Micro-internship brief ≈6h across 2 days — audit + real fixno-codeIndia edition

Find the subscription leaks in your household

Recharges, OTT plans, app subscriptions, auto-renewing memberships — every household leaks money monthly without noticing. Audit your family’s full recurring-spend stack, put AI on the cost-per-use maths — then verify it — and actually fix one leak.

The work brief

  1. 01Inventory everything recurring (with family help): mobile recharges, OTT, YouTube/Spotify, cloud storage, gym, tuition apps, newspaper. Check payment histories for forgotten auto-renewals.
  2. 02Build the table: service, who uses it, monthly cost, yearly cost, actual usage (be honest — check screen time / last-watched).
  3. 03Analyse with AI: paste the anonymised table and ask for the yearly total, the worst cost-per-use, and overlaps (3 OTTs, one watcher?) — then recheck its maths before anyone cancels anything.
  4. 04Fix one real leak: cancel, downgrade, switch to a shared/annual plan. Screenshot the change and compute the yearly saving.

What you’ll produce

4 deliverables

Submission standard

Submit the full audit as CSV, the analysis, and evidence of the leak you actually fixed. Include your AI workflow: your analysis prompts and the numbers you had to correct. Your fix screenshot must show your own account/app interface with a date, and the yearly saving must match the cost of that service in your CSV.

  • The full audit as CSV: service, user, monthly, yearly, real usage

    Paste comma-separated data with one header row and one record per line. Use consistent column names and remove private information.

    CSV dataRequired
  • The analysis: yearly total, worst cost-per-use, overlaps found

    Written responseRequired
  • Screenshot of the leak you actually fixed (cancellation/downgrade confirmation)

    The cancellation/downgrade confirmation must show your own account/app interface, the service name, and a date (redact personal data). The service must appear in your CSV.

    Image uploadRequired
  • The fix explained: what you changed, the yearly saving, and how the family reacted

    Written responseRequired

You’ll complete these inside your private workspace.

How your work is evaluated

The passing benchmark is 70/100.

Complete audit

29%

The inventory is genuinely complete, with honest usage data.

Really fixed

29%

A real change was made, evidenced by the confirmation.

Analysis sharpness

14%

Cost-per-use and overlap findings are computed, not guessed.

Real fix, own account

29%

The fix screenshot shows the student's own account/app UI with a date, the cancelled/downgraded service appears in the CSV, and the claimed yearly saving matches that row. A generic screenshot or a 'saving' not derivable from the audit = fail.

How we grade your AI usage

30% of your score

Using AI is the point — it’s the skill this certificate proves. You’ll answer three short questions about how you used it: what you asked, what was wrong with its first answer, and what you changed. Specific, honest answers score high. “I pasted the brief and submitted the answer” scores near zero.
