Workflow
1. Get Transaction CSV
Ask user for bank/card CSV export. Common sources:
- Apple Card: Wallet → Card Balance → Export
- Chase: Accounts → Download activity → CSV
- Mint: Transactions → Export
2. Analyze Recurring Charges
Read CSV, identify recurring patterns:
- Same merchant, similar amounts, monthly/annual frequency
- Flag subscription-like charges (streaming, SaaS, memberships)
- Note charge frequency and total annual cost
3. Categorize with User
For each subscription, ask user to categorize:
- Cancel - Stop immediately
- Investigate - Needs decision (unsure, trapped in contract)
- Keep - Intentional, continue paying
Ask in batches of 5-10 to avoid overwhelming.
4. Generate HTML Audit
Copy template.html and populate:
- Update header summary:
- Scope line: "found N subscriptions · N transactions"
- Breakdown: "Cancelled N · Keeping N"
- Savings: yearly amount big, monthly in parentheses
- Timestamp: current date
- Add rows to appropriate sections (cancelled/investigate/keep)
- Include notes from user responses
Row templates in the HTML comments show the structure.
5. Cancel Subscriptions
When user checks items and copies from floating button, they'll paste:
Cancel these: Service1 ($XX), Service2 ($XX)...
For each service:
