Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pricing-strategy scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Pricing Strategy

Pricing model design, competitive analysis, and pricing page optimization.

Pricing Models

Model How It Works Best For Risk
Per-seat Price per user/month Collaboration tools Discourages adoption
Usage-based Pay for what you use APIs, infrastructure Revenue unpredictability
Tiered Feature-gated plans SaaS with clear feature tiers Complexity, feature gating frustration
Freemium Free tier + paid upgrades PLG, network effects Low conversion (2-5% typical)
Flat-rate One price for everything Simple products Leaves money on table
Hybrid Base + usage or seat + usage Complex products Pricing complexity
Per-unit Price per resource (project, site) Agencies, multi-property Usage ceiling anxiety

Value Metric Selection

The value metric is what you charge for (seats, API calls, revenue managed, etc.).

Good value metric criteria:

  1. Scales with customer value — as they get more value, they naturally pay more
  2. Easy to understand — customer can predict their bill
  3. Measurable — you can track and bill accurately
  4. Controllable — customer can influence their usage
Product Type Common Value Metrics
Email marketing Contacts, emails sent
Analytics Events tracked, monthly users
CRM Seats, contacts
Infrastructure Compute hours, storage, requests
E-commerce platform GMV, orders, SKUs
Design tools Seats, projects, exports

Competitive Pricing Analysis

Analysis Framework

  1. Inventory competitors — list all direct and indirect alternatives
  2. Map pricing models — how does each charge?
  3. Normalize to common unit — price per seat/month at comparable usage
  4. Position on value map — plot price vs. feature completeness
  5. Identify gaps — underserved price points or segments

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
