UniBee is a subscription billing and financial analytics platform for SaaS businesses. Its Analytics feature is built directly into the billing engine, unifying subscription, invoice, and payment data to provide finance teams with real-time financial reporting and forecasting capabilities, helping answer the question, "How much revenue are we actually generating from subscriptions?"
I. Purpose UniBee primarily addresses the problem of fragmented data and unclear revenue at SaaS companies: subscriptions, invoices, and payments are disconnected from one another, general-purpose reports struggle to trace billing to actual revenue, and founders need a clear view of revenue. It integrates billing and revenue analytics into the same system, allowing finance teams to gain revenue insights without BI tools or data specialists.
II. Main Capabilities
- Billing and subscription management: supports models such as flat-rate, tiered, usage-based, or per-seat pricing; automated invoicing and dunning; can connect to Stripe, PayPal, and other payment gateways without requiring all transactions to go through a single provider.
- SaaS metrics monitoring: observe core metrics such as MRR, ARR, Churn, and customer LTV; gain granular insights by customer, product, and plan.
- Subscription and invoice-related metrics: including Reactivation MRR, Contraction MRR, Voluntary Churn, Delinquent Churn, Contraction ARR, and others.
- Revenue analytics: view Revenue by Plans, customer LTV trends, number of active customers, customer churn rate, and lifetime value (LTV).
- Customer loyalty analytics: analyze usage patterns, from trial churn to upgrade behavior, and predict customer value to guide proactive operations.
