Before and after

Retire the spreadsheet.

It tracked five boxes, four currencies and one nervous breakdown. Cratelog does the same job without the formulas, the stale tabs and the missed deadlines. Keep scrolling.

Never miss a skip window

Every deadline worked out from your own renewal date, with a nudge before it closes, not after.

A subscription in Cratelog: September's box charges on the sixteenth with three days left to skip, and the policy below it showing three of four skips used this year.

Spending, per currency

Every charge you recorded, by month or across the year, in any of seven currencies.

The Spending tab of Cratelog stats: September's recorded total, how it compares with August, and the four charges behind it listed by box.

Know what is still on its way

Shipped, waiting and wished for, so a box in transit never turns into a duplicate.

The Incoming screen in Cratelog: two preorders in transit with their expected dates, one waiting to ship, and the start of a twelve-book wishlist.
The shelf it becomes

It's not just money. Track the reading too.

Boxes become books. Log what arrived and what you actually read: pages, status, the month it landed. Watch the shelf grow month by month.

The Library in Cratelog: sixty-one books owned, twenty-one of them arranged spine-out on a shelf the reader laid out themselves.
Your own copies

Photograph it once. Turn it in your hand.

Up to seven shots of the copy you actually own: sprayed edges, endpapers, the signed page. They become a solid you can turn, and a shelf you arrange yourself. Not a stock cover pulled from a database.

Four photographs of one copy in Cratelog, swiped to the front cover, two of four. The same copy built into a solid block that turns, front board and sprayed edge visible at once.
The rest of it

Everything else it keeps track of.

Planner

Every box you'll be charged for this month in one list. Decide one and the question closes.

Reveals

The theme first, then the book. Early guesses stay hidden until you say otherwise.

Sales and drops

Upcoming, live and ended, sorted by region and early access.

Waitlists

How long Cratelog members actually waited for an invite, from their own records.

Series and artists

Editions roll up into the series they belong to, and the artists who made them.

Skip statistics

A year of decisions per box, what each policy still allows, what your skips avoided.

Unconfirmed charges

The ones you never ticked off, gathered in one place instead of three.

Questions

Before you ask.

Is Cratelog free?

Yes, completely. Every feature (deadlines, spending, your shelf) is free, and it's staying free. No trial, no paywall, no premium tier waiting behind it.

Can I ask for a feature?

Yes, on the feedback board. Post an idea or upvote one that is already there, no account needed. What gets built next is decided by what is at the top of that list.

Does Cratelog skip boxes for me?

No. Cratelog reminds you and routes you to the seller; the skip itself happens on the seller's site, under the seller's terms. Record the outcome afterwards and your allowance and countdown update.

How does Cratelog know my deadlines and prices?

From what you record, plus a maintained catalogue of skip rules and pricing across 76 subscription services. Cratelog never has access to your account with the seller: every skip and every payment stays in your control.

Is my data safe?

Cratelog never sells your data, runs no ads and does no cross-app tracking. Export everything you've recorded any time from Settings, and delete your account whenever you like.

Which subscription services are supported?

76 services and counting, spanning book, box and genre subscriptions. Don't see yours? Submit it from the add screen and it's reviewed within a day or two.
