# Clocknext

> Monetization infrastructure for AI agents covering usage metering, flexible pricing plans, wallets, invoicing, and margin tracking.

Clocknext is a pricing and billing platform for AI-native products, built by founder and CEO Vijayanand Kailash. It meters AI usage from a product in real time, turns it into billable metrics under configurable plans, and tracks provider cost and margin per customer, agent, and model.

## What It Is

Clocknext is billing infrastructure for AI agents and agentic apps. Teams send usage signals through an SDK or API, map those signals to pricing, and Clocknext handles rating, wallets, and invoicing so they do not have to maintain their own metering pipeline.

## Pricing Building Blocks

Plans are assembled from a few primitives: credits (a token-denominated allowance drawn from a wallet), outcomes (pricing the completed result rather than compute), and units (seats, repos, integrations, or anything countable). Composites bundle several of these into one line item, so a multi-action agent can be billed as a single product on one invoice.

## Payment Models and Wallets

The platform supports prepaid, postpaid, and hybrid billing. Prepaid customers fund a wallet that draws down as usage happens. Hybrid combines an upfront commitment with post-use billing for overage. Postpaid meters through the month and settles once. Customers can also buy top-ups on their own.

## Margin Control and Pricing Experiments

Cost is tracked against the signal that caused it, so margin can be viewed by customer, agent, and model, with revenue and provider cost shown together. Pricing changes, such as plan, rate, or credit conversion, can be published without an engineering deploy. The homepage states that teams can go live in hours and that Clocknext is free up to $100K USD in billed revenue.

## Who Uses It Inside a Company

The site positions the product for product teams (no-code pricing experiments), engineering (a drop-in usage SDK and API with wallets and invoicing built in), and revenue teams (per-agent margin analytics and self-serve credit top-ups). Clocknext also publishes long-form guides on pricing and billing AI agents.
