Pricing

Monthly billing, USD, cancel anytime. Every checkout is a secure Stripe payment link.

Pre-launch: Abacus is pre-launch — the hosted API is not deployed yet. The provisioning flow (checkout → tenant + API key → claim page) is built and tested and activates at the hosted launch.

Free tier: the $0 tier needs no payment method. Self-serve signup is built into the API and opens on the claim page with the hosted launch; until then, the quickstart in the docs runs the open core locally.
Growth overage is $1.50 per additional 1M events — flat and stated upfront, never a percentage of your revenue. Starter pauses at its limit; upgrade to continue.
Refunds: 14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. Checkout pages are hosted by Stripe; business branding on checkout is being finalized before launch.
