Derivation Chain

Step 1 OpenAI Amazon AI subscription economy expansion
Step 2 Increase in digital subscription services for 50s
Step 3 Not knowing how much one spends on subscriptions monthly
Step 4 Card statement-based automatic subscription fee extraction and savings guide

Problem

People in their 50s-60s maintain 5-10 monthly subscriptions—Netflix, YouTube Premium, Melon, Naver Plus, Coupang Rocket Wow, AI services, etc.—without realizing the total cost. These charges are buried in card statements under English names and small amounts, making them hard to recognize, and it's common to keep unused subscriptions for 1-2 years. Unnecessary subscription costs average 300,000-600,000 KRW (approx. $225-$450) per year.

Solution

On the web, users upload card statement PDFs or Excel files, and the service automatically recognizes subscription payments, visualizing monthly and annual totals. It highlights subscriptions unused in the last 3 months, provides direct links to cancellation methods for each subscription, and recommends cheaper alternatives.

Target: Ages 48-62, using 2 or more credit cards, with 5+ digital subscriptions, office workers or self-employed individuals who do not carefully review monthly expenses.
Revenue Model: Free diagnosis (twice a year). Premium (quarterly automatic analysis + subscription optimization recommendations + savings tracking) at 2,900 KRW (approx. $2.18) per month.
Ecosystem Role: Consumer
