Show HN: StripeMeter โ Open-Source Usage Metering for Stripe Billing
5 points - yesterday at 7:00 PM
We built StripeMeter, an open-source usage metering platform that plugs directly into Stripe. It solves the classic SaaS pain of โwhy is my bill higher than expected?โ 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.
Weโd love feedback from SaaS builders, especially if youโve struggled with Stripeโs metered billing. Does this solve a real pain for you? What would you need before trusting it in production?
