Launch HN: Lago (YC S21) – Open-source usage-based billing
I'm a cofounder at Lotus (https://github.com/uselotus/lotus).
First, congrats on the launch Lago. I've been very impressed with your ability to educate devs about the intricacies of billing and you are certainly pushing the entire space forward.
While you offer coupons and credit notes, there are features you don't have that we have prioritized and built, including, usage alerts, plan versioning, gauge metrics, custom sql etc. etc. Point being I think its unfair to say we are a subset of your product.
In addition, we have a 25+ year billing expert on our team who has been CTO of a startup processing $300 million a year.
Lastly, I don't think it's fair to make statements about our customers just because we haven't "announced" them yet.
Happy to chat more with anyone about our differences.

Lago is much closer the production ready however. Solid stand-alone tool already.
Tier like projects gives me hope to build for better embedded user experience and more control in the future.
