Couples and flatmates already track their shared subscriptions.
The shared note or the statement checked together is the log they already describe.
“We list our shared subscriptions in a shared note, not in an app.”

How we calculate confidence
A verdict needs at least 5 interviews used. Confidence stays low through 7, medium through 11, and high after that. When at least two thirds of the stories agree, confidence can be high. When at least one third line up, it can be medium. You also need at least 3 past facts from 2 people.
This summary tells you what the interviews showed, in a few lines.
Analysis summary
Billbye spots and cancels forgotten subscriptions. People already track shared subscriptions, as a couple or with flatmates. They praise the idea of an app that cancels everything, then describe the same shared note.
This chart shows whether each new interview still teaches you something.
What each interview added
The latest interviews add almost nothing new.
These lines are exact words from people, so you can judge for yourself.
Key messages
The real log: who pays for what, together.
“I spent an evening going through the statement with my flatmate to work out who paid for what.”
Each starting bet is confirmed, disproved or partly true, based on what people already did.
Hypotheses
Each card is a starting bet. We only quote what respondents actually said.
They want an app that cancels for them.
Five people contradict that use. They cancel things themselves.
“Nobody lets an app cancel for them: we cancel things ourselves, we just want to know who pays for what.”
A reminder before renewal helps, without replacing their shared note.
The reminder helps two people, who still keep their shared note.
“The reminder before renewal saved me one charge, but I kept our note.”

Three next actions
Here is what you can do with what you just read.
Shared expense note
Start from the action already taken: track together who pays for what, do not cancel for them.
Automatic cancelling
They cancel things themselves: they prefer to keep control of their own accounts.
The charge nobody uses
Reuse their words: who pays for what, not "optimise your subscriptions".
