Startup Program From Moesif Improves Developer Journey

Interested in taking your product to the next stage of growth but have missing metrics? We understand that as a startup, companies are laser focused on getting their product out the door. Founding teams today don’t want to (or need to) create their own user management, billing, or other analytics tools. By forging partnerships with best-in-breed providers, startups can take advantage of these analytical tools without wasting engineering manpower to create in-house toolkits.

Best Practices for Usage-based Billing to Monetize APIs

API monetization is a great way to recoup your investment into your API programs. Without direct monetization, you’re dependent on other sources of capital to grow the program, such as other profit centers or venture capital. If you’re not directly monetizing your APIs, you could be leaving money on the table. This can be especially true if you don’t have any limits in place and lean on the honor system.

A simple way to implement usage-based API billing is finally here

Metered Billing has finally arrived in Moesif and we are super excited to be rolling out this latest feature. We have worked hard to deliver a smooth and simple way to monetize your APIs by allowing usage that is tracked in Moesif to be metered and billed by your favorite billing providers. Moesif can calculate and send usage data to a billing provider so your customers can be billed accurately, based on their usage.

Developer Experience Vs. User Experience

While they may seem similar at first glance, Developer Experience (DX) is not just “User Experience (UX) for developers”. Rather, DX is an extension of UX focused on users who build with technical languages and tooling. DX follows the same core principles of UX but extends it by recognizing that technical details and mechanical processes can be understood and utilized efficiently by a developer.
