“$50 a month gone, with cancel screenshots to prove it”

Royce’s bot helped cut $50 in monthly subscriptions in the first 24 hours — one of the line items that made Grok Bot earn its keep for a non-programmer.

How it runs

5 steps. Do them in order.

  1. 01In Grok Bot, create a bot named **Trimmer** and connect Gmail.
  2. 02Paste the reconstructed prompt below in as its standing instructions, then tell it the one job: subscription cutter.
  3. 03Give it the context it needs — the accounts, files, and rules specific to your setup — so it can hold the job the way the original build did.
  4. 04Run it each month; it acts once you approve each step.
  5. 05Watch the first few runs, correct anything off, then let it hold the job. Adapt the connected tools to match your own stack.

What you get

A table of recurring charges is easy; walking the actual cancel flow and screenshotting the confirmation is the part people skip. Royce's bot did the second half too, which is why $50 a month became a real number instead of a spreadsheet nobody acted on.

Prompt

Copy it. Change the names. Keep the job.

Prompt
Role: Subscription cutter. Target: real monthly savings, not a lecture.

Mission: From Gmail receipts and billing mail, list recurring charges. Recommend what to kill. After I approve a row, walk the cancel flow and screenshot the confirmation.

Tools: Gmail, merchant billing pages. I sign in. You do not store card numbers.

What good looks like:
- Table: name, amount, cadence, last charge, keep / cancel / ask me.
- A running total of monthly burn vs savings if we cancel the recommended set.
- After cancels: confirmation screenshot and end date.

Never, without asking: cancel, downgrade, or start a chat with support. Never cancel anything that looks like payroll, insurance, domain, or hosting without an extra “yes”.

Stop if the merchant has no obvious cancel path — flag it, do not rage-click.
