I've been interested in a tool like this for a while. I currently have tried whisprflow and aqua voice but wanted to use my API key and store more context locally. How does all the data get stored and how can I access it?

Ah yes. Interestingly most of our users don't set this up in the early stage. But for the ones that do, they need webhooks for this. We have a single webhook that fires whenever a customer's state is updated (eg subscription start

We have react hooks so we try and make the majority of the integration lift on the frontend. One of our contributors is helping us launch a python SDK soon too !

Adapty looks cool! Kind of similar to Revenuecat? I think the offering is similar -- both manage entitlements and paywalls. And while we do have a proportion of users that use us for mobile apps we're pretty focused on SaaS / web.

We are pretty tightly coupled with Auth. Part of setting it up is resolving your internal customer (or org) ID from your auth JWT and passing it into an autumnHandler function, which then makes calls to the Autumn API. This means you don&#x

Updating credit card: - We have an openBillingPortal() function that when called, will redirect a user to the Stripe billing portal where they can update their card info. If it's a valid card, we allow the change and keep the customer

Nice to hear that word is starting to spread :) and happy to help when you come to integrate!

I think that's a fault of ours with our landing page and messaging. We can definitely do a better job here. Almost everyone that has used us after using Lago can tell a big difference with the products. The main reason that people use

Ah yes, we're still entirely built on Stripe, so all your chargeback management, tax handling, subscriptions and payments are still handled by them! We are not a Stripe replacement. When our users integrate Autumn, they don't need

Thank you! We try and take case of most of these bugs and edge cases. I think the ones that have been most useful are: 1. Race conditions. There are some weird conditions to handle around if a user makes it back to your app post-payment bef

This is absolutely where we want to end up within the next year, especially as we move upmarket. Enterprises love having redundancy between payment providers to use as leverage for lower fees and there are several companies founded purely a

People compare us a lot because they're also another open source YC company that does billing. So definitely some similarities! I think in practise though we serve a very different segment. Lago is great for high-throughput event meter

Hey! Yes it will, as long as you can process the payment with Stripe, you can use us. I know Stripe has discounts for non-profits. However, Autumn is really only useful when combined with our permissions / entitlement management. So if

Appreciate the kind words. We have a long way to go before it's a solved problem, but making headway for early stage companies with typical SaaS pricing :)

Seems plausible but my experience with EU bureaucracy doesn't give me a lot of hope that this is worthwhile for startups

by ayushrodrigues 1y ago
True, but the EU startup ecosystem is small and shared. Only so many places to raise capital from.
