Find the Subscriptions You Forgot About
For the trial that turned into a yearly charge. DuckyHelper searches your receipts through Gmail's web API, lists every recurring charge with its yearly cost, and takes you to each cancel page. Canceling is your call.

Nothing to send, so it runs straight through.
Nothing in this job sends a message or pays for anything, so it works through to the end and tells you when it's done. If a step ever would, it's built to stop and ask you first.
If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.
Before you ask it.
What do I say?
Press fn (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux) and ask out loud, in your own words, like "Find all my subscriptions from my email receipts, list the yearly cost of each, and show me how to cancel the unused ones."
Why is the second time faster?
The first time, it writes small JavaScript tools for Gmail and Google Sheets and builds an API from each site's own buttons, forms and requests. After that it calls them directly, so the job runs in one go instead of click by click. It costs less and breaks less.
Will it send anything without me?
It's built to ask first before it sends a message or pays for anything, and to wait for your yes. It may not recognize every send or payment, so keep an eye on tasks that involve messages or money. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers: you sign in yourself, and it picks up from there.
Why not just do it by hand?
Subscriptions hide as small monthly charges across cards and inboxes, so they add up quietly.
