FREE TOOL · 2026 PRICING · NO SIGNUP
Most Americans underestimate their subscription spend by 2 to 3 times. Add the services you pay for, rate how often you actually use them, and we'll calculate your annual waste plus the cheaper or free replacements you've been missing.
STEP 1 OF 2
Start typing — we auto-match Netflix, Spotify, ChatGPT Plus, Adobe, NordVPN, gym memberships, and 145+ more.
Tip: rate each subscription 1–5 dots based on real usage. Apps you barely open = 1 dot. Things you'd cry without = 5 dots.
WHY THIS MATTERS
$273
2024–2025 surveys put average American subscription spend at $219–$273 per month. That's $2,600 to $3,300 a year before groceries.
3x
When asked to guess their monthly subscription spend, Americans typically guess one third of the real number. The other two thirds is pure subscription creep.
42%
About 42% of US adults admit to paying for at least one subscription they completely forgot about. The average forgotten subscription costs $11.40/month.

FAQ

You type a subscription name. We fuzzy-match it against a curated database of 145+ services pulled from public American pricing pages, then ask you to rate real usage from 1 to 5 dots. The waste score is the dollar value of subscriptions you rated 1 or 2 dots — the ones you barely use — projected over a year.
