See price history: Sage Intacct · Stripe
Cloud accounting/ERP positioned as the mid-market alternative to NetSuite for finance-heavy organizations (nonprofits, professional services, SaaS). Distinctive for its multi-entity consolidations and dimensional GL structure that SMB tools like QuickBooks lack. Owned by Sage. Pricing opaque, quote-only, typically $15K-$50K+/year plus implementation. Popular with 50-500 employee finance teams that outgrew QuickBooks but can't justify Oracle.
The payments infrastructure standard, private, valued $95B (2024). Positioned as the alternative to legacy payment processors (First Data, Worldpay) for developer-friendly integration. Distinctive for its API design that commoditized payment complexity and its expansion into billing (Stripe Billing), tax, and financial infrastructure. Priced 2.9% + 30¢ per US card transaction — the tax on every SaaS subscription in the world. IPO watched but never happens.
