Overview

Autumn is a billing infrastructure platform built on top of Stripe, founded in 2024 and headquartered in San Francisco, California. It lets SaaS companies manage pricing plans, feature entitlements, and usage-based billing without building custom billing logic from scratch.

Rather than replacing Stripe, Autumn acts as a layer above it — Stripe still processes payments, while Autumn manages the pricing plan configuration, entitlement checks, and billing logic that would otherwise require custom engineering work.

Key Features

Autumn lets teams define pricing plans (seat-based, usage-based, tiered, or credit-based) through a dashboard and SDK, and handles plan upgrades/downgrades, proration, and usage tracking automatically via API.

Feature entitlement checks let applications query whether a customer has access to a feature or has hit a usage limit, without teams writing and maintaining that billing logic themselves.

Pricing

Autumn offers a free tier for getting started, with paid plans scaling based on usage or revenue processed through the platform for companies needing higher limits, priority support, or advanced features.
