pricing-strategist is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from daffy0208/ai-dev-standards. It costs 53 tokens per session (4,108 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of pricing-strategist, MIT.

A specialist for deciding how a software-as-a-service product charges customers, including its plans, packages, pricing measure, and experiments. Software as a service is software customers use online, usually through a subscription.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set initial prices, redesign subscription tiers, choose what customers pay for, improve conversion, and plan pricing experiments.
Why use it?
It helps replace guesswork about prices and plans with choices tied to customer value and usage. It also helps identify confusing packaging or ways to test pricing changes.

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-strategist 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 12d 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 Strategist

Design pricing strategies that maximize revenue while keeping customers happy.

Core Principles

  1. Pricing is a growth lever: 1% improvement in pricing = 11% improvement in profit (McKinsey)
  2. Price to value, not cost: Charge based on value delivered, not what it costs you
  3. Simple > Clever: 3 tiers beats 5 tiers; clear packaging beats complex
  4. Experiment continuously: A/B test, iterate, optimize

Pricing Strategy Framework

Step 1: Determine Your Value Metric

Value metric = What you charge for (users, projects, API calls, etc.)

Good value metrics:

  • Align with customer value (as they get more value, they pay more)
  • Easy to understand and predict
  • Grow naturally with usage

Examples:

Slack: Per active user
  ✅ Grows with team size
  ✅ Easy to understand
  ✅ Aligns with value

Twilio: Per API call
  ✅ Grows with usage
  ✅ Predictable for users
  ✅ Direct value correlation

Dropbox: Storage size
  ✅ Clear metric
  ✅ Grows with needs
  ⚠️ Can be gamed (compression)

AWS: Everything (CPU, storage, bandwidth, etc.)
  ⚠️ Complex but accurate
  ⚠️ Hard to predict costs
  ✅ Pay for what you use

Value Metric Decision Matrix:

Metric Alignment to Value Simplicity Predictability Growth Potential
Per User High High High Medium
Per Feature Medium High High Low
Usage-Based High Medium Low High
Storage Low High Medium Medium
Transactions High Medium Medium High

Step 2: Choose Your Pricing Model

Flat Rate:

$99/month - unlimited everything
  • ✅ Simple to understand
  • ✅ Easy to sell
  • ❌ Leaves money on table
  • ❌ Doesn't scale with value

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.
