Services · Ecommerce development · AI document processing subscription sites

Product led subscription sites for Manchester's document AI companies.

Codeeo offers AI document processing subscription website development Manchester product teams use when they want users to discover, try, buy and expand without waiting for a salesperson. We build the marketing pages, sign up flow, usage based billing, in product upgrade prompts and account area around your document extraction or classification product. Manchester's software scene grew up building products people adopt bottom up, from the Northern Quarter to the science park on Oxford Road, and a subscription site for document AI made here should work the same way: quick to start, honest about cost, and easy to grow into.

Your engineers own the models and the processing pipeline. We own the layer that converts interest into paying accounts and keeps billing, entitlements and invoices consistent as each account grows from one user to a whole department.

What the platform covers

AI document processing subscription platform development Manchester teams can grow on.

Product led selling puts heavy demands on the website. A visitor has to understand what your document AI does within seconds, upload a sample and see a result, choose a plan without a call and add colleagues later. Behind that, the billing system must track pages processed, apply plan limits in your product and charge correctly when a team grows halfway through a month. The pieces below are the ones Manchester product teams most often ask us to build. They are designed together, because a gap between the upgrade prompt in your product and the plan page on your website is exactly where paying customers drop away.

Explain your project
  • Sample document demo

    A public page where visitors upload a sample invoice, form or letter, or choose one of yours, and see the extracted fields with confidence scores. Uploads are deleted after a short set period, and the page states that clearly before anything is sent. Sample documents are chosen to show the field types your product handles best.

    Visitors see the product working before they create an account.

  • Fast self serve sign up

    Email or Google and Microsoft sign in, a short workspace setup and a first document processed within minutes. If you choose to offer a trial or an entry tier, its limits are enforced by the same entitlement system as paid plans. Single sign on can be added to business plans later.

    More sign ups reach a processed document on the first day.

  • In product upgrade prompts

    When an account nears its page limit or tries a feature from a higher tier, a prompt explains what the next plan adds and links straight to a prefilled checkout. Prompts are configured from the admin, not hard coded. Each prompt's effect on upgrades is tracked.

    Upgrades happen at the moment value is clearest.

  • Usage based billing engine

    Pages processed are reported from your pipeline as billing events, rated against the customer's plan and shown in a live meter. Committed use discounts and overage rates are handled by the billing provider rather than your own code. Customers can download a usage export for any billing period.

    Billing accuracy no longer depends on monthly spreadsheets.

  • Team and workspace management

    Account owners invite colleagues, assign roles, create workspaces for departments and see usage by workspace. Seats added mid period are prorated and appear as a separate line on the next invoice. Removed users lose access at once, and their seat is credited at renewal.

    Accounts spread through an organisation without sales involvement.

  • Developer portal and API plans

    Documentation, API key management, webhooks, rate limits by plan and request logs, all inside the subscription site, so developers can wire your extraction API into their own tools and upgrade as their volume grows. Sandbox keys never touch billing.

    Developers become paying API customers without a call.

  • UK compliant checkout

    Card and wallet payment with Strong Customer Authentication at setup, Direct Debit for larger accounts, VAT captured and validated by location, and full prices shown up front as the DMCC Act requires for mandatory charges. Failed renewals trigger reminder emails and retries on a schedule you set.

    Checkout that meets UK payment and pricing rules.

  • Health and public sector readiness pages

    Pages covering UK GDPR, your processor role, UK hosting, retention and, where you sell to NHS organisations, your approach to the NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit. Procurement teams in health and housing check these first. Pages are edited by your team in the CMS.

    Public sector buyers find the assurance they need on the site.

  • Activation and revenue analytics

    Funnel reporting from visit to sign up, first processed document, paid plan and expansion, combined with billing data for revenue retention by cohort. Tracking respects consent choices under PECR. Dashboards update daily for the whole Manchester team.

    You can see where users stall and fix the right step.

