I made a app after too many "Oh crap, forgot to cancel my subscription"

Hacker News

Hey there, My name is Thomas and I am a solopreneur. One day I realized I was paying for a lot of services I was no longer using, and I kept receiving those "You've been charged..." notifications. Sounds familiar? So I built Ruby, a web application that warns me right before trials are about to end or subscriptions are about to be charged. I've been using it personally and I've noticed 2 big changes in my spending: -37% reduction in monthly recurring costs -I get to explore a lot more SaaS projects without the fear of forgetting to cancel them I hope Ruby is as helpful to you as it is for me, and I would appreciate some feedback as this is my first project I've actually launched. Thank you and keep on building! Thomas Link: https://rubyapp.net?ref=hackernews
