Meter every call.
Know what actually happened.
Track usage. Enforce limits. Bill automatically. All with three lines of code.
Every endpoint. Every user. Every request. Tracked automatically.
No maintenance. No setup. Ever.
Metering that understands execution, not just traffic.
Most metering tools count what passed through a proxy. UsageFlow counts what your API actually did. That's the difference between billing estimates and billing truth.
All the control. None of the complexity.
Your API surface documents itself as traffic hits it. No scanning. No configuration.
Add a few lines of code — no servers, no sidecars, no infrastructure changes.
Usage-based billing for any platform. No logs. No reconciliation.
Every request counted with precision. From AI endpoints to high-value operations.
Plug into Stripe, Paddle, or any billing system. Token, credit, or custom models. Nothing to reconcile.
No DevOps pipelines or infrastructure overhead. Sub-millisecond latency.
Endpoints appear as traffic hits them. Policies apply automatically. Nothing to maintain.
Integrate in minutes. Works with Node.js, Python, and Golang.
Three lines. That's all it takes to add full API visibility and control to your Express application.
No configuration files. No complex setup. Just initialize, connect, and watch your entire API surface reveal itself automatically.
import { ExpressUsageFlowAPI } from '@usageflow/express';
const usageFlow = new ExpressUsageFlowAPI('YOUR_API_KEY')
app.use(usageFlow.createMiddleware())
UsageFlow meters AI usage by model, enforces per-user quotas, and syncs to your billing platform — so you can charge for expensive AI calls automatically.
Track AI API calls in real-time.
Enforce rate limits and quotas effortlessly.
Monetize usage as it occurs — every token, every request.
See which models, endpoints, and users drive real value.
Drop in UsageFlow. Track, control, monetize your AI API in minutes.
Gateways manage traffic. UsageFlow understands behavior.