  • Annual plans and committed use

    Monthly plans for teams that want flexibility, annual plans for teams that want budget certainty, and committed use agreements for larger accounts, each with its own renewal reminders and invoice schedule. Customers can switch from monthly to annual in the account area and see the change to their next invoice before they confirm it.

    Growing Manchester accounts move to annual terms on their own.

Who this is for

Four Manchester teams this approach suits.

Greater Manchester's technology businesses spread from the Northern Quarter and Ancoats to Manchester Science Park, the Oxford Road Corridor and MediaCityUK in Salford, with law and finance firms clustered in Spinningfields. Document AI made here sells to all of those neighbours and to buyers across the country. These four situations come up most in our conversations with Manchester teams. Each one changes which parts of the platform we build first and which can wait for a later release.

01

Startups moving to product led growth

You have a working product and a handful of customers found through the founders' networks, and now you want strangers to sign up and pay. We build the demo, sign up, entitlements and billing together, so the first steps a new user takes and the paid route to more volume are one connected flow rather than separate projects. Onboarding emails are written alongside, each one tied to a step the user has not yet completed.

We start with the shortest route to a first processed document.

02

Digital health and care documentation products

Products that read referral letters, care plans or clinical forms sell to NHS trusts, GP practices and care providers across Greater Manchester and beyond. These buyers combine card paying small practices with procurement led contracts. We build both routes, plus the assurance pages health buyers look for before any pilot begins. Clinical safety and information governance wording is drafted with your own leads, since they own those commitments.

03

Media, rights and contract tools

Broadcasters and production companies around MediaCityUK handle large volumes of contracts, release forms and rights paperwork. Tools that extract terms from these documents sell to production teams on short projects, so we build monthly plans that start and stop easily and workspaces that can be archived when a production ends. Freelance producers can pay by card on a personal account and later move it into their company's workspace.

04

API first document products

If developers are your main buyers, the website is mostly documentation, keys and usage. We build a developer portal with plan based rate limits, usage logs, webhooks and billing that charges per call or per page, so an engineer can go from reading the docs to sending production traffic without speaking to anyone. Status and changelog pages sit in the same site so developers trust what they are building on.

Higher volume customers can still request a committed use agreement.

Six stages to a Manchester subscription platform that sells itself.

  1. 01Activation and pricing discoveryVideo sessions to define your activation moment, plan limits, usage unit, upgrade triggers, payment methods and the data your product will send to billing. We also agree which metrics define success after launch.
  2. 02Funnel and page mapEvery step from landing page to demo, sign up, first document, upgrade and invite mapped, with the event we will measure at each one. The map becomes the tracking plan for analytics.
  3. 03Design and accessible buildDemo, pricing, checkout and account screens designed and built to WCAG 2.2 AA, so users with assistive technology can sign up and manage plans unaided. Copy is written in plain British English for busy users.
  4. 04Entitlements and billing wiringPlan limits enforced in your product from billing data, usage events sent back, and invoices synced to your accounts, tested with simulated accounts. Your engineers review every change that touches the product.
  5. 05Load and edge case testingBulk uploads, concurrent sign ups, limit breaches, proration, failed payments and cancellations tested until meter, access and invoice always agree. Results are shared on the staging site for you to repeat.
  6. 06Launch and growth experimentsRelease, then regular reviews of activation, conversion and expansion data, with tests on onboarding steps, prompts and plan boundaries. Changes are released in small steps so each effect is measurable.

Technology

What we build this with.

We typically use Next.js for the site and demo, Stripe Billing or Chargebee for usage and seats, and your product's own API for entitlements. Analytics use a consent aware setup, and everything is documented for your engineers. Hosting can sit in UK regions when buyers ask.

Manchester founders' questions, answered.

The demo, the meter and the trust pages.

Buyers of document AI want to see their own type of document processed, know what a page costs, and understand what happens to sensitive files. So the site needs a working sample demo, usage billing tied to your pipeline and clear data handling pages, on top of the usual plans and checkout. Each needs to be designed with the others in mind. Most AI document processing SaaS website development in Manchester also needs a developer portal, because technical buyers often decide before anyone else sees the product.
