We track them.

Returns. Manufacturer warranties. Credit card extensions. Store coverage extensions you didn't know existed. Plans you bought and forgot. Five layers of protection mapped automatically, expiration reminders included.

Why I built this

Stories from my own receipts.

Before I built HeresNext, I lost money on stuff I shouldn't have. Then I won some back when I knew what to ask for. Four real situations from my own purchases - two losses, two wins.

Loss

$250, month 25 of a 24-month warranty

I owned a Garmin watch I loved. Took it ocean swimming once and it drowned. I called Garmin. They were sympathetic, but the warranty had ended a few weeks earlier. What I didn't know: if the credit card I'd bought it on had added another 12 months of warranty, I never checked. By the time I learned, that claim window had also passed.

Lesson:Most premium credit cards add 12 to 24 months on top of the manufacturer warranty. You have to know which card paid, and you have to file before that window closes too.

Mixed

$250, partial goodwill, then no luck

A robot vacuum stopped working under warranty. The manufacturer fixed it, swapped the battery as a courtesy, and shipped it back. A year later it stopped working for good, well outside any coverage. Goodwill repair is real, but it's not a guarantee, and I never checked whether the credit card I bought it on would have extended things.

Lesson:Manufacturer goodwill exists. So do limits. Knowing the actual coverage windows means you don't bank on goodwill that may not show up next time.

Win

$700 back, year 4 of a robot vacuum

Different robot vacuum. Different store. After almost four years of daily use, it stopped charging. I brought it back to Costco. They refunded the full purchase price, plus the sales tax I'd paid. No protection plan, no extended warranty, just Costco's standard return policy doing exactly what it's supposed to do.

Lesson:Some retailers honor returns far past "normal." If you know the policy by retailer, you know which purchases have a long tail.

Win

$50, one day past the return window

An item from Amazon I'd been meaning to send back. Realized at day 31, one past the 30-day return window. Asked anyway. They took it. I got the refund.

Lesson:Knowing the rule lets you ask the question. Not knowing means you don't even try.

“Two of these went my way. Two didn't. The pattern: in every case, knowing what coverage existed mattered more than what kind of product I'd bought. HeresNext exists to make that knowledge easier to use.”

What we track

Five protections on every receipt. We map them all.

The coverage exists. Most of it is invisible. We make it visible.

Manufacturer warranty

The basic coverage that came in the box. Receipt scanning extracts the dates. We remind you before it ends.

Retailer return window

Amazon's 30 days. Target's 90. REI's 1-year satisfaction promise. We track each retailer's policy by category.

Credit card extensions

Most premium cards add 1 to 2 years of warranty. Tell us which cards you have. We map your card's warranty benefits to your purchases automatically.

Retailer perks

Costco's free 2-year extension. Best Buy Elite member bonuses. Apple's 14-day grace window on most purchases. Auto-applied where eligible.

Third-party plans

AppleCare+, Asurion, SquareTrade, Geek Squad. The plan you bought and forgot, tracked alongside everything else.

The payoff

One question. Plain answer.

Once your purchases and cards are tracked, ask "am I covered for this thing that just broke?" and get a direct answer: yes or no, with the exact policy and the claim path. No more digging through email or warranty PDFs.

Coverage analysis runs across all five layers. When two or three of them apply to the same purchase, we show you the layer whose window closes first. That's where you act.

Sample output

Active layers:

Next step:First window to close is Apr 15, 2027 - file with Costco first if needed.

Coverage estimates are based on publicly available card-benefits guides. We're continuously expanding the list of credit cards we support and refreshing our coverage data when issuers update their benefits — we do our best, but may occasionally fall behind. Always verify with your card issuer before filing a claim.

Tracking is the foundation. Answering "am I covered?" is what makes the tracking worth doing.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself.

1
Photograph or upload the receipt
Receipt scanning extracts the product, retailer, date, and price in seconds. Confirm or edit. Manual entry also works.
2
Five layers, mapped automatically
We identify the manufacturer warranty, return window, credit card extension, retailer perks, and any third-party plan. You see the full picture.
3
Reminded before each expiration
Email reminders before any window closes. Pro tier adds push notifications and a custom schedule. You know what's next — and you decide what to do.
