A subscription tracker that never asks for your bank login.
Add each recurring service with its billing cycle and see the number that matters: what it all costs per month and per year, sorted so the heaviest lines come first. You type them in, nothing is linked — 100% local, no account.

Name, amount, cycle. That’s the whole entry form.
Type a service — Netflix, AWS, a domain, a gym, that design tool you signed up for once — put in the amount, pick how often it bills, and it’s in. The widget immediately recalculates two totals: per month and per year. The yearly number is usually the one that changes behavior, because “$59.99 a month” and “$720 a year” do not feel like the same sentence.
The list itself is ordered by what each service actually weighs, heaviest first, with a proportion bar and its percentage of the total. That ordering is the point: cancelling three cheap things rarely moves the number, and the list makes the two lines that do move it impossible to miss. Removing an entry takes two taps, so a mis-click doesn’t delete anything, and the empty state offers categories — streaming, music, cloud — instead of a blank form.

Weekly times four is the mistake that hides 8% of your bill.
Most quick mental math treats a weekly charge as four times a month. There are not four weeks in a month — there are about 4.33. Over a year that shortcut under-reports a weekly subscription by roughly 8%, and it compounds across every weekly line you have.
So the widget normalizes properly: everything becomes a yearly cost first — weekly × 52, quarterly × 4, monthly × 12 — and the monthly figure is that yearly total divided by twelve. That is why a $25/week gym shows up as ≈ $108.33/month rather than $100. It is the number that matches your statement at the end of the year, which is the only one worth showing.
The same normalization drives the proportion bars: each service is compared on its monthly equivalent, so a yearly domain renewal and a monthly SaaS seat sit on the same scale and the ranking is honest.
- Weekly × 52 ÷ 12 ≈ 4.33 — not × 4
- Every cycle compared on its monthly equivalent
- Percentages computed from the normalized totals
- Covered by unit tests on the calculation itself
The apps that find your forgotten subscriptions can also read everything else.
The mainstream subscription trackers work by connecting to your bank or card and scanning transactions. That genuinely finds things you forgot — and it also means handing a third party continuous read access to every purchase you make, usually through an aggregator you’ve never heard of, in exchange for a monthly fee of its own.
This widget takes the other side of that trade. You spend two minutes typing in your services once; in return there are no credentials, no aggregator, no transaction history leaving your machine, and no subscription to track your subscriptions. It lives in your menu bar, so checking the number is a keystroke rather than a login.
- Manual entry — no banking credentials, ever
- Stored in the widget’s local storage, on your device
- No account, no sync, no analytics on what you pay for
- Honest limit: it can’t discover a subscription you don’t remember
Installed from the catalog, in one click.
Subscriptions isn’t bundled into the app — it’s a widget in the Webstarted Toolbox catalog. Download Toolbox, open the catalog tab (🧰), press the “+” next to Subscriptions, and it lands in your Finance tab. No reinstall, no app update. Here are a few of its neighbors:
Questions, answered.
Does it connect to my bank or credit card?
No, and it never will. You type in the services yourself. That is a real trade — an app with access to your statements can discover a subscription you forgot about, and this one cannot — but it also means there are no banking credentials to hand over, no third party reading your transactions, and nothing to breach. Everything stays in the widget’s local storage on your machine.
Does it convert between currencies?
No, deliberately. Every amount is entered and summed in one reference currency, which you pick in the widget’s settings. Adding a USD subscription to a EUR one at some guessed rate would produce a total that looks authoritative and is wrong; a total you cannot trust is worse than no total. If you need conversion, the Currency Converter widget is right there in the same app.
Does it remind me before a renewal charges?
No. This is a cost view, not a calendar: it answers “how much am I spending on recurring services”, not “what gets charged on Thursday”. There are no renewal dates and no notifications. If you want a warning before a specific annual renewal, add it to the Countdown widget alongside it.
How does it turn different billing cycles into one number?
By normalizing everything to a yearly cost first and dividing by twelve. Weekly is multiplied by 52 — not by 4, which is the shortcut that quietly under-reports a weekly charge by about 8% — quarterly by 4, yearly by 1. So a weekly service shows as roughly 4.33 times its price per month, which is what actually leaves your account over a year.
What does the list actually show me?
Your services sorted by weight, heaviest first, each with a proportion bar and its share of the total as a percentage — so the two lines responsible for most of the bill are the first two you see. Above them: the total per month and per year. Deleting is two taps, so you don’t lose a row to a mis-click, and the empty state suggests categories to get you started.
Is it free?
Yes. Webstarted Toolbox is free and needs no account, and Subscriptions is a free widget in its catalog — you install it in one click from inside the app. No trial, no premium tier gating the total.
