What does the subscription cost auditor calculate?
It adds up every subscription you list and shows total monthly cost, total yearly cost, your top three most expensive ones, subs you are not actually using (zero hours logged), and cost per hour of use for the rest. The point is to surface the worst-value subscriptions so you can decide what to cancel. Mixed currencies and billing cycles are normalized to monthly USD using a static rate table.
Where is my subscription data stored?
In your browser's localStorage on this device only. Nothing is uploaded, no account is needed, and we cannot see your list. If you clear your browser data, switch devices, or use a private window, the list will be empty. Use the Export CSV button if you want a portable backup, and Import CSV to restore it on another device.
How do you turn weekly and yearly subscriptions into a monthly cost?
Yearly subscriptions are divided by 12. Weekly subscriptions are multiplied by 52 and divided by 12 (so a $5/week subscription becomes about $21.67/month, not $20). This is the standard cycle normalization - it accounts for the fact that a year is 52 weeks, which is a bit more than 12 four-week months. Costs in non-USD currencies are converted with a fixed approximate rate.
Why does cost per hour of use matter?
A $10/month app you use 40 hours is $0.25/hour - basically free. The same $10 app you use once is $10/hour, which is worse than most movie tickets. Cost per hour reframes value better than raw price: an expensive subscription you use heavily can be a bargain, and a cheap one you ignore can be the worst deal in your stack. The audit sorts the worst offenders to the top.
Is the conversion rate live?
No. The rates are baked into the page so the tool works fully offline and does not phone home. They are approximate and updated only when we ship a new version of the tool. If you need accurate cross-currency totals, enter every subscription in the same currency, or use a live currency converter for the final number. For getting a sense of where your money goes, the static rates are more than good enough.
What categories should I assign?
Whatever helps you spot patterns. We provide entertainment, productivity, fitness, news and other as defaults because those map to the buckets most people overspend in. The pie chart in the result panel groups by category, so if you discover that 60 percent of your spend is "entertainment" you may have an answer about where to trim. The category does not affect any calculation - only the visual breakdown.
