Introducing Smart Entry: The Fastest Way to Build Your Manual Dashboard
The speed of AI, with the privacy and control of our Manual-First promise.
At SubHound, we are unapologetic about our Manual-First philosophy. We believe the deliberate, one-time act of building your own financial dashboard is the most powerful path to true control and peace of mind.
But we also listen. We know the biggest hurdle to achieving that state of calm is finding the time for that initial 15-minute setup. What if we could dramatically shorten that setup time without sacrificing a single bit of your control or privacy?
Today, we're introducing the answer. Meet Smart Entry.
What Is Smart Entry?
Smart Entry is an optional, AI-assisted tool designed to make populating your SubHound dashboard almost effortless.
The process is incredibly simple. When you receive a new subscription confirmation or a monthly receipt, you don't need to manually type it in:
- Find a receipt or invoice email from a recurring service (e.g., from Netflix, your web host, your car insurance).
- Forward that email to an address we provide you in the dashboard.
Reminder
That's it.
Our AI gets to work, reading the text in the email to identify the service name, the price, and the next renewal date, creating a new entry for you automatically. We'll send you an email as soon as it's ready on your dashboard.
Smart Entry is a powerful new tool, and we're just getting started. To get the best results with the current version, here are a few tips:
- Forward the Original Email: The AI works best when it can see the full, original email from the service (e.g., the "Welcome to Netflix" or "Your Adobe Invoice" email).
- To Clarify, It's All About the Text: Our AI is trained to read the text in the body of your email. At the moment, it can't read information from attachments like PDFs, images, or screenshots.
What's Next? This is just the beginning. We're already working on training our AI to read PDF invoices and other attachments in a future update!
The Best of Both Worlds
With Smart Entry, you get:
- Speed: Go from zero to a complete dashboard in the time it takes to forward a few emails.
- Accuracy: The system pulls the exact data from the body text receipt, reducing the chance of typos.
- Privacy: You are not linking your bank account. You are forwarding individual emails you choose, maintaining 100% of your privacy.
- Control: You have the final say on every single item. No surprises.
Smart Entry is our answer to the question: "How can we honour our user's time while respecting their intelligence and control?" It's the accelerator that gets you to a state of calm, faster.
