How Orlo Tracks Price Changes on Your Renewals

You get your car insurance renewal through the post. The number looks about right, so you pay it. But was it actually more than last year? By how much? And is that normal or are you being quietly overcharged?

Most people have no idea whether their recurring costs are going up or down because they never compare. The old document is buried in a drawer or lost in an email chain. Orlo changes this by tracking your prices automatically.

How Price Tracking Works

When you upload or import a document, Orlo looks at the provider name and document type. If it finds an existing document from the same provider and type (for example, last year's Aviva car insurance), it links them together into a group. Then it compares the amounts.

On the document detail page, you will see a price change card showing the difference. Something like "Up 15.6% from last year" with the exact amounts side by side. Over time, as you upload more renewals, Orlo builds a price history for each provider.

What Gets Tracked

Price tracking works across all document types that have amounts and recur over time:

• Insurance policies (home, car, pet, travel, landlord)
• Utility bills (electricity, gas, water, broadband)
• Subscriptions and memberships
• Contracts (phone, tenancy, service agreements)
• Invoices from regular suppliers

Proactive Alerts

Orlo does not just show the price change. It tells you about it. When the AI detects a price increase on a renewal, it creates a proactive alert that gets delivered by email and push notification. You will know your insurance went up before you have even opened the letter.

The Household Dashboard

All your price changes are collected on the Household dashboard. One screen showing every cost that went up or down, your total monthly outgoings, and a breakdown by category. It takes 10 seconds to scan and you know exactly where your money is going.

The people who save the most money are the ones who notice the increases early and shop around before auto-renewal kicks in. Orlo makes that effortless.
