Revenue path testing for small SaaS teams

Payment worked. Customer access failed.

Revenue Path Guard runs a test customer through signup, checkout and paid access. If the path fails, you see where it failed and what happened.

How the pilot works

One customer path. Four clear steps.

We start with one path that matters to revenue. You approve the steps and the expected result before any test runs.

  1. 01

    Map the path

    Read-only checks find the likely signup, pricing and checkout routes in your local test app.

  2. 02

    You approve it

    You confirm the path and state exactly what a paying customer should receive.

  3. 03

    Run the check

    A synthetic customer follows the approved path. The browser, webhook and paid access are checked separately.

  4. 04

    Get the evidence

    A short report shows what passed, what failed and how to repeat the test.

Clear pass or fail

A successful payment does not prove the customer got access.

A site can be online and Stripe can accept payment while the customer remains stuck on the free plan. That is the failure RPG is designed to catch.

Checkout completedThe synthetic checkout returned a success result.

Webhook receivedThe test event was accepted once.

Pilot limits

The first version stays inside a tight safety boundary.

Included
  • Local app started inside the CI job
  • Synthetic checkout fixture
  • Synthetic customer accounts
  • Read-only path mapping before approval
  • Sanitized evidence saved with the CI run
Not allowed
  • Remote preview or production targets
  • Card-entry steps or real charges

Pilot pricing

The first check is free. Monitoring has to earn its keep.

If the first check is useful, you can choose ongoing monitoring. All prices are in USD. Accepted participants receive a secure Stripe-hosted checkout link by email; this site does not start a subscription or take payment.

Single path check

$0

One qualifying application and one approved customer path.

Agency

$499/month

Planned multi-app monitoring for agencies. Not available until the single-path pilot proves demand.

Ten pilot places

Apply to test one customer path.

The pilot is for Next.js apps using Stripe. It currently uses a synthetic checkout, not a real Stripe Checkout flow. Your app runs locally in an isolated CI job and you approve the path before it runs. RPG does not need write access to your repository. Two small test-only cleanup endpoints may be needed.

SaaS team with 1 to 15 people

Plain answers

What you should know before applying.

Does this make real Stripe charges?

No. The pilot has no card-entry step and uses a synthetic checkout. Testing a real Stripe test-mode flow is the next step, but it has not been proven yet.

Does it need production access?

No. The runner accepts only an application started on localhost inside the same CI job. Remote previews and production URLs are refused.

Is pass or fail based on AI judgment?

No. AI may suggest a path, but you approve it. Each result is based on fixed checks with a clear expected outcome.

Is this a finished production product?

No. This is a private validation pilot. It is not a replacement for your current testing, monitoring or security controls.
