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 yesterday.

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.
