Everything that charges you automatically, in one place. Your phone subscriptions, your domains, your servers, your AI tools — Overhead brings them together and shows what's coming before it hits your card. FOUR WAYS TO ADD SOMETHING • Search a catalog of known services — pick a plan, done in two taps • Paste an IP or domain — Overhead looks up who owns it, whether it resolves, and whether it's still reachable • Share a screenshot of your subscriptions — Overhead reads it on your device and fills in the list for you • Add anything manually in a few seconds SEE WHAT'S COMING A month strip shows which days actually cost you money, so a surprise charge stops being a surprise. DECIDE, DON'T JUST TRACK Once a month, Overhead surfaces exactly what needs a decision — keep it or cancel it — and shows what you've saved over time. Reminders escalate as a charge gets close, and stop the moment you've already decided. GROUP INTO PROJECTS A domain, its server, and the services tied to it — grouped together, so archiving one shows you everything that still quietly costs money. MULTIPLE CURRENCIES, NEVER MIXED UP Track subscriptions in USD, VND, or anything else — totals are always grouped by currency, never silently added together. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE No account, no sign-up, no server. Everything is stored locally. Export a backup any time. WHAT OVERHEAD CANNOT DO Apple doesn't allow any app to read your App Store subscriptions automatically. That's why Overhead reads a screenshot instead. It's a snapshot, not a live sync, and Overhead reminds you to refresh it. Privacy: https://xubisoft.github.io/overhead-legal/privacy.html
