Audit
Subscription Audit Tool
Audit subscriptions, normalize billing cycles, and estimate realistic monthly and annual savings from unused services.
About This Tool
Use this audit tool to list recurring subscriptions, convert every billing cycle to a monthly equivalent, and identify services that are unused or rarely used.
Subscription Audit Formula
monthly spend = sum(cost converted to monthly); potential savings = monthly cost * usage waste ratioWeekly, quarterly, and annual costs are normalized to monthly cost. Savings are weighted by usage so essential services are not treated as waste.
Examples
Unused newsletter
$8 monthly, usage marked unused
Result: $8 monthly potential savings
Annual software subscription
$240 yearly, usage marked often
Result: $20 monthly equivalent with only a small waste estimate.
FAQ
Why not count every subscription as waste?
Some subscriptions save time, make money, or are essential. The tool weights savings by usage so the result is more realistic.
How often should I audit subscriptions?
Monthly is ideal for individuals and small teams. Businesses should also review annual renewals before contracts auto-renew.
What should I cancel first?
Start with subscriptions marked unused or rarely used, especially if they renew annually or have high monthly equivalents.
