Show HN: Lotus – open-source pricing engine

14 points by mikaeln 3 years ago · 1 comment · 1 min read

Hey HN!

We discovered that no one innovates on pricing because every billing software is inflexible. Excited to share our progress with Lotus entering beta (full MIT license, https://github.com/uselotus/lotus).

New features: * backtest and run analysis comparing multiple plans

* version pricing plans like you version code

* Meter and aggregate usage flexibly with custom SQL

* billing for usage-based pricing, hybrid, bespoke contracts

* generate invoice pdfs or integrate with Stripe, Braintree, Netsuite, Salesforce

* webhooks to send alerts when usage thresholds are high or build robust invoicing integrations

* analyze margin and cost per customer

All feedback is appreciated! If the project is especially relevant to you, reach out on our website.
