How is Togai different?

We build for engineers

Most billing tools in the market are built for the finance teams. Togai is built for the engineering teams so that they do not have to worry about managing undifferentiated metering and rating systems for implementing usage based pricing.
Billable payments with setup and license fees with custom formula.

We are transparent

Togai is the only usage based billing platform that allows you to sign up and test the full functionality without any restrictions. We also take up requests from customers and incorporate them in our roadmap.

We ship extremely fast

You can check our changelog to understand we take this one seriously. We started building Togai in 2022, and Metronome had a 2 year head start. You can evaluate both the products to understand how we have not just matched up to Metronome but built a much more flexible, reliable and scalable platform in half the time.

Pricing

Our pricing consists of 2 variables – the volume of events ingested and the total invoice value.
We provide a fixed annual platform fee based on your estimates on the above 2 variables that includes a free usage tier for events and invoicing for your estimated values. When you cross that, an overage fee would be applicable. Our annual platform fee starts at $10,000 per year which comes with a free tier of 1 million events per month and up to $2.5 million invoiced value.
