AI subscription audit for a multi-product founder

Audit outcomes, not enthusiasm

List each subscription, current price, renewal date, the products it supports, and the last three outcomes it materially improved. Separate tools that execute product work from those used occasionally for exploration. Current prices and plan limits should come from provider billing pages.

Find overlap and single-provider risk

Two tools are not redundant if one provides a credible fallback or a distinct workflow. They are redundant when both are paid for but only one is trusted. Track interruptions, review burden, and time saved rather than prompt counts.

• Export invoices or inspect billing directly.
• Record plan owner and renewal date.
• Cancel experiments with no recent outcome.
• Keep one verified fallback for critical work.

Revisit quarterly

Models, limits, and prices change quickly. A short quarterly review keeps the stack aligned with the products you actually operate and prevents an old tool trial from becoming permanent overhead.

Primary sources

Provider terms and product behavior can change. Confirm plan, pricing, model, and permission details in the current official documentation.

• Anthropic pricing
• OpenAI pricing
