Open-source, self-hosted metering you control.

Chargebee pitch
Ship product instead of running billing infrastructure.
Why Chargebee wins
- Supported, not self-hosted — Chargebee is a managed platform with SLAs and support — no billing engine for your team to operate and maintain.
- Full lifecycle, not just metering — Subscriptions, entitlements, rev-rec and retention out of the box, beyond open-source metering.
- Scale without rebuilds — Change pricing models as you grow without re-engineering your own billing code.
Verdict
Lago hands you the engine; Chargebee hands you the whole car, supported.
