Trusted by Mistral AI, PayPal, Groq, and Synthesia with over 10,300 GitHub stars and Y Combinator backing, Lago is the open-source billing engine that handles usage-based, subscription-based, and hybrid pricing models through a single API-first platform — replacing the need to build custom billing logic or depend on opaque SaaS pricing infrastructure. Real-time event ingestion via ClickHouse processes billable events with deduplication and multiple aggregation methods including count, sum, unique count, max, and weighted sum, while graduated pricing tiers, package-based billing, and percentage-based fees model any pricing strategy from simple subscriptions to complex marketplace commission structures. Automated invoice generation calculates charges according to configurable billing cycles with grace periods, proration for mid-cycle changes, and credit note issuance for refunds and adjustments. Prepaid credits enable pay-in-advance models where customers purchase credit blocks and draw down as usage accumulates, while entitlements tie feature access directly to billing plans for automated provisioning and de-provisioning. Payment orchestration integrates natively with Stripe, Adyen, and GoCardless with automatic retry logic, dunning workflows for failed payments, and multi-gateway routing. Revenue analytics provide cross-stream visibility into MRR, usage trends, churn, and revenue drivers through dedicated API endpoints. The customer portal embeds into your application for self-service invoice access and usage monitoring. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Meteroid delivers the billing infrastructure that SaaS companies need when Stripe Billing gets too rigid and building in-house gets too expensive. The Rust backend ingests usage events via REST API or Kafka with deduplication by event ID and customer ID, storing time-series data in ClickHouse for sub-second aggregation queries across billions of events. Billable metrics transform raw events — API calls, compute time, tokens, storage, transactions — into accurate charges using configurable aggregation functions, dimensions, and filters without pre-aggregation. The plan builder supports any pricing structure: flat rate, per-unit, tiered graduated, tiered volume, package, and hybrid combinations with multiple price components per plan. Versioned plans enable pricing changes without affecting existing subscribers through grandfathering, while experiments let you A/B test pricing with controlled rollouts. Subscription management handles the full lifecycle — creation, upgrades, downgrades, mid-cycle proration, scheduled changes, and cancellation with configurable grace periods. The TypeScript frontend provides a complete web dashboard for managing customers, plans, subscriptions, invoices, and revenue analytics with MRR tracking, churn analysis, and cohort insights. Automated invoice generation handles complex scenarios including usage-based line items, credits, discounts, and tax calculations with PDF rendering. Stripe Connect integration enables payment collection directly through the platform.
