ChartMogul alternative: Baremetrics vs. ChartMogul

Yes, if you want to act on your metrics as well as read them. Both tools track MRR, ARR, churn and LTV. Baremetrics adds Recover for failed payments, Cancellation Insights for the moment a customer cancels, and Forecast+ for profit-and-loss, runway and burn-rate models. ChartMogul is the better fit if you want a free built-in CRM or a free plan under $10K MRR.

ChartMogul is free up to $10K MRR ($120K ARR), with unlimited team members, 1 billing source, segmentation, industry benchmarks and ARR forecasting. Above that, Starter costs $57 a month billed annually or $69 billed monthly, with 3 team members, according to ChartMogul's pricing page on 7 October 2026.

Baremetrics is free up to $180K ARR, then $49 a month on Launch up to $360K ARR (month-to-month only). Growth starts from $69 a month ($360K to $3.6M ARR) and Scale from $409 a month ($3.6M+ ARR). Prices scale with the ARR Baremetrics tracks, never per seat, and annual plans can come with up to 35% off the listed price. Payment Recovery is an add-on on any plan at $129 a month or 10% of recovered revenue, Cancellation Insights is a $129-a-month add-on, and Financial Planning is included in Scale. See baremetrics.com/pricing.

ChartMogul can email past-due customers through its CRM, but has no standalone dunning automation: no card-update form, SMS, in-app banner or paywall. Baremetrics Recover is built in: up to 7 branded dunning emails, SMS, an in-app banner and a paywall after your grace period.

Not yet. ChartMogul says ChartMogul AI is read-only for now and that write actions are planned. It can pull cancellation reasons out of emails, notes and calls. Baremetrics Cancellation Insights captures the reason at the moment a customer clicks Cancel and can respond automatically, for example with a discount.

Yes. ChartMogul released an experimental MCP server on 16 June 2025 and an expanded version with more than 80 tools in June 2026. It is read-only, uses OAuth, is available on every plan and is listed in the Claude and ChatGPT directories. Baremetrics also has an MCP server for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and Codex.

Yes. Since 5 August 2026 ChartMogul's CRM is included on every plan, and paid CRM seats have been removed. Baremetrics does not have a built-in CRM; it integrates with HubSpot.

Payment sources from any Stripe, Braintree, Chargebee, Recurly, Apple, Google and Shopify account normalize into one unified MRR, and you can segment by source to see each account on its own. Other processors connect via the Open API. For comparison, ChartMogul's Free and Starter plans allow 1 billing system and Pro allows 5.

ChartMogul models ARR 12 months out under different growth assumptions, on every plan. Baremetrics Forecast+ ingests your actual profit and loss from a CSV, QuickBooks or Xero and models runway, burn rate, department expenses, CAC and budget variance.

Yes. Connect the same billing sources, use CSV import for historical data, and the team will walk through the migration with you on a call.
