Why we are building SpendFinder
Subscription management should save money, not require an enterprise budget and a procurement department of its own.
Waste rarely announces itself
A forgotten subscription does not look alarming on a statement. It looks like another small monthly charge. That is why software waste survives: each item is easy to ignore even when the total is not.
As a business grows, buying becomes distributed. One team starts a trial, another pays for an overlapping tool, and a former employee's account keeps renewing. The shared spreadsheet is accurate only on the day someone audits it.
The market starts at the wrong end
Established subscription-management products are often designed for enterprise procurement and IT teams. Their pricing may be hidden, their contracts long, and their implementation heavier than the problem a smaller business is trying to solve. A tool intended to reduce spend should not become one of the largest subscriptions on the list.
Manual audits are cheaper in theory and costly in practice. They consume time, go stale immediately, and depend on every purchase being reported.
Two practical ways to discover spend
SpendFinder will start with the places subscriptions already reveal themselves. Inbox scanning finds receipts and invoices. Bank scanning, where open banking is available, finds recurring payments that email alone can miss. The result is a working inventory, a renewal calendar, and a clear set of charges worth reviewing.
There will be no chatbot pretending to understand a billing question. Every plan includes email support from a human who can look at the actual problem and reply plainly.
Pricing that leaves room for savings
Inbox Scan will cost $99 per month or $990 per year. Bank Scan will cost $199 per month or $1,990 per year where open banking is supported. Launch-list members receive the first month free when SpendFinder launches in Q4 2026.
