Why Licenzy

You don't want to build this yourself.

The pain is not charging a card. The pain is everything around it: webhooks, entitlements, access decisions, and billing edge cases leaking into product code.

Stripe handles payments. You still have to handle everything after the payment succeeds.

Without Licenzy

Billing logic spreads fast.

With Licenzy

The runtime surface stays simple.

Webhook state centralized

One integration surface instead of Stripe billing logic spread across services.

Synced entitlement event

Licenzy processes Stripe events and keeps entitlement state in sync.

How It Works

From checkout to access in minutes.

The shortest path is simple: define what you sell, start checkout, let Licenzy grant entitlement, then check access in your product.

Define what you sell

Products, AI credits, time passes, usage packs, and plans stay mapped to the runtime surface.

Runtime Example

Your backend only needs a few runtime calls.

A simple access check says more than a generic SDK abstraction. This is the kind of request your backend actually makes.

allowed
Runtime access checkTypeScript
const response = await fetch("https://api.licenzy.app/v1/access/check", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: "Bearer lz_test_***",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    subject_ref: "user_123",
  }),
});

const result = await response.json();

if (!result.allowed) {
  throw new Error("Access denied.");
}
Use cases

Built for product teams monetizing software.

For teams that want billing in Stripe and product access logic in a cleaner runtime layer.

Run multiple apps or runtime workspaces under one account with isolated projects.

SaaS subscriptions

Ship paid plans without rebuilding subscription state, entitlement checks and billing edge cases in every protected surface.

AI credits and usage

Sell AI credits for generation limits, API usage and compute usage, then safely consume units after the real work completes.

API monetization

Support developer products where checkout, access checks and customer entitlement state have to stay in sync.

Start free and ship the billing layer faster.

Use the runtime API instead of rebuilding subscriptions, credits, access checks, and webhook handling yourself.
