Entitlements, metering, and teams for Stripe powered by Planship
Hi everyone! I’m Trent. My co-founder, Pawel, and I are currently bootstrapping Planship by way of a previous exit (AppThwack -> AWS Device Farm). What’s Planship? Planship [1] provides guardrails and tooling for SaaS plan packaging, dimensions, entitlements, metering, enterprise onboarding/provisioning, upsell logic, experimentation, and other related tasks. Planship allows for the creation of levers (AKA pricing dimensions) and specific lever values (“Entitlements”), which are then grouped together within plans (AKA packages, tiers, Stripe “products”, etc.) that customers and teams…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi everyone! I’m Trent. My co-founder, Pawel, and I are currently bootstrapping Planship by way of a previous exit (AppThwack -> AWS Device Farm). What’s Planship? Planship [1] provides guardrails and tooling for SaaS plan packaging, dimensions, entitlements, metering, enterprise onboarding/provisioning, upsell logic, experimentation, and other related tasks. Planship allows for the creation of levers (AKA pricing dimensions) and specific lever values (“Entitlements”), which are then grouped together within plans (AKA packages, tiers, Stripe “products”, etc.) that customers and teams subscribe to. Entitlements can be feature-based, usage-based, seat-based, or any combination of models. Basically, we separate pricing logic from product code, making it super easy to provision customers and iterate and optimize pricing and packaging within SaaS apps. We’ve built similar, more limited solutions multiple times in our careers and while necessary, they’ve always been an ongoing distraction. Stripe Integration Planship is payment-service-provider agnostic, but most of the companies we work with use Stripe, either directly or indirectly. With the Planship app for Stripe, it’s now possible to use Planship to manage levers and entitlements and view customer entitlements from within the Stripe dashboard. Also, Planship automatically syncs with your Stripe products, customers, and subscriptions so you can easily consume entitlements within your products. The Planship app for Stripe is available in the Stripe marketplace [2] along with a getting started guide [3]. Product Integration We offer SDKs [4] for languages like Python, JS, and Java and frameworks like React/Next.js and Vue/Nuxt so entitlements can be checked on the frontend for tasks like visually gating features, displaying upsell prompts, and so on while reporting usage, performing entitlement enforcement, and managing customers and subscriptions on the backend. On the frontend, we keep entitlements up to date automatically with WebSockets. Wrapping up Happy to answer any questions about Planship, Stripe integration, pricing optimization, or even the process of publishing an app in the Stripe marketplace. Thanks!

Hey HN! Christine and Steven here. As a PM and engineer, we’ve both evaluated and purchased a lot of software. One of the biggest frustrations was figuring out how much it would cost us without having to go through the sales process. When we did have a quote, we had no idea if we were getting a good deal or ripped off. We built a site where you can see what other companies are actually paying for SaaS and enterprise software. Buyers contribute prices via quotes, pricing proposals, and other documentation to ensure quality. We unlocked Talkdesk for Show HN users so that you can use the…
