pricing exceptions, and contract enforcement gaps. For a company with $100M in annual recurring revenue, that translates to $1-5M per year. The exact amount depends on contract complexity, the number of manual pricing exceptions, and how tightly billing systems are integrated with contract management.
The Playbook identifies both prospective leakage (revenue you will miss in future billing cycles) and retrospective leakage (revenue you have already missed). Whether retrospective amounts are recoverable depends on your contract terms and customer relationships. Most teams focus first on correcting billing rates going forward to stop ongoing leakage, then pursue retroactive recovery on the largest accounts where contract terms support it.
