For years, billing has been a bottleneck for innovation. Rigid pricing models, inflexible infrastructure, and the technical complexity of metering usage at scale have forced SaaS companies to either compromise on their go-to-market strategy or invest heavily in custom engineering solutions.

That changes today.

We’re thrilled to introduce Maxio Metering, the most flexible and scalable metering solution designed specifically for B2B SaaS companies. Whether you’re experimenting with usage-based pricing, value-based pricing, or hybrid models, Maxio Metering ensures you can track, measure, and bill for exactly what your customers consume–and the value they derive—without engineering headaches.

With Maxio Metering, you’re free to adapt your pricing strategy to match your business goals, not your system’s limitations. It’s the infrastructure you need to turn product usage into revenue—quickly, accurately, and at scale.

Metering and Adaptive Billing

At its core, metering is the process of tracking and measuring product usage. In traditional usage-based billing models, metering might be as simple as counting the number of API calls or GBs consumed, then converting that data into a bill.

But for today’s SaaS products—especially those building AI-powered features, multi-product platforms, or complex feature sets—simple usage counts aren’t enough. What you bill for isn’t always just how much customers use; it’s what they use, how they use it, and the real value they receive.

That’s where adaptive billing comes in.

Adaptive billing lets you price based on multiple factors at once—like which product features were used, which customer segment the user belongs to, where the usage happened, and how resource-intensive each event was. It gives you the flexibility to align your pricing with the actual value delivered, instead of just billing for volume.

Maxio Metering is what makes adaptive billing possible. It tracks multi-dimensional usage data in real time, giving you the flexibility to:

• Capture every event as it happens, with no batching delays.
• Track multiple attributes for every event—like product tier, geography, infrastructure cost, and feature type.
• Separate meters from your data pipeline—so you can change what you measure or how you price without rewriting your code.

In short, Maxio Metering gives you the power to turn product usage into smarter pricing—and smarter revenue.

How Maxio Metering Works

Maxio Metering provides a seamless way to track, process, and monetize product usage. Here’s what makes it powerful:

Real-Time Event Tracking 

Capture product usage data as it happens, not in delayed batch processes.

Multi-Attribute Rating 

Bill customers based on any combination of factors.

Flexible Metering 

Define metering rules that match your business model, from simple per-unit billing to complex tiered or threshold-based pricing.

Seamless Integration 

Works alongside your existing tech stack, so you can activate metering without a full system overhaul.

Automated Invoicing 

Convert metered usage into accurate, transparent invoices without manual intervention.

Why We Built Maxio Metering

SaaS companies are increasingly shifting away from static subscription models in favor of dynamic, consumption-driven pricing strategies. But not all usage-based billing is created equal.

Most billing systems can handle basic usage billing: tracking a single metric like API calls or storage usage and converting it into an invoice. But modern SaaS businesses need more than that. They need adaptive billing: a system that can process complex, multi-attribute data, evolve alongside their pricing strategy, and support dynamic business models without engineering bottlenecks.

Gone are the days of struggling with:

• Data fragmentation. Collecting and processing product usage data across different systems.
• Inflexible billing tools. Legacy systems that weren’t built for metered billing.
• Developer burden. Requiring extensive engineering resources just to make billing work.

Maxio Metering was built to remove these roadblocks. With real-time event tracking, multi-attribute rating, and powerful metering capabilities, you can go to market faster, iterate on pricing models without friction, and scale usage-based billing with confidence.

Why Maxio Metering Is Different

Maxio Metering makes adaptive billing possible, purpose-built to meet the needs of the key stakeholders responsible for pricing and billing decisions.

For Startup Founders

Maxio Metering is designed to remove friction from pricing innovation. Founders need to move fast, test business models, and avoid costly engineering distractions. With Maxio Metering, you can:

• Launch usage-based pricing without engineering bottlenecks.
• Quickly experiment with pricing models to find what works.
• Ensure predictable costs with built-in safeguards against overages.

For Product Managers

Product managers often define usage metrics, implement pricing strategies, and ensure billing aligns with product adoption. Maxio Metering supports:

• Seamless event tracking to align billing with the way customers actually use your product.
• Integrated pricing experimentation to test and refine usage models within your product roadmap.
• Flexibility to evolve pricing without disrupting existing customers.

For Engineers

Implementing and maintaining a custom billing infrastructure is a massive drain on resources. Maxio Metering helps engineers by:

• Eliminating the need for custom-built metering systems.
• Providing real-time event streaming without complex data pipelines.
• Ensuring easy integration with existing data infrastructure and financial systems.

For Finance and Accounting Teams

Usage-based billing only works if revenue is predictable and auditable. Finance teams need accuracy, transparency, and automation. Maxio Metering delivers:

• Unified usage tracking and billing, eliminating spreadsheet exports and sorting through contracts.
• Granular cost visibility to track usage and prevent billing surprises.
• Seamless reporting, giving you revenue, usage, and financial data all in one place.

By addressing these unique needs, Maxio Metering is not just another billing solution—it’s a platform that helps every stakeholder drive growth, streamline operations, and remove the pain points that have traditionally made usage-based pricing so difficult to implement.

The Future of Billing Starts Now

With Maxio Metering, SaaS companies can finally tap into the full potential of adaptive usage-based pricing—without the technical debt and operational headaches.Ready to see it in action? Get a demo today.
