Case Study: Vercel cuts time to build and launch billing by 80% with Orb
Key results
The challenge
Vercel, a frontend cloud platform, needed a billing source of truth that could scale with its products. Pricing and billing work was bottlenecking engineering, and manual reconciliation required temporary staffing.
The solution
Vercel ran a 70% load test of proxy traffic into Orb and got up and running in three weeks, adopting Orb as its billing source of truth for usage metrics and invoicing.
“Pricing and billing are no longer blockers to our engineering velocity and our entire organization is on the same page when it comes to usage metrics and billing.”
DCDan CarterDirector of Engineering, Vercel
The results, in context
Orb reduced the time it takes Vercel to build and launch billing for new products by 80% and cut the need to hire temporary staff for manual reconciliation by 50%. The team recently built and launched billing for a new product in three weeks.
