Up and running in 5 minutes

Connect your sources, and your agent starts discovering your stack immediately. No manual data entry. No spreadsheets.

​
Step 1: Create Your Account

  1. Go to app.porcia.org/signup
  2. Enter your name, email, and password
  3. Verify your email address
  4. Log in to your new account
You’ll be guided through an onboarding flow after your first login to help you connect your first integration.

​
Step 2: Connect Your Email

Email integration is the fastest way to start discovering vendors. Choose one of these methods:
1

Click 'Connect Gmail' or 'Connect Outlook'

During onboarding or from Settings → Integrations → Email
2

Authorize Porcia

Grant read-only access to your email (we never send emails from your account)
3

Wait for initial sync

Porcia will scan your recent emails to discover vendors (takes 2-5 minutes)

​
Option B: Email Forwarding

1

Get your unique forwarding address

Find it in Settings → Integrations → Email
2

Set up auto-forwarding

Create filters in Gmail/Outlook to forward vendor emails to your Porcia address
3

Start forwarding

Vendor emails will be processed automatically
OAuth connection is faster and more comprehensive, but forwarding gives you more control over what Porcia sees.
If your organization uses SSO, connect it to discover all applications your team accesses:
  1. Go to Settings → Integrations → SSO
  2. Click Connect Google Workspace
  3. Review the privacy notice and click Accept & Continue
  4. Sign in with your Google Workspace admin account
  5. Grant the requested read-only permissions
  6. Porcia will discover all apps accessed via Google SSO
SSO integration requires admin permissions on your identity provider. If you don’t have admin access, ask your IT team to set this up.

​
Step 4: Install Browser Extension (Optional)

Detect SaaS logins to identify shadow IT and underutilized licenses:
  1. Search for “Porcia” on the Chrome Web Store
  2. Click “Add to Chrome”
  3. Sign in with your Porcia account
  4. The extension will start detecting SaaS logins automatically
The browser extension is privacy-first - all analysis happens locally in your browser. Only domain names, detection method, and whether a work email was used are sent to Porcia.

​
Step 5: Explore Your Dashboard

Once your integrations are connected, you’ll see:
  • Discovered Vendors - All SaaS applications found across email, SSO, and browser
  • Total Spend - Estimated annual software spending
  • Upcoming Renewals - Contracts expiring soon
  • Usage Analytics - Which apps your team actually uses
  • AI Insights - Optimization opportunities and negotiation suggestions
