Lago

★ 8k

Usage-based billing engine for metering, subscriptions, invoicing, and revenue analytics.

Lago does the job of Stripe Billing, self-hosted. It is AGPL-licensed, so a hosted fork has to publish its changes, and setting it up is an afternoon, not a weekend. Stripe Billing bills $50+ for it. 8k stars on GitHub.
