Today, we're excited to announce the public release of Schematic - a product designed to make pricing and packaging for modern B2B SaaS companies dead simple -, and $4.8M in capital led by MHS Capital with participation from NextView, Active Capital, Atlanta Ventures, and Ritual Capital, along with founders from companies such as CrowdStrike, LaunchDarkly, Salesloft, and more.
Schematic's platform allows businesses to outsource pricing and packaging with drop-in components for a complete purchasing experience. Developers are able to quickly launch new packaging models, enable their teams with powerful internal dashboards, and deliver consumer-grade purchasing experiences to every end customer.
Stripe was a step function that unlocked a wave of new opportunities within B2B SaaS by allowing companies to implement a way to integrate payments with just a few lines of code. As they’ve grown and B2B SaaS has matured, it’s clear that while it’s very good at payments and checkout, it’s not enough by itself to support modern applications. Product and Engineering teams still end up wasting a lot of time and money making Stripe and other billing tools work for their products and businesses, including implementing:
Feature access / entitlements / metering
Internal tools for their team to report on and manage customers
UX in the application for plan management and upsells
Integrations with other business systems to automate workflow
We need more than just checkout.
At Schematic, we believe that building pricing, packaging, and billing shouldn't require reinventing the wheel. That's why we've built a solution that supercharges Stripe and allows companies to easily outsource it just like you would authentication, from feature delivery to customer experience, with just a few lines of code.
Stripe is great for getting started with payments, but modern companies need more than just a checkout page.
Our platform integrates seamlessly with Stripe to facilitate payments while adding powerful capabilities on top of it such as embeddable UI components, internal admin dashboards, feature flags to power entitlements, and usage-based metering. This means you can manage your entire pricing and packaging surface area — from how you charge your customers to how they experience your product — without the need for brittle, homegrown solutions that tightly couple pricing and packaging logic into application code.
Schematic extends Stripe’s functionality, enabling you to:
Embed Powerful UI Components: Add drop-in components beyond basic checkout, such as customer portals, pricing tables, and usage meters. Power internal workflows for sales and account management.
Control Access with Feature Flags: Manage which customers have access to which features without needing to touch your application code.
Usage-Based Metering: Easily track customer usage and bill accordingly, supporting modern, flexible pricing models.
Manage Plans with Ease: Update plans, support custom configuration, and handle exceptions — all with minimal code changes.
Get a 360-Degree View of Your Customers: Combine account, usage, and billing data into a single, easy-to-access profile, giving your team the insights they need.
At Schematic, we’re committed to providing a consumer-grade purchasing experience for both your internal teams and your customers. Our embeddable UI components are designed to deliver the ability to manage subscriptions, view usage, and update plans in your app and within internal tools — all without requiring heavy lifting to build from scratch or maintain.
The demand for flexible, customer-centric pricing and packaging options has never been higher. Legacy tools handle checkout but beyond that you’re on your own to build homegrown solutions to support your business.
With Schematic, you get a complete suite of tools designed to integrate seamlessly with the frameworks and systems you're already using. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to scale, Schematic provides everything you need for end-to-end pricing and packaging without the overhead of maintaining custom-built solutions.
While we’re publicly launching today, we’re just getting started. Our focus will be on improving our library of embeddable UI components, making it even easier for teams to quickly deploy Schematic within their stack, and to extend it for their unique circumstances.
We’re excited to be launching Schematic to the world. If you’re ready, we’d love for you to sign up here. We’re letting folks in on a rolling basis so we can welcome everyone personally.
Let’s go!
