The problem

Seats leak margin on
your heaviest users.

Two customers on the same plan can cost you a hundred times apart. Usage pricing fixes that, and then it becomes a project: meters, credit ledgers, packs, invoices, and a migration nobody owns.

Any model

Every feature,
its own price.

Charge for the base plan, seats, and AI on different terms in the same plan. Try a new model on one feature without touching the rest.

Credits and packs

Prepaid credits, included grants, top-ups, rollover, and expiry. One balance across every feature that draws on it.

Usage, seats, and tiers

Per call, per token, or per seat, with volume tiers and soft limits that bill the overage instead of blocking.

Bring customers over

Hide the old plan, keep current customers on it, and move each one when you're ready.

Ledger to invoice

Limitr keeps
the books.

Every call lands in the ledger with its price and its cost, and becomes an invoice with a line for every feature. Collect through Stripe, or bill contract customers manually.

Under the hood

The grid is
one policy file.

Every cell you change is a line in a policy that runs in your app, in Limitr's open-source engine. Engineers can edit the code view, or have a coding agent write it.
