Autumn

What it is for

Autumn is a hosted (and open-source) Stripe billing-control desk: you open Plans, and Free is $0. Use it when the job is plans, entitlements, and balances you start at $0, not when you need a $20 chat seat.

What makes it unique: the cover is the official Autumn Plans editor (Pro v1, $20 / month, 100 Messages per month, unsaved-changes bar) from the docs still — not Autumn’s own pricing card. The $20 on the cover is the plan you model for your customers. Autumn bills a Free $0 / Pro $375 tile plus $5 / 1M requests after the Pro include.

Key features

• Plans — a price you version and attach (cover still; docs; setup). One plan. Cover Pro v1, Plan settings, and Add Feature sit here.
• Features — a boolean or metered entitlement you put on a plan (docs). A feature, not a plan. Cover “100 Messages per month” is ops of this.
• Customers — a billable account you open and inspect (docs; app). A customer, not a feature. Products / invoices / events tabs sit here.
• Balances — a granted or prepaid allowance you edit per customer (docs; concepts). A balance, not a customer. Dashboard “Available Features” edits land here.
• Invoices — a Stripe document Autumn finalizes from plan + usage (customers docs; lakehouse invoices). An invoice, not a balance.

The SDK / CLI / MCP is install. check / track are API of Features / Balances. Stripe / RevenueCat / Vercel tiles are the processor. Subscriptions are ops of Plans. Autumn’s $375 tile is the meter.

Who it's for

Best fit: teams who will stay on Free at $0 (8K monthly billing volume, 10,000 customers, 10M API requests) while they open a first Plans editor, then buy Pro at $375 / month when volume or the data-warehouse tile matters.

Pricing

Verified 2026-10-23 (Asia/Shanghai) from useautumn.com/pricing. Tiles print Free $0 / month / Pro $375 / month / Scale Custom.

• Free — $0 / month. 8K monthly billing volume. 10,000 customers and entities. 10M API requests included. CLI and MCP. Community support.

Confirm checkout; taxes follow your location.

Limitations / costs

• Free is 8K monthly billing volume and 10M API requests. Crossing either meter is Pro at $375 / month, then $5 / 1M after 20M.
• Autumn sits on Stripe. You still pay Stripe. Autumn does not replace the processor.
• A billing-control desk, not an invoice host you self-run for cards. For Lago’s self-host $0 invoice desk see Lago.

Alternatives

• Lago — open-source usage billing when you want Lago’s customer invoice overview, not Autumn’s Stripe control plane.
• Polar — merchant-of-record when you want Polar’s $0 / 1% tiles, not entitlements on your Stripe account.
• Kinde — auth-plus-billing when the “plan” is a Kinde Billing tile, not Autumn Plans.
