In their own words
Stigg
Stigg is a usage runtime for engineering teams managing access, usage, and spending controls for AI products. It combines credits, entitlements, metering, and governance. The credits engine includes wallets, ledgers, burn-downs, expiry rules, and priority consumption; entitlement rules can be changed outside the codebase without a deployment.
Stigg says its metering captures tokens, inference calls, and agent actions at throughput of 1M+ events per second, while entitlement checks have p99 latency under 10ms. Teams can set per-user, per-team, and per-agent budget caps enforced at call time. It layers on existing billing providers with two-way sync, naming Stripe and Zuora as examples. Deployment options include a hosted Cloud API, a customer's cloud environment, and a bring-your-own-database option. A free Build plan includes 10,000 managed entities and 5M monthly usage events. Pro costs $399 a month billed annually or $499 a month billed monthly.
