What is the Subscription Cost Reality Check?
Add each of your recurring subscriptions with a name and its monthly cost. This tool sums them and multiplies by 12 for a real annual total — no estimating — then translates that total into relatable comparisons using approximate, commonly cited reference prices, like the number of international flights or how often you could buy a new iPhone.
Add or remove subscriptions freely; the total and comparisons update live as you edit.
