CredytNov 2025 · credyt.ai · ▲100Hey HN! I'm the founder of Credyt (https://credyt.ai). If you're running an AI product that burns $0.50+ per interaction, you need to bill customers as usage happens, not at the end of the month. Otherwise you're a bank for your customers, and you'll run out of money before they do. Why invoice-based billing doesn't work for AI: Most usage-based billing tools (Stripe Billing, Orb, etc.) were built for SaaS. They meter usage all month, then send an invoice. That works fine when your COGS is 5%. It's a disaster when you're paying your AI vendor upfront for every request and your…
StripeMeter – Open-Source Usage Metering for Stripe Billing2025 · github.com · ▲5We built StripeMeter, an open-source usage metering platform that plugs directly into Stripe.

We’d love feedback from SaaS builders, especially if you’ve struggled with Stripe’s metered billing. Does this…
