Can you trust the numbers in Autumn?
Autumn is a billing and entitlements layer that sits between an application and Stripe. Its own help pages give 3 reasons its numbers can look different from what you expect. The first to rule out: As Autumn's docs explain, products and prices show up in Stripe only once first used, so a new plan may be missing there at first.
Is it broken, or just counted differently?
A number can look wrong because the business changed, or because of how Autumn counts it. Below is what Autumn keeps, where its help pages say the numbers can differ, and how to check them yourself.
What does Autumn keep track of?
Autumn keeps its own record of what each customer has bought and what they can use, alongside Stripe's payment records.

Questions owners ask about Autumn
- Why did my billed revenue drop in Autumn?A renewal payment can fail, for example when a card expires between billing cycles, and the subscription then shows as past due until it is paid.
- Why did my billed revenue jump in Autumn?Usage beyond what a plan includes is billed at the end of the billing period, so a whole period's usage can land on one day.
- Why did my overage charges drop in Autumn?A spend limit stops usage once overage reaches its cap, so overage charges cannot grow past that point.

Know the day a number breaks, not the month after.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
