UniBee

Subscription billing and recurring payments platform for SaaS and AI businesses.

Visit UniBee

UniBee is an open-source, gateway-agnostic subscription billing platform that automates recurring payments, usage metering, invoicing, dunning, and revenue analytics across multiple payment gateways. It addresses the limitations of gateway-locked billing tools by letting teams run billing on their own infrastructure or through a managed cloud deployment, with exportable data and no forced routing to a specific processor.

Core capabilities include subscription management, real-time usage metering for custom metrics, flexible pricing plans (flat-rate, tiered, volume-based, hybrid, one-time, and recurring), coupon management, automated invoice generation with tax handling, subscription lifecycle automation with dunning and retry logic, and revenue analytics covering MRR, ARR, churn, and customer lifetime value. Integrations include Stripe, PayPal, QuickBooks, Zapier, and others, with support for multi-currency billing.

UniBee is aimed at SaaS businesses and development teams that want control over their billing infrastructure. It is packaged as a free self-hosted open-source edition, a Cloud Starter plan for individuals or small teams, a Cloud Business plan for growing businesses, and a custom Advanced edition; cloud plans are billed monthly with a free trial, and admin seats are capped per plan.
