Short answer

How can my AI manage Google Play subscriptions?

Your AI acts as a direct interface for your Google Play Developer account. It can look up specific purchases, issue refunds, cancel active plans, or move a billing date forward. You get a direct way to resolve billing issues without opening the Play Console manually.

Subscription outcomes

Where billing requests land.

The AI handles the heavy lifting for these four billing scenarios.

STATUS

Verify active purchases

The AI checks the current state of a user's subscription. You'll know exactly what they've bought and when it expires.

REFUND

Process money back

The AI triggers a refund for a specific purchase. This settles disputes or accidental buys immediately.

CANCEL

Stop recurring billing

The AI terminates a subscription plan. This ensures the user isn't charged for the next cycle.

MANUAL

Human review needed

If a user disputes a charge that doesn't match their history, you'll need to step in. The AI flags these discrepancies for you.

The workflow

What your AI does when a billing request arrives.

The AI translates your natural language instructions into specific API calls to Google Play.

  1. Identify the user

    The AI looks up the specific purchase details using the user's account information.

    get_subscription_purchase

  2. Resolve the dispute

    If a user asks for their money back, the AI executes the refund command.

    refund_subscription

  3. Manage retention

    The AI can move a billing date to a later time if a user asks for more time to use the service.

    defer_subscription

  4. End the service

    The AI stops the subscription to prevent future charges.

    cancel_subscription
