What is Baremetrics?
Baremetrics is a SaaS revenue analytics platform that connects to Stripe, Braintree, or Recurly and provides real-time metrics — MRR, ARR, churn rate, LTV, ARPU, trial conversion — in a clean dashboard. Founders, operators, and investors use Baremetrics to understand subscription health, identify churn patterns, and model revenue growth beyond what Stripe Dashboard natively provides. The platform's Recover feature automates failed payment recovery with dunning sequences, and Smart Forecasting projects MRR growth based on historical trends. Baremetrics also offers a public metrics page feature used by transparency-first companies. Best suited for SaaS products with 50+ paying customers where cohort analysis and churn visibility become essential. Pricing starts at $108/month for products under $10K MRR.

Pros & Cons
What works
- Real-time MRR, churn, LTV, and ARPU dashboards beyond Stripe's native reporting
- Recover feature automates failed payment dunning — recovers churned revenue passively
- Public metrics pages for transparency-first SaaS founders
- Smart Forecasting models MRR growth scenarios with historical data
Watch out for
- Pricier entry at $108/month — less justified before 50+ paying customers
- Stripe Dashboard covers most metrics for very early-stage SaaS adequately
- Multi-processor support requires higher plan tiers
