• Show HN: Sale – A live cash register for your Stripe account

  This is great marketing, nice job. Have you ever read Traction[0]? They call this engineering-as-marketing[1]. I built an open-source version[3] of Baremetrics when something similar when I was considering working on a loan marketplace for SaaS companies[4]. It did ok! I'd consider open-sourcing the tool since it's not your main business.

  1. Drill down to customer level detail for metrics

  2. Ability to inspect the data pipeline and calculations from raw data to final metric

  3. Direct SQL access to the modeled data

  I've been hacking on Pulse for a few months and it's now ready for beta. Pulse is:

  1. Transparent - Easily drill down and see how metrics are calculated at the customer level

  2. Free & Open source - It's easy to self host, but there's also a free hosted version here: https://pulse.trypaper.io/.

  3. Extensible - Have some weird edge case you need to exclude? You can update your data model with a little SQL and you always have direct SQL access to your data.

  4. Push first - Metrics can be pushed to Slack, Sheets, and email so you don't need to check yet another dashboard. The integrations work out of the box, no janky Zapier workflows are needed.
