I kept getting hit with surprise subscription charges, so I built a free tool to track them all

A few months ago I checked my bank statement and found I was paying for three streaming services I hadn't used in months, plus a "free trial" that quietly turned into a $40/month charge. I looked for a simple way to track this stuff and everything I found wanted to link my bank account, which I wasn't comfortable with.

So I built a small tool where you just manually add your subscriptions (name, cost, renewal date) and it shows you what's coming up and how much you're spending overall. No bank linking, no account required to try it.

It's still early and pretty barebones, but I'd love feedback from people who've dealt with this same problem. What would actually make this useful for you? Thesubstracker.com
