Audit my subscriptions — 22 charges down to 5, saving about $100 a month

Karol says she asked her AI 'Hedwig' to audit her forgotten subscriptions. Screen recordings show a 'Subscription Before and After' dashboard dated Oct 11, 2026: recurring charges cut from 22 to 5, and monthly cost from $149.11+ to $58.73+ — about $90 a month saved — after which she lists the services she deliberately kept.
