👋  Hey Product Hunt! I’m Adam, founder of Kable. We’re stoked to be launching on Product Hunt and excited to have you check it out! 🔵 Why Kable? API products make our lives easier as developers, enabling us to build cool new applications without reinventing wheels. But API companies are forced to rebuild and piece together much of the infrastructure that allows them to operate. Usage data infrastructure, billing and invoicing systems, stakeholder- and customer-facing dashboards, contract management systems… So much overhead distracts from core product development that makes an API company great. 🟢 What is Kable? Kable is the all-in-one toolkit for API companies. ✔️ Usage Data Infrastructure: Track all of your key business metrics without building any infrastructure in-house. ✔️ Flexible Pricing Models: Create plans with flat, tiered, or usage-based pricing. Include subscription fees, minimum commitments, discounts, pilots, and free trials with no code. ✔️ Powerful Customer-facing Dashboards: Build a rich developer experience by embedding Kable dashboards in your customer portal. ✔️ Simple Contract Management: Self-serve customers and enterprise contracts alike are simple to create and easy to manage. ✔️ Threshold Alerting: Notify customers when their consumption approaches or exceeds a plan quota. ✔️ Real-time Revenue: See revenue accrue in real-time as customer API usage grows. ✔️ Automated Invoicing and Collections: Kable integrates with Stripe and QuickBooks, so your end-to-end revenue operations are covered. 🔥 Implement Kable in under an hour with just a few lines of code. Sign up now and try it out! We built Kable to make it easy for API developers — small teams and growing enterprises alike — to build great products with infrastructure that works at any scale with just a few lines of code. Special thanks to @mwseibel for hunting us, and to @ericpsimon @alex_orr and the rest of the team for helping us get to where we are today. We’d love to hear what you think — let us know in the comments below!

Looking forward to checking it out! Curious how easy it is to integrate Quickbooks in both directions - sending invoices from Kable to Quickbooks but also getting manually-generated invoice info from Quickbooks back into Kable.
Adam Sommer

Hey @marc_lebovitz! Plugging Quickbooks into Kable is super easy -- just a few clicks to authorize the connection. When configured, we push Kable invoices into Quickbooks, but we don't sync manually-generated Quickbooks invoices back into Kable. I'd love to hear more about your use-case here, though! Perhaps it's something we'll add to our roadmap.
Marc Lebovitz
@asommer12 Our outsourced finance team uses QBO and only wants to deal with that. While many of our invoices can go through Kable automatically, some must be manually created, which is up to the finance team in their QBO environment. If we use Kable, those will somehow have to be updated into the Kable dataset.

@marc_lebovitz that makes sense to me -- we'll have a look into it!
