02 · Stripe Checkout + webhook sync

Stripe billing sync

Checkout creates the subscription, a self-contained HMAC webhook verifier keeps the local copy in lockstep, and metered overage is reported to Stripe Billing Meters so it lands on the next invoice by itself.

Upcoming invoice

AI generations overage (850 × $0.01) $8.50

Total $157.50

The overage line follows the meter above: every AI generation past the included 10,000 is a Stripe meter event.

Signatures are checked with the webhook secret, events are idempotent by id, and a replayed delivery is a no-op.

03 · Quota alerts

Quota alerts

Threshold alerts fire once per customer, per feature, per period. Pro deduplicates the crossing, so a customer bouncing around 80% gets one email, not forty.

  • 80% Email the customer
  • 95% Show the upgrade prompt
  • 100% Throttle on hard caps, bill overage on metered plans

04 · Historical rollups + CSV export

Historical rollups and CSV export

Live counters are ephemeral by design. Pro persists month and day rollups per customer and feature, so finance gets a table and you get a one-click usage.csv.

Filter by customer, feature and date range; the export streams straight from the rollup table, so it is the same numbers as the invoice.

05 · Reconciliation

Reconciliation

A background pass compares local counters against what Stripe has and repairs any drift, so invoices never quietly diverge from reality.

06 · Subscription-aligned billing periods

Subscription-aligned billing periods

Allowances reset on each customer's Stripe billing anchor, not on the first of the month. The period you meter is the period you invoice.

07 · LiveView components

LiveView components

Drop a usage panel into your own settings page. The components subscribe over PubSub and update in place as the counters move, the same live values the dashboard shows.

<AuroraMeter.Components.usage_panel org={@org} title="Usage this period">
