Products that do what Potio – Launch your first Stripe monetization experiment in 15 minutes does
Hey HN folks, In my experience with SaaS, I've often seen pricing strategies get less attention than they deserve. Usually, they're based on basic market surveys, intuition, or just echoing what competitors are doing. However, effective pricing is crucial for business growth. Through my professional journey, I've realized the importance of a data-driven approach to pricing, though it's challenging, it can be incredibly beneficial. That's where Potio comes in. Potio is designed to help online businesses set up their first Stripe monetization experiment in just 15 minutes. We're not fully…

In late 2024, I had to set up a new Stripe account because I incorporated my company in a different country. Turns out it's not as simple as just changing the country in a dropdown, you have to start from scratch. I had hundreds of users and using Stripe's dashboard to add all of the products, prices, coupons and subscriptions manually would take ages. I contacted a couple of services that help with this kind of migration, but their quotes were way over my budget. My next option was to use Stripe's API, which is very powerful but also very complicated. I'm a designer who can code, but I…

Hi HN, we are Jevon, Blake and Isaac, we've been working on Tier for a little while ( http://github.com/tierrun/tier ) Tier is "Terraform for Stripe" but it goes further and gives you feature flag style access checks, and allows you to count/report usage which can be used for metered billing. When we started Tier, we knew that there was something interesting in the SaaS pricing and packaging space. Adjusting price is the single most effective lever a business can use to achieve product/market fit, and there's a strong correlation price nimbleness and market…

Hi there, So a buddy a couple of days ago came up with the idea for a new SaaS product regarding gpt and image generation. We did a quick MVP that barely works, it breaks almost 50% of the time but we still wanted to validate the idea before going all in. We have almost 1k followers on Twitter together. Did a quick post describing the idea with a stripe link in the comments with a 5$ value, no landing page, and no shipped product. In exchange, the buyers become beta users. Around 30 mins later we got our first sale next 30 mins another 5$ and so on. Do we consider the idea validated? The…

Thank you for taking some time to help me out! http://projectionable.herokuapp.com I just launched Projectionable at http://projectionable.herokuapp.com. My goal is to decrease the time it takes to get client approval for project estimates by making the estimates interactive for clients. I haven't set up Stripe yet (I'm setting up an LLC then I'll be on my way), and I'm trying to iron out the pricing strategy by the time I have that set up. Basically, I see three options: 1. Charge users to invite clients to a project. These are single transactions on a per project basis. 2. Offer monthly…

I'm obsessed with pricing page design and optimization. So I went ahead and made a collection of 200 B2B SaaS pricing pages so that other B2B founders can have an easy-to-use resource to go to for inspiration. Hope someone finds it useful!

Hey HN! I am a developer working on a startup doing lots of payment integration stuff with payment providers like Stripe. I built a tool to talk to Stripe data, just so that I can answer questions from our team. I turned that into analytics tool (sort of) to answer questions about MRR, churn, revenue etc. (https://www.dataraccoon.io/). There is a two minute demo video on the page if you want to see how it works, or you can use free trial without needing a credit card. I was wondering if you would use such a tool directly in Slack or prefer receiving messages about your metrics…

Hey HN, I've just begun my solopreneur journey. I've been a "serial starter" - often starting projects and never seeing them through, and I have finally finished my first project! Maybe this sentiment resonants with some of you, let me know in the comments below I built this tool as a simple no-risk method for turning more visitors into customers by A/B testing your sale promotions and automatically displaying the promotion with the highest conversion rate. Did you know that increasing your conversion rate by just half a percent can have a dramatic impact on your sales without needing…

We built StripeMeter, an open-source usage metering platform that plugs directly into Stripe. It solves the classic SaaS pain of “why is my bill higher than expected?” by giving both developers and customers real-time usage tracking with live cost projections. Why it matters: - Transparency: Customers see exactly what Stripe will bill them (within 0.5% parity). - Exactly-once guarantee: No double billing, ever. - Fast & scalable: Sub-minute freshness with Redis + Postgres counters. We’d love feedback from SaaS builders, especially if you’ve struggled with Stripe’s metered billing. Does this…

Hi HN, I'm Ben / Tiny Projects (I once posted here about buying 300 emoji domains from Kazakhstan…). For the past 3 years I've been solo bootstrapping PromptBase, an AI marketplace with 450k+ users. At the peak, I was burning $9,400/month in opaque Stripe Connect fees for seller payouts, so I built Zoneless to replace it: - GitHub: https://github.com/zonelessdev/zoneless - Website: https://zoneless.com Zoneless is a free, open-source (Apache 2.0) drop-in replacement for the payout part of Stripe Connect. It allows you to pay marketplace sellers…

Hi HN, I am a CTO/Founder usually stuck in "development hell" on long-term projects. To fix my perfectionism, I started a challenge on Jan 1st: Ship 12 startups in 12 months. This is Project #01: TierWise. The Problem: Most SaaS founders price for the US/EU market. Charging a flat $49/mo excludes huge segments of users in LATAM, India, or Southeast Asia where purchasing power is lower. Building a custom GeoIP/PPP logic for every side project is a distraction. The Solution: I built a drop-in JS widget that detects the visitor's country and calculates a discount based on…
