Know what each renewal needs next. Renuvia brings upcoming commitments, decision deadlines and the evidence behind them into one clear place. MAKE THE NEXT DECISION • Review items that need action and those coming up in your Renewal Radar. • See an exact “Decide by” date only when your contract provides a cancellation deadline or notice period. If it is unknown, Renuvia says so instead of guessing. • Choose to keep, cancel, review, negotiate, switch or be reminded later. • Open the provider, record your decision and attach evidence when you complete an action. TRACK MORE THAN SUBSCRIPTIONS Keep an eye on digital subscriptions, free trials, memberships, insurance, warranties, domains, hosting, contracts, licences, vehicle services and other renewals. ADD DETAILS YOUR WAY Add an item manually, even when you are offline, or capture a screenshot, invoice, PDF or barcode. On-device OCR can suggest a company, date, amount and URL with confidence and source evidence for you to review. You confirm extracted details before saving. SEE UPCOMING COMMITMENTS Review monthly equivalents, annual committed costs and known commitments across the next 30, 60 and 90 days. Renuvia helps with renewal decisions; it is not a budgeting app. COUNT COMPLETED OUTCOMES Savings are recorded only after you mark a cancellation or switch complete before the commitment deadline. A plan to act is not counted as money saved. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Quick Add works without an account, network, OCR or AI. Documents stay in app-controlled storage. Telemetry never includes raw OCR text, screenshots, documents, names, dates, identifiers or financial values. Optional private iCloud sync and JSON/CSV export are available.
