//WHAT IS WALLNUT?
Wallnut is a subscription intelligence app with a built-in password vault. Not a traditional password manager, not your Google or Instagram credentials. Specifically the logins for every subscription you're paying for. Because if you're going to audit what you're spending, you should be able to get into the thing in one tap.
The core idea is simple: most people have no idea how much they're spending on subscriptions monthly. And the ones who do know the number have no idea if any of it is actually worth it.
Wallnut answers both questions. In one app.
//THE PROBLEM
You're paying for 14 things this month. You remember signing up for maybe 9 of them. Three free trials ended quietly. One app you haven't opened since February. One you use every single day and have never once thought about cancelling. Every subscription tracker shows you what you're spending. None of them tell you what's worth it.
That's the gap. And it's a big one.
//THE SOLUTION
Wallnut tracks every subscription cost, renewal date, category, usage score and stores the password alongside it. One card per subscription. Everything in one place.
The value score is the real differentiator. Netflix this month: ₹649. Hours watched: 4. Worth it? Wallnut does the math so you don't have to pretend you will.
Set a monthly budget. Get flagged before you go over. Get reminded 3 days before anything renews. Decide consciously, not by default.
The password vault isn't the product. It's the glue that makes the whole thing frictionless.
//THE FORTUNE COOKIE MOMENT
Crack it open. Find your truth.
Every time you open Wallnut, something small and honest surfaces. Not a dashboard screaming at you. Not a finance report. Just "Gym app. ₹999/month. Last session logged: 47 days ago."
That's the product philosophy. One truth at a time. What you do with it is yours.

//THE LOOPHOLES
The breach alert flow shown in the UI, the actual data integration behind it isn't designed yet. In a real product this connects to a breach database. The UX of receiving a breach alert, the notification, the urgency, the guided fix is a critical flow that hasn't been touched.
Emergency access is listed as a feature. How it actually works without creating a security hole is a genuinely hard problem that's parked for a later phase.
Family and shared vaults, couples share Netflix, teams share tools. Single-user right now. Shared vault architecture is a whole separate design problem.
