Introducing Occurly: recurring revenue on one platform

Recurring revenue starts simple. A plan, a price, a card on file. Then usage-based add-ons arrive, a second currency, a finance team that needs clean numbers, and an engineering team that would rather not own a billing system.

Occurly brings the whole thing onto one platform: subscriptions, usage-based billing, invoicing, payments, dunning, entitlements and revenue analytics, all reading and writing the same platform.

Why one platform

The argument is not that fewer tools is inherently better. It is that a customer’s subscription, their metered usage, their invoice, their payment and the revenue you report from it are all statements about the same thing. When they live in separate systems, each system holds a copy, and copies drift.

Drift is what produces the work nobody plans for: the reconciliation before a close, the spreadsheet that becomes load-bearing, the quarter where the revenue number and the cash number tell different stories and someone has to explain which is right.

What we built

Occurly holds the whole customer on one platform. Subscriptions, usage, invoicing, payments, collections, dunning, entitlements and revenue analytics are views of that record rather than integrations around it. Change a plan mid-cycle and every surface agrees about what the customer owes, because there is only one place that answer lives.

It is multi-entity and multi-currency from the start, because retrofitting either onto a system that assumed one is among the more expensive migrations a finance team can be asked to sit through.

What comes next

We are writing about the operational side of recurring revenue: usage pricing that survives a close, multi-entity consolidation, recovery sequences, and migrations that do not miss a cycle. Less about us, more about the work.
