Goal this weekend: get 20 people through one free run and learn if the verdict feels trustworthy.
If you’ve shipped something similar, what broke first — trust, distribution, or retention?
Hey, I ran a quick AI visibility check for KeepOrCancel and asked ChatGPT “best subscription cancellation management tools in 2026.”
KeepOrCancel didn’t come up. It listed Churnkey, Chargebee Retention, ProsperStack, Paddle Retain and Raaft, but they’re actually solving a different problem. They’re B2B tools helping companies reduce customer churn, whereas KeepOrCancel is for consumers deciding whether they should cancel their own subscriptions.
A more relevant search would probably be something like “app to decide which subscriptions to cancel” or “subscription audit tool for consumers.” That feels much closer to what KeepOrCancel is actually doing and I’d expect a pretty different and probably much smaller set of results.
Happy to run that narrower check and see what’s actually out there if useful.
The 20 free runs should tell you more than whether people use it: the interesting signal is whether they act on the verdict. Are you planning to distinguish “this recommendation feels right” from “I’d actually change or cancel a subscription because of it”?
Thanks for your comment. Yep that is a great idea - we do need to figure out a way to get that conversion to action tracked- maybe through a follow up email or a button in the app. Might add this if we get enough traction to warrant a V2
That action-level signal is the important next step. If you’re open to it, what’s the best email to reach you on?
