About Lotus
Lotus is an open-core pricing and billing engine. We enable API companies to automate their custom usage-based pricing for any metric. Rather than guess on how to charge their customers, Lotus provides companies with powerful new tools from metering to invoicing to testing new pricing. Our self-hosted software is free on GitHub, and we offer a paid cloud version and enterprise tier for support.
