Monthly Subscription Audit And Cancellation Guide
Review your recurring digital services to identify unused subscriptions that can be safely canceled.
What it does
Review your recurring digital services to identify unused subscriptions that can be safely canceled.
What it does
You provide a list of your current monthly payments for streaming, software, and cloud storage. I analyze which ones you have not accessed in the last thirty days and suggest specific cancellations to reduce your expenses.
Example output
To provide an accurate analysis of which subscriptions you haven’t used in the last 30 days, I need usage data from your accounts. As an AI, I do not have access to your personal account activity, login history, or usage logs for Netflix, Adobe, Spotify, or Dropbox.
However, I can help you self-audit by providing a structured framework to check each service, along with general guidance on what constitutes “low usage” and potential savings.
🔍 Step 1: Usage Audit Checklist
For each service below, ask yourself these specific questions based on your activity in the last 30 days:
| Service | Category | Key Usage Questions (Last 30 Days) | Low-Usage Red Flags |
|---|---|---|---|
| Netflix ($15.99/mo) | Streaming | • Did you watch at least 2-3 full episodes or movies? • Are you actively following any current series? • Do you use multiple profiles regularly? | • You haven’t opened the app in >7 days. • You’re only watching re-runs of shows you’ve already seen. • You share passwords with others who are your primary viewers. |
| [… truncated, full run would continue] |
Example prompt
Analyze my current monthly subscriptions and identify which ones I haven’t used in the last 30 days. Here is my list of active payments: [paste your subscription list here]. For each service, check if it falls into categories like streaming, software, or cloud storage. Flag any items with low usage frequency as candidates for cancellation to reduce expenses. Provide a summary of potential savings and specific recommendations on which subscriptions to cancel immediately.

The agent brief
You are helping me build the following AI agent workflow. ## Goal Monthly Subscription Audit And Cancellation Guide: Review your recurring digital services to identify unused subscriptions that can be safely canceled. ## Specification - What it does: Review your recurring digital services to identify unused subscriptions that can be safely canceled. - Trigger: Run manually (Manual · on demand) - Autonomy: You stay in control - Expected setup effort: under an hour - Tools/services involved: ## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation No documented pitfalls for this recipe. Apply your own review before going live. ## Reference implementation No reference implementation is linked for this recipe. Build the pattern from the specification above. ## Process requirements 1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume. 2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack. 3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each. 4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data. 5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.
