    About

    In practice. What you can do with Profitwell.

    ProfitWell Metrics, acquired by Paddle, gives a clear view of the core SaaS metrics: MRR, churn, retention and LTV, segmented by plan or market. Its main advantage is that it is free, with no time limit, by connecting to Stripe, Chargebee, Braintree or other billing systems.

    For a solopreneur or a small SaaS business that wants to track recurring revenue without complexity or cost, it is an obvious option: there is no paid plan to weigh up, since the tool is funded by the Paddle ecosystem.

    The limit: advanced capabilities such as deep segmentation and forecasting stay richer at paid competitors like ChartMogul once analytical needs grow.

    • Analyze churn by cohort and customer type.
