Congrats on the launch! And thanks for helping the open-source ecosystem to thrive. I'm always happy to see open-source companies challenging the status quo. Open Source is very often the most reliable choice, and you contribute to spreading the word.

Thanks for the kind words. At Lago, we want to break the notion that billing is always a "buy or build" option. Billing can be so different between companies that it may require a custom setup, infrastructure, and model. Furthermore, the "buy" options available are often not scalable enough for large companies.

With our open source version of Lago, we offer: - Fair pricing: scale your billing as your company grows - Composability: build the pricing/billing you have in mind, without the limitations of vendors - Participative approach: contribute to the entire billing engine so other companies can benefit from it.
