No worries. I agree "SaaS" might be a bit of a misnomer in our case, but we wanted to distinguish ourselves from desktop software (which still rules our industry).

Thanks for reading!

Hi, other founder here. Does "SaaS" have to be synonymous with a subscription business model?

I wouldn't put it synonymous, but most of the SaaS products I've ever paid and used were based on monthly/yearly subscriptions and were not "pay per use", so that's probably why people mostly use it that way - but there's credit token models though, e.g. SauceLabs or Audible where your monthly payments grants you N tokens to spend now or later.

SaaS does not imply a recurring billing model. Stripe, Twilio, Square, Facebook, Google - all SaaS, none have a recurring billing model.
