As SaaS pricing gets more dynamic, billing systems are quietly becoming the biggest constraint on how fast companies can move.

If your pricing has turned into a maze of usage limits, entitlements, and exceptions, this post explains why, and how it’s quietly killing adoption, velocity, and sales.

AI Usage Management is the first real-time governance layer for AI-native products, giving companies control over AI spend as it happens, not after it breaks.

Buy the way your company already buys, and stop letting monetization slow product teams down. With Stigg now available on AWS Marketplace, you can simplify procurement, unify pricing and entitlements, and move faster without duplicating logic or fighting internal process.

If your billing vendor says they can simulate the “right” price for your AI product, they’re replaying the past and calling it strategy. Here’s why pricing is a human, adversarial system that ML models fundamentally can’t solve.

Pricing for AI products is no longer linear, and now your credit model doesn’t have to be either. Meet Custom Credit Consumption Formulas: a precise, flexible way to translate real product usage into accurate credit burn.

Recapping my packed Stripe Tour NYC talk: the future of AI monetization isn’t about perfect pricing—it’s about how fast you can change it.

We thought building AI credits would be simple. Turns out, we were building an entire economy. Here’s what we learned creating a credit system that powers AI monetization for modern SaaS.

Credits, without the billing migration. Stigg's Credits Suite is the first enterprise-grade platform that lets you launch AI and SaaS credit models fast, right on top of your existing billing stack.

HTTP 402 is a new, curated community for engineering and product leaders building the future of monetization infrastructure: pricing, billing, usage metering, entitlements, and beyond. If you’re shaping how SaaS gets paid, this is where your peers are.

AI is rewriting the rules of value, and with it, the way we price software. Traditional seat- and usage-based models can’t keep up, leaving companies to rethink how pricing should work in an AI-first world.

As AI agents reshape how software is consumed, traditional licensing models fall short. Enum Entitlements introduce structured, dynamic controls that pave the way for agent-ready monetization in the new era of software.

What started as a quick script to handle subscriptions has snowballed into a brittle, high-risk billing monolith that’s slowing your entire business. In this post, we unpack the hidden costs of building monetization in-house—and why modern, API-first platforms like Stigg give engineers the flexibility and control to escape the velocity tax.

As SaaS companies face mounting pressure to grow revenue, a new layer of infrastructure is emerging: the MonetizationOS. Learn how forward-thinking teams are replacing brittle billing systems with programmable, scalable platforms that turn monetization into a growth engine.
