ChurnLens
Sheridan, Wyoming, United States
What it is
ChurnLens is a self-hosted SaaS metrics tool for analyzing MRR, churn, and LTV from Stripe or CSV billing data. Its full reports show current MRR, ARR run-rate, active customers, average customer churn, and monthly figures such as net-new MRR and LTV. The `mrr` command explains the latest month’s movement through new, expansion, reactivation, contraction, and churned MRR. Reports and commands can return JSON and accept a currency label, using USD by default. Metrics can be recomputed from ledger updates and published as JSON to a BI or dashboard pipeline. The project also lists SARIF output for code scanning, an MCP server for AI agents, and webhook forwarding for SIEM, Slack, and Jira. MCP clients named include Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cognis.Studio, with framework references to LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, and LlamaIndex. It is self-hostable, requires no account, and supports API, Linux, macOS, Windows, and self-hosted deployment. Pricing is on request.
