About
We're building BillBird for the people drowning in the subscription economy.
A small team making sense of the mess between your inboxes and your bank account.

About me
I'm Marty. I built BillBird because I needed it. Before this I [one or two relevant sentences — what you did before, what you know about the problem].
I live in [city] and you can reach me at [email] if you want to talk about anything — feature requests, bugs, your own subscription nightmare.
I read every email.
Origin
It started with a $49 charge I didn't recognise.
I was reviewing my card statement and saw a subscription I'd completely forgotten about. I logged into my email and found three more like it. Then I checked my second email, and found another four.
By the end of an hour, I'd discovered I was paying $230/month for tools I'd either stopped using or didn't remember signing up for.
The maddening part wasn't the money. It was that there was no tool that could have caught this for me. Bank apps showed the charges but couldn't tell me what they were. Spreadsheets needed me to maintain them — and I clearly couldn't. The "subscription trackers" I tried wanted access to my bank account and still missed half my subscriptions because they were spread across five different email addresses.
So I built BillBird.
Context
The subscription economy didn't ask permission. It just arrived.
Twenty years ago, you bought software once. Today you rent it — every category, every tool, every month, forever. A new AI tool launches every six minutes and most of us are paying for at least one we forgot about.
The systems that should help us track this — banks, spreadsheets, willpower — were built for a world that doesn't exist anymore.
BillBird is built for the world we actually live in: where you have multiple inboxes, multiple cards, multiple identities, and a subscription stack that grows whether you mean it to or not.
Where we are
We're early. That's the best part.
BillBird is small, and that lets us move fast and listen carefully. If something feels broken, tell us. If you have an idea, tell us.
If you're another solo builder paying for too many AI tools, you're exactly who we built this for.
