Subscription Intelligence Hub

The Subscription & Purchase Intelligence Hub is a solution to the problem of forgetting why we pay for certain subscriptions and bills. The hub uses AI to extract financial information from receipts and related chats, including vendor, product, price, and category. It also analyzes the sentiment of discussion emails using NLP. Users can forward their e-receipts and emails to a single hub address, and the AI will connect the spending to contextual insights. The hub provides a personal view of finances with clear explanations, helping users understand their money. A live demo is available, where users can forward their bills and receipts to a specified email address and access a dashboard to see their financial summary. The dashboard shows monthly and category-wise spending, and provides detailed financial card item open views, including next payable dates and a feature to add renewal to a calendar. The app was built using Node.js/Express backend, PostgreSQL database, and a React frontend, with Postmark's email ingestion and OpenAI API for parsing financial details. The creator plans to enhance the app by adding Google calendar integration in the future. The app aims to turn messy email data into clear, actionable insights, and help users understand their spending habits.
