TrialWatch – Find forgotten subscriptions in your billing inbox
Scans receipt emails to surface forgotten trials, duplicate charges, and silent price hikes
- Problem
- Small business owners and indie developers forget to cancel free trials, miss quiet price increases, or get double-charged until they dig through billing emails. Manually checking every receipt is tedious, and many SaaS tools bury the cancel button.
- Solution
- Forward receipts to a dedicated address or grant read-only inbox access; parse subscription name, amount, cycle, and next charge date; flag duplicates or charges after cancellation; send alerts before the next renewal.
- Users
- Indie developers, small business owners, and freelancers juggling many SaaS tools
- MVP
- Dedicated forwarding email for receipts; parse common receipt formats for name/amount/cycle; flag suspected duplicates or price hikes; pre-renewal email alerts; manual 'already cancelled' marking
- Revenue
- Subscription at $5–9/month, tiered by number of tracked subscriptions; free first month
- Why now
- Subscription overload and frequent price changes make cash flow painful for small teams; ready-made email parsing APIs let a solo dev ship this fast
