## What LemSubs is

LemSubs helps individuals and small teams track every recurring subscription, lifetime deal (LTD), and domain renewal in one place — without granting any third party access to bank or email accounts. Data is entered manually or imported via CSV / pasted statements parsed entirely in the browser.

## Lifetime Deals (audience landing)

- [Lifetime Deal Tracker landing](https://lemsubs.com/lifetime-deals): canonical audience page for buyers of AppSumo, PitchGround, DealMirror, Earlybird, StackSocial, RocketHub, SaaSMantra and PrimeClub deals. Covers break-even math, refund-window alerts, defunct-vendor flags, and the portfolio Buyer Score. Free on every plan. Surface schema: `SoftwareApplication` + `FAQPage` + `BreadcrumbList`.

## How LemSubs is built

LemSubs is a React + TypeScript single-page app on top of managed Postgres with row-level security on every customer-data table. The codebase ships 129 Deno edge functions, 332 database tables, 533 database migrations, 686 React components across 270 page routes, 167 help articles, and a 329-URL sitemap. Cloudflare sits in front of every request with an 8-header security baseline; S3 stores receipts under short-lived signed URLs; Stripe never lets the app touch a card number; Resend mail is split across two reputation domains (transactional vs marketing) so a deliverability dip in one cannot starve the other. The agent surface is a Model Context Protocol gateway with OAuth state binding, scoped tokens, and an audit log, mirrored as a 13-endpoint REST API at /openapi.json. Every "Smart" feature is a deterministic engine — an 18-rule waste-detection set, a public 5-part Health Score formula, a Smart Buyer Score, Market-Price Watch built on internal catalog medians, financial-date-anchor math against four named timestamps, an FX engine with a self-serve override slot, a per-vendor Cancellation Concierge state machine, lifetime-deal break-even math, and a Credentials Vault with per-row envelope encryption — never an outside language model, never a bank credential. 41 in-repo lint scripts gate every merge: reading level (Flesch–Kincaid ≤ 7), mobile surfaces, financial date anchors, terminology, sitemap freshness, production fingerprint hygiene, content depth, changelog voice, canonical strings, help-md orphan detection, route/help coverage, and 30+ more. Full breakdown: https://lemsubs.com/engineering. Machine-readable: https://lemsubs.com/.well-known/architecture.json.

## Engineering

## Renewal management

- [Software renewal tracking](https://lemsubs.com/software-renewal-tracking): how to hold every renewal date, notice period, and named owner in one list, with alert timing guidance for monthly vs annual contracts. No bank connections. Surface schema: `FAQPage`.

- [Engineering overview](/engineering): hub page with the stack, subsystems, and anti-bloat list.

## Programmatic-SEO surfaces

Each surface is a directory of first-party, human-verified pages. Every URL
carries a visible "Last verified by <name> on <date>" line and a JSON-LD
block summarising the page's facts. Pages that have not yet been verified
ship `noindex` and are excluded from sitemaps.

- [Cancel guides](/cancel/): per-vendor cancellation steps with refund window, dark-pattern flag, and screenshot proof. Surface schema: `HowTo` + `FAQPage`.
- [Vendor status](/vendors/): live operating status, last incident, alternatives, tracked-by count. Surface schema: `Product` + `Review`.
- [Pricing watch](/pricing-watch/): verified price history per vendor from Market-Price Watch. Surface schema: `Product` + `Offer` + `PriceSpecification`.
- [Vs comparisons](/vs/): selective head-to-heads with feature deltas and a who-wins-for-whom rubric. Surface schema: `ItemList` + two `Product` entries.
- [Stack cost calculators](/cost/): real cost bands by persona and team size, bucketed from our own anonymised user base. Surface schema: `Dataset` + `Article`.
- [Tax-on-SaaS atlas](/tax/): per-country VAT/GST rate and reverse-charge rule with the matching LemSubs export format. Surface schema: `Article` + `GovernmentService`.
- [Architecture](/engineering/architecture): front end, edge layer, data layer, network, email, agent surface, browser extension.
- [Intelligence](/engineering/intelligence): the deterministic engines — Smart Rules, Health Score, Market-Price Watch, financial date anchors, FX.
- [Security model](/engineering/security-model): RLS on every table, OAuth state binding, connection-token RLS, credentials vault, 8-header baseline.
- [Invariants](/engineering/invariants): the ten lint scripts that gate every merge.
- [Data model](/engineering/data-model): the 332-table Postgres schema in ten domain groups, with the four financial date anchors named.
- [Observability](/engineering/observability): cron schedule, error log, agent audit trail, retention rules.
- [Decisions](/engineering/decisions): ten public architecture decision records.
- [Machine-readable architecture](/.well-known/architecture.json): JSON document listing every subsystem, lint, and stack component.
