I bought a copy. It looks nice, but I had to add it to the pile of Stripe "add-ons", app or otherwise, that don't do the ONE thing that I'm constantly trying to figure out manually (and I imagine other SaaS owners would, too):

Based on CURRENT subscriptions, how much money can I expect to collect over the next X days? Stripe tells me about transfers that are scheduled, but I can't look past money that's already been collected without manually pulling down a bunch of subscription data and trying to figure out how much we're going to be paid on each day in the future.

I'd be happy for this to be a command line script - I just haven't managed to figure out the best way to do it!

This is actually an awesome idea -- almost like a forecast of the money you'll earn? Should be simple to do it programmatically. I'm going to add something to our feature list to explore this.

IOS Only :( We're building a really big project using Stripe right now, it's too bad I can't give stripe an extra $6 (which I would do in a heartbeat).

iOS as a first step, once it's solid, Wess and I may tackle an Android app as well. Who knows.

Killer :)

I've got a question about the current dashboard: by default, "Today's Volume" seems to include more than today. "This Month's Volume" also seems to include more than this month (the range goes to the end of this month). How are these figures actually calculated?

Edit: you can email me directly, alex@indyhall.org, if you'd like to talk more about this off-forum.

Totally agree with Alex. This is something that I (and most other SaaS owners I know) look at regularly. And it's not always easy.
