What is Lemonway?
Lemonway's feed is mostly bank-holiday ops with one real onboarding tweak buried in it.
Lemonway's recent changelog is dominated by recurring operational notices: SEPA and international-transfer cutoffs around French bank holidays, a sandbox server migration tied to PCI/DSS infrastructure work, and support-availability windows. The substantive product change in the window is the removal of an OTP step from the Online Onboarding identity-verification flow (QES by Onfido).
What is Stigg?
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.
Lemonway vs Stigg: editorial side-by-side
Lemonway
5.0FINANCE
Lemonway's feed is mostly bank-holiday ops with one real onboarding tweak buried in it.
◆ Current state
Lemonway's recent changelog is dominated by recurring operational notices: SEPA and international-transfer cutoffs around French bank holidays, a sandbox server migration tied to PCI/DSS infrastructure work, and support-availability windows. The substantive product change in the window is the removal of an OTP step from the Online Onboarding identity-verification flow (QES by Onfido).
◆ Where it's heading
As a regulated French PSP, Lemonway's customer-visible work mostly orbits around banking calendar rhythms and compliance plumbing. Product evolution shows up sparingly — the OTP removal in February and Faster Pay by Bank in January are the only two real feature notes in the past four months — pointing at a roadmap focused on conversion friction in onboarding and SEPA-Instant settlement speed.
◆ Prediction
Expect the operational-notice cadence to continue around upcoming French bank holidays. Real product motion is likely to stay on the onboarding and pay-by-bank surfaces, since those are where the team has invested visibly in the past quarter; anything else would be a departure from the established pattern.
Stigg
7.5FINANCE
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
◆ Current state
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.
◆ Where it's heading
Stigg is placing its billing engine at the points where AI agents spend money: the orchestrator, the gateway and credit reservation before each operation. Billing-backend breadth, now Airwallex invoicing, keeps pace in the background.
◆ Prediction
Expect more gateway and orchestrator integrations in the Agent SDK and its move out of beta. Billing backends will likely keep widening around Airwallex and its peers.
