Developer-first Cloud Metering and Usage-Based Pricing and Billing Platform built from the ground up to enable modern Usage-Based Pricing with real-time metering, and on-demand invoicing and billing.
Hey ProductHunt 👋
Puneet and Lior here, founders of Amberflo.io 🤝
www.amberflo.iohttps://docs.amberflo.io/docs
We started Amberflo with a mission to help transition the world to a more fair and transparent business model - in the form of Usage-Based Pricing (UBP).
We spent a lot of time at Amazon Web Services (AWS) building and scaling Usage-Based cloud services with on-demand metered pricing, invoicing and billing and saw first-hand the spectacular benefits of leading with a Usage-Based business model. It drives the highest levels of revenue and product adoption, while reducing friction and improving overall organizational efficiency. And offering users a business model that is fully aligned with value and outcome.
We also experienced first-hand the challenges of designing, building, maintaining and scaling a platform that needed to consistently deliver accurate metering and real-time usage-based pricing and billing.
💡 Amberflo is the platform we wished we had!
Building the necessary infrastructure and tooling to enable accurate Metering and Usage-Based Pricing is a heavy lift, and requires a long and drawn out product roadmap and features. We feel companies can greatly benefit from having a reliable, scalable, fully-managed, and cost-effective platform delivered by Amberflo versus spending prized core engineering and product resources on building it in-house.
👋 How is Amberflo different?
We lead with Metering, not as a feature of pricing and billing but as a decoupled, stand alone platform product, that while integrated with our Billing Cloud operates and scales independently. This allows product and engineering teams to holistically and comprehensively instrument their technology stack, irrespective of customer facing pricing vectors.

We were introduced to the Amberflo team by our lead investor at the start of our commercialization implementation. From our first meeting to our most recent (this past Tuesday) - Amberflo team has done a tremendous amount for us in term of saving our development time and serves as our unified platform for tracking usage, rewards, custom credit, and billing; seamlessly plugs between our application and blockchain layer.
One thing I'm constantly impressed by is the speed of delivery and feature development lead by Lior and his team. We needed a few custom additions to be done and the team never hesitated to jump on a call right away to support us.
We are about to launch our commercialization plan on Amberflo and super excited about having a strong product and team behind it.
Amberflo hit the mark for us. We were off and running on day 1. We now have metered nearly every part of our platform and are on our way to get a better understanding or where our customers spend their time. Billing is next.
This is product is really great for PLG (product-led growth) companies who seek to understand the unit of economics of their software. It makes it easier to meter and analyze to cost of each of our clients.
