Worldclass AI billing, out of the box.

Credit rollovers

Unused credits roll into the next period on the rules you set, or expire on a schedule.

Expiry & priority

Expiry windows and priority consumption, so promotional or oldest credits burn down first.

Overage & top-ups

Self-serve top-ups and metered overage past the included amount, priced how you like.

Seat & agent budgets

Isolated budgets per seat or autonomous agent, each drawn from a shared company pool.

Concurrency-safe holds

Reserve, commit, release. Two agents drawing the same balance can't double-spend it.

Plan versioning

Version plans, migrate customers, and run trials, without an engineering ticket each time.

Real-time event log

Every grant, deduction, and check streamed live, for fast implementation and debugging.

ASC 606 rev rec

Compliant, credit-based revenue recognition, tracked as an append-only ledger and export-ready.

Any pricing model

Seats, usage, credits, tiers, overage, and hybrids, combined and changed without a rebuild.

Support sales-led, self-serve, or both.

The Schematic app

Built for the AI era
