AI Sub Radar
Track AI subscription quotas, ban risk and relay APIs so you stop wasting money
- Problem
- The AI subscription landscape is messy. One user bought a Grok subscription only to learn API access is separately charged and the quota works only inside Cursor or the vendor's bot. Another asked whether an opencode zen subscription means they can skip subscribing to Claude. A developer describes switching to a self-bought Plus plan and monthly throwaway Pro accounts while pausing sub2api accounts to survive a ban wave. Information is scattered across forum threads and group chats, making it hard to know if a subscription is worth it or safe.
- Solution
- A dashboard where users register their AI product subscriptions, quota usage and relay channels, then see actual usable scope, renewal dates and ban-risk flags in one place. A community-maintained knowledge base of what each subscription can and cannot do, plus a personal cost export.
- Users
- Indie developers and power users who hold several AI subscriptions and use relay APIs
- MVP
- Manual entry of subscriptions and renewal dates; display official quota limits and access channels per product; community-labeled common ban/restriction risks; monthly cost summary; browser sidebar for quick lookup
- Revenue
- Free base tier plus Pro subscription for bill sync, cost optimization tips and risk alerts; affiliate revenue from compliant relay services
- Why now
- AI subscription pricing, channels and ban rules change fast, raising decision costs; manual and community data can deliver value without building scrapers
