Usage & Consumption Billing
Usage-based pricing shifts the hard problem from pricing strategy to billing infrastructure: you need accurate metering, defensible rating logic, and invoices customers can reconcile against their own usage data. We build that infrastructure so usage billing doesn't become a support burden.
Who It's For
- API, infrastructure, and platform businesses billing on consumption
- Companies moving from flat-rate to usage-based pricing
- Teams facing billing disputes from unclear usage data
