Agreed, right now I use a spreadsheet to track subscriptions, it works great. I think an app like this can replace and add value to a simple spreadsheet but $300 more dollars year to track services I already subscribe too is way to much.
I would shoot for lower per year cost, around the $20 to $25 mark.

Not publicizing this since it’s not officially launched (close to finished), but check out an app I’ve been working on. Receiptdefender.com. Add any subscription as a recurring receipt and you now will see how much you’re spending very easily!
P.S. Native apps will be out right after launch :)
Currently the freelancer price is $10 a month. Not set in stone and no credit card needed to sign up. Would love thoughts from here!

As responded above, we've aimed this at businesses.
Seems like we'd have success also targeting this at consumers, for personal use. Something for us to think about.

Same here, I use a spreadsheet for my budget.

Permissions have been reduced, and we just went live with a consumer focused plan. Feel free to check it out!

Thanks for giving us your feedback, means a lot. At the moment we've aimed this at businesses, and are seeing a fair bit of response asking for something consumer focused.
Definitely thinking about how we could approach this.
I would happily pay for a service like this but not $300+ per year. As is, there is a free account or one targeted at businesses. What about an upgraded single user tier in the $50 per year range?
Also, as others stated, permissions on Github, Dropbox, etc. seem excessive.
