Metricneed documentation

Metricneed connects your payment providers and reconciles them into one dashboard — MRR, net revenue, customers and product breakdowns, in a single place.

What is Metricneed?

If you sell through more than one payment provider, each of them gives you a dashboard that only tells part of the story. Metricneed reads your revenue from every provider you connect and merges it into a single, consistent view — so your MRR, net revenue, customer count and per-product breakdowns finally mean the same thing everywhere.

There's no SDK to install and no checkout to change. You paste a read-only API key once, and Metricneed pulls your history through the provider's API.

Who it's for

Founders and finance-minded operators running a SaaS or digital product across several billing platforms who want one trustworthy revenue number instead of a spreadsheet stitched together by hand.

Supported providers

You can connect any combination of the following. The same product sold across several providers can be grouped so it rolls up into a single revenue line.

  • Creem — API key (creem_…)
  • Stripe — secret or restricted read key (sk_live_… / sk_test_…)
  • Polar — organization access token (polar_oat_…)
  • Lemon Squeezy — API key
  • RevenueCat — V2 secret key + Project ID
  • Gumroad — access token

What you get

  • Unified revenue — every provider's sales in one chart and one MRR figure.
  • Net, not gross — taxes and refunds already deducted.
  • Cross-provider product grouping — the same product everywhere as a single line.
  • Live updates — provider webhooks push new sales, subscriptions and refunds in real time (Pro).
