Guides Metronome usage-based billing integration decisions — event ingestion (single and batch, idempotency, billable metrics), contract design (rate cards, overrides, dimensional pricing, products), invoicing lifecycle (grace periods, finalization, Stripe sync), credit and commit management (prepaid, postpaid, thresholds, auto-recharge), and Stripe integration (arrears invoicing, tax providers, line item limits). Use when building, modifying, or reviewing any Metronome integration — including ingesting usage events, creating customers, contracts, or rate cards, designing billable metric group keys, managing credits and commits, configuring invoicing, syncing invoices with Stripe Billing, billing AI applications for token usage, setting up self-serve (PLG) pricing, reviewing customer health, commit burn, portfolios, or renewals, or migrating from Stripe Billing Meters to Metronome.
