Exciting to see the progress of Lago and the attention being given to the challenges in the SaaS billing world.
We're also working in the billing space with a complementary tool, Tier (https://github.com/tierrun/tier). Although we currently do not support Lago directly, it's exciting to see more options emerging. Their content marketing has been particularly impressive on HN and in general.
With metering, entitlement management, CPQ, feature gating, and everything else required in a modern SaaS company, the PriceOps space can be quite complex for developers.
Lago backend is built with Ruby and GraphQL ... which is kind of deal-breaker for me. No time to invest in Ruby ecosystem. I'm only using opensource products which I can fork and debug later on.

Lago is much closer the production ready however. Solid stand-alone tool already.
Tier like projects gives me hope to give SaaS user better embedded billing experience and more control in the future.
My biggest scare - successful open source projects are getting too many extraline of code overtime.
Thanks! The space is becoming more and more exciting. Many players will emerge in different verticals, creating a great impact. Companies will be able to price, invoice, and track usage with greater precision.

Congratulations on the launch and best of luck!
