Before you pay for Rocket Money, see what a free audit finds
Most people looking at Rocket Money just want to know what they're subscribed to and cancel the dead weight — that doesn't need a paid plan. Unlike Rocket Money's bill-negotiation concierge, Skycopia does it free and never takes a cut of what you save.

Run your free auditDo you even need a paid subscription app?
Run the free audit and one of two things happens. Either it turns out you just needed to see everything and cancel a few services — done, keep your $6–12/mo — or you discover you genuinely want more, like someone negotiating your cable and phone bills for you. That second job is what Rocket Money's paid concierge is actually good at, and Skycopia doesn't replicate it.
Either way, the audit costs nothing and takes about a minute: connect your bank read-only, get every recurring charge surfaced with a cancel playbook, and have each cancellation guarded so a merchant can't quietly re-bill you months later. You lose nothing by doing this step first.
How the two actually differ
They overlap less than you'd think: Skycopia is a free audit-and-cancel tool; Rocket Money is a paid concierge that negotiates and cancels for you.
| Feature | Skycopia | Rocket Money |
|---|---|---|
| Free subscription audit | Yes — full audit, no card | Free tier shows subscriptions; deeper features are paid |
| Finds recurring charges from your bank | Yes (Plaid, read-only) | Yes (bank connection) |
| Takes a cut of your savings | Never | Bill negotiation charges 35–60% of the first-year savings |
| Cancellation guidance | Step-by-step playbook for each service | Concierge cancels for you on paid tiers |
| Re-charge protection | Alerts if a cancelled service bills you again (Pro) | Monitoring on paid tiers |
| Price-hike & renewal alerts | Included (Pro) | On paid tiers |
| Shared household / couples | Yes — attributed decisions (Pro) | Single-user focused |
| Pricing | Free audit, no cut — Pro from $15/mo | "Pay what you want" $6–12/mo for premium (plus the cut above) |

Is Rocket Money worth it?
Rocket Money is a capable, well-established app (formerly Truebill) and its bill-negotiation concierge genuinely saves some people money. The trade-offs people flag: the useful features sit behind a paid tier, and bill negotiation takes a large cut (35–60%) of your first-year savings. The cheapest way to decide is to run a free audit first — if it turns out you mainly need to see and cancel a few subscriptions, you may not need a paid app at all.
Do I need Rocket Money if I use Skycopia?
Often not — but they're not mutually exclusive. Skycopia's free audit surfaces every recurring charge, forgotten trial, duplicate, and price hike, with the exact cancel steps for each, and you keep 100% of what you save. If after that you still want someone to negotiate your cable or phone bill down for you, Rocket Money's paid concierge does that and Skycopia doesn't. Many people find the free audit is all they needed.
What should I try before paying for Rocket Money?
Run a free subscription audit. Connect your bank (read-only through Plaid) and Skycopia shows your full recurring-charge picture in about a minute — no card required. You'll know exactly what you're paying for and what to cancel before deciding whether a paid subscription manager is worth $6–12/mo on top.
Where is Rocket Money the better choice?
If you specifically want someone to negotiate your cable, internet, or phone bills down on your behalf and you're comfortable paying a cut of the savings, Rocket Money's negotiation concierge is a real, hands-off service Skycopia doesn't replicate. Skycopia focuses on finding and cancelling subscriptions, not negotiating bills.
How much does Skycopia cost?
The audit is free — connect your bank and see everything Skycopia finds, no credit card. Pro ($15/month) adds Protection guarding, refund tracking, and the shared household. Insider ($25/month) unlocks everything in beta, including Sky AI chat. No cut of your savings, ever. See the full plan comparison for what's included at each tier.
Is Skycopia safe to connect to my bank?
Bank access is read-only through Plaid — the same connection used by apps like Venmo and Robinhood. Skycopia can see transactions to find subscriptions; it can't move money. Your transactions are never used to train AI, and there are no advertising or credit-offer partners looking at your data.
Start with the free step
Connect your bank read-only and Skycopia finds every subscription, forgotten trial, and price hike, with the cancel steps for each. Then decide if you still need a paid app. No card, no cut of your savings.
