Announcing our $10M Seed Round led by @Accel alongside incredible angels 💫 It's never been easier to build & ship software. But it's also never been harder to monetize it. We’re building the open-source monetization platform to empower future one-developer unicorns. How? 🧵

Monetization vs. Billing Platform. Billing is a crucial part of your customer relationship, but only part of it. We aim to bridge the gap between product analytics, CRM, and billing to provide a comprehensive platform for developers to scale their startups.

Usage-based on Autopilot. Automatic consumption ingestion for OpenAI, Anthropic, Vercel AI SDK to S3 and a lot more innovative features to come. We’re setting out to make usage-based and agentic payments a delight for developers and their customers.

Zero Boilerplate. We obsess over reducing the lines of code in your codebase that aren't unique to your business, from automating common SaaS entitlements like license keys and usage-based credits to condensing integrations down to just four lines of code.

Zero Operations. Grow globally without being held back by international sales tax, compliance, fraud, or chargeback protection – leave it to us as your merchant of record.

We’re proud that thousands of developers already rely on Polar since launching v1.0 in September 2024, growing their revenue an impressive 120%+ month-over-month on average over the past six months. But we’re just getting started.
