In their own words
GrowPanel
GrowPanel provides subscription analytics for SaaS businesses through web and API access. It reports real-time MRR, ARR, LTV, churn, and customer lifetime metrics, alongside recurring and one-time revenue, refunds, discounts, fees, taxes, and foreign exchange. Forecasts cover MRR and cashflow. Cohort analysis, trial tracking, conversion rates, retention trends, and cancellation comments help teams examine customer behavior. Billing data connections include Stripe, Chargebee, Recurly, Alunta, Google Sheets, and a custom API; other listed integrations include HubSpot, Slack, Microsoft Teams, n8n, Make, Zapier, webhooks, and Google Data Studio. GrowPanel AI answers questions about account data and can propose actions for approval. An MCP server connects compatible AI assistants to GrowPanel data. Billing connections have read-only access and cannot create or modify subscriptions or charge customers. The service offers a free plan and a 14-day trial. Paid plans start at $49/mo billed annually. GrowPanel says persistent customer data is stored in the EU and account data is deleted from production systems within 30 days after account deletion.
Submetrics
Submetrics is subscription analytics for indie founders, development agencies, and indie hackers, including SaaS products under $50K MRR. It tracks MRR, ARR, churn, customer lifetime value, expansion, and related unit-economics measures from billing data. The dashboard updates revenue metrics in real time as subscriptions start, expand, contract, or churn. Slack or email alerts can report cancellations, with reasons taken from Stripe metadata. Lifetime value can be segmented by plan, cohort, or acquisition channel, while retention is displayed in cohort heatmaps. The Pro plan adds AI revenue projections for three, six, and 12 months with confidence intervals. Stripe and RevenueCat integrations are live; Paddle is in beta, and three other connections are coming soon. Plans start at $19 a month, with a 14-day trial and no credit card required. Supported platforms are web, iOS, Android, and API.
