I test and review AI tools for a living, and somewhere along the way I fell into a trap that’s become weirdly common: I went from paying for one premium subscription to paying for several. And once you’re juggling multiple AI tools, the monthly fees add up faster than you expect.
Because that’s how subscriptions work. You start with one. Add another. Justify a third because it’s “slightly better” at one specific thing. And suddenly your AI stack costs as much as a streaming bundle — except you’re not even sure you’re using half of what you’re paying for and want to cancel.
