Signed up. Added a few accounts. Tried adding a custom app and it wanted me to subscribe for $29 per month. 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.

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.

We just launched our consumer focused Plus plan, featuring Netflix, Spotify and more. Check it out.

Great job! Unubo is an awesome interface for a potentially useful product! A few notes: - Github permissions seem excessive. You require: - Personal user date: full access - Repos: public and private - Delete repos - Read and write Gists - Access to all available organization - Dropbox requires access to all my files rather than just an App folder (or a limited scope) - All of the above for Trello I haven't tested th…

Hi there, just letting you know we reworked the access the above apps require, whilst still remaining useful.

Feel free to try it out again.

love this concept, could even find myself using it for personal use if it had other popular web subscriptions, ie: netflix, hulu, feedly, spotify, etc

That was what I assumed it was, I was a little disappointed on signing in! Would be great to have for Netflix + Google Music + etc.

Hey there, we just went live with a consumer focused plan, featuring the above.. Check us out!

Great idea, but I get spooked easily. I signed up, figured I'd add GitHub, saw "This application will be able to delete any repository to which you have admin rights," and ran away.

We reworked this now, and have reduced the access GitHub and other apps are asking for, whilst still remaining useful.

Feel free to check it out.

Thank you for your comment! Interesting thought.. if many more think the same as you, could be a possibility to add those too.

I would love that kind of support. I initially thought that was what you were providing, and I was rather excited. My subscriptions have become an unmanageable beast.

Hi there, we support this now! Check it out..

As just one guy, I have subscriptions/billing/licences for a ton of things: Adobe CC, Jetbrains, Sketch, AWS, GCP, DO, Deploybot, Dropbox, Arq, Shopify and others in addition to all the more "personal" stuff like Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, Pandora, Canary... I get why this is aimed at SME teams, but even one-man-teams/freelancers would find this super handy. I got excited and signed up only to realize of t…
