Subify: the subscriptions you forgot you were paying for

Trial-end and payment reminders, monthly and yearly spend, and a financial picture that never leaves the phone.

Subscription pricing works because forgetting is the default. Efe Canbolat built Subify to make the total visible and to move the alert to where it matters — before the charge, not after it.

01The alert has to arrive early

A notification the day after a charge is a receipt, not a warning. Subify notifies before a free trial ends and again one day before a payment is due, which is the window where cancelling is still a decision rather than a dispute.

Subscriptions can be picked from a list of popular services or entered manually, each with its own payment date, trial period and cost.

02Seeing the total

Individually every subscription looks affordable. That is the mechanism. Subify aggregates them into monthly and yearly statistics so the real number is visible in one place.

From there it works as a budget tool: total recurring cost, where the money goes, and which services justify their line.

03Local by default

A list of every service someone pays for is a precise map of their life. Efe Canbolat designed Subify local-first for that reason — the financial picture is assembled on the device and stays there.

No account, no sync, no server holding a copy.

Subify is designed and built by Efe Canbolat under CNBLT Studio.
