Automated Runbox Renewal Notice Tracking

Every morning, WebRun opens Runbox, finds new renewal and subscription notice emails, checks Gmail in case the same notice landed there too, and logs each one to an Airtable base with its vendor, amount, and due date so nothing renews or lapses unnoticed.

In short

How do I keep track of renewal notices that arrive in Runbox?

WebRun checks Runbox every morning for renewal and subscription notice emails, cross checks Gmail so the same notice is never logged twice, and adds a record to Airtable with the vendor, amount, and due date. This keeps every open renewal in one place so nothing lapses without warning.

  • Renewal notices get logged the same morning they arrive
  • Duplicate notices across two inboxes are caught automatically
  • Every open renewal is tracked in one Airtable base

Questions, answered

Does it renew or cancel anything on its own?

No. WebRun only reads renewal notice emails and logs them. Renewing, canceling, or paying for anything stays a decision you make yourself.

Why check Gmail as well as Runbox?

Some renewal notices get sent to more than one inbox. Checking both stops the same renewal from being logged twice.

How does it recognize a renewal notice?

It looks for common signals like the words renewal, subscription, or expires alongside a date and amount in the email.
