What is Paygent? | Paygent Documentation

Paygent is billing infrastructure for AI products.

If you sell AI agents, copilots, voice assistants, or API-backed automation, you face a problem traditional billing tools weren’t built for: cost and value are driven by usage, not seats alone. Token counts change every release. Voice calls mix LLM, STT, and telephony costs. Enterprise deals need setup fees, credit packs, and custom rates — all on one invoice.

Paygent solves this end to end: track what your AI does, price it flexibly, and invoice automatically.

The problem Paygent solves

Without usage-aware billing	With Paygent
Spreadsheets to reconcile API costs vs customer charges	Real-time usage → revenue in one system
One flat subscription that loses money on heavy users	Activity, outcome, credit, and hybrid pricing
Manual invoices every month	Orders + automatic invoice generation
No margin visibility per agent or customer	Cost and revenue dashboards per indicator
Weeks to launch a new pricing experiment	Plans, wallets, and fee stacks in the dashboard

What Paygent does

Tracks — SDK records agents, indicators, tokens, voice minutes, video, and external costs
Prices — Setup fees, platform fees, seat fees, usage tiers, credits, custom model rates, taxes
Packages — Plans (Standard/Custom) and credit currencies for tiered or prepaid products
Bills — Orders define the contract; billing runs produce itemized invoices
Collects — Stripe/Razorpay payment links, manual payment recording, wallet top-ups

Core concepts

Agents

An agent is a billable AI product — a chatbot, voice assistant, code reviewer, or content generator. Each agent has an externalId you pass from your application.

Indicators

An indicator is a billable event: message-sent, call-completed, meeting-booked. Activity indicators track work done; outcome indicators track results delivered.

Plans

Plans package pricing into tiers (Starter / Pro / Enterprise) or custom deals per customer. Orders reference plans — not raw agent defaults.

Orders & invoices

An order is the subscription contract (customer, agents, plan, billing day, taxes). Invoices are generated automatically from active orders — you don’t create them manually.
