How Much Are You Wasting on Subscriptions?
With streaming, software, fitness, and news services multiplying, subscription costs can quietly spiral out of control. This audit tool lets you list every subscription with its usage frequency, then instantly calculates your total monthly cost and highlights the services worth canceling.
How Waste Is Estimated
Usage frequency is mapped to a waste percentage: Frequently used (0% waste), Occasionally used (50% waste), and Rarely used (100% waste). These estimates help you prioritize which services to cancel or replace with free alternatives.
Subscription Cleanup Strategy
Start by canceling "rarely used" services immediately. For "occasionally used" services, look for free alternatives or consider sharing plans with family. Switching from monthly to annual billing typically saves 20–30% on services you actively use.
