🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A browser extension that alerts users to the total cost and billing cycle before they confirm a subscription purchase.
  2. A third-party subscription management dashboard that tracks renewal dates and sends proactive alerts for upcoming annual charges.
  3. A standardized 'subscription cooling-off' policy template that advocates for a 14-day refund window for all digital service annual plans.
