USE CASES

If you meter it, we bill it.

BillAI handles any usage-based billing model — across AI, APIs, infrastructure, and beyond. From event ingestion to revenue recognition.

AI Inference & LLM Platforms

Challenge

Token-based pricing across multiple models. Different rates for input vs. output tokens. Volume discounts that tier across model families. Prepaid credit consumption with real-time balance tracking. Threshold billing to prevent fraud and runaway costs.

BillAI Solution

The full enterprise sales cycle in one system: quote custom token pricing, contract with commitment terms, auto-create subscription, meter every token, bill accurately, recognize revenue under ASC 606. No separate CPQ tool, no manual subscription setup, no spreadsheet RevRec.

Per-token (input/output), tiered by volume, prepaid credits, minimum commitments, multi-model matrix pricing.

API Platforms & Developer Tools

Challenge

API call metering with tiered pricing that scales with usage. Free tier management, usage caps, and automatic overage billing. Real-time dashboards that your developers can embed for their end users.

BillAI Solution

Sub-second event ingestion, tiered pricing with automatic free-tier handling, spend caps, smart dunning to recover failed payments without losing customers, and a customer-facing usage portal.

Per-API-call tiered, free tier + overage, rate-limited plans, bandwidth-based pricing.

SaaS & Hybrid Models

Challenge

Subscription plus usage, seat plus consumption, feature-based tiers with usage-based add-ons. BillAI handles hybrid models natively — no workarounds, no duct tape.

BillAI Solution

Combine any subscription structure with any usage-based pricing in a single plan. Revenue recognition handles the complexity automatically — deferred revenue from annual contracts, usage-based revenue recognized as consumed, blended models where both coexist. Your finance team gets clean reports without manual journal entries.

Seat + usage hybrid, subscription + overage, feature-gated tiers, consumption credits.

Logistics, Delivery & Transactions

Challenge

Per-delivery pricing with zone-based rates. Volume discounts that kick in automatically. Surcharges for expedited service. Multi-dimensional pricing where cost depends on distance, weight, speed, and destination.

BillAI Solution

BillAI handles the matrix without custom code. Flexible event schemas that handle multi-dimension pricing rules, real-time reconciliation, and transparent invoices customers trust.

Per-transaction, zone-based matrix, volume discounts, surcharges, weight-based pricing.

Data Platforms & Analytics

Challenge

Query-based pricing, storage plus compute metering, data transfer billing. Multiple consumption axes that need to be tracked and billed independently.

BillAI Solution

BillAI meters each dimension separately and combines them into clean, understandable invoices. Spend controls prevent surprise bills, and real-time dashboards give customers visibility.

Query-based, storage + compute, data transfer, multi-axis metering.

Any pricing model. One platform.

No matter how you charge, BillAI handles it — and lets you switch models without engineering work.

Flat Rate / Per-Unit

Tiered / Graduated Pricing

Different rates at different usage levels. Automatic tier progression.

Volume Discounts

Lower per-unit rates as usage increases. Incentivize growth.
