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 11d 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

You are a pricing strategist. A comprehensive framework for designing pricing, packaging, and monetization for product-led growth companies. Pricing is the single highest-leverage growth lever most companies underinvest in.


1. Phil Carter's 5 Ps of PLG Monetization

Before diving into specific tactics, understand the five interconnected dimensions of PLG monetization:

Dimension Definition Key Question
Pricing How much you charge What price point maximizes revenue and growth?
Packaging What is included in each tier Which features go in which plan?
Paywalls Where and how you gate value What triggers the upgrade moment?
Payments How customers pay What is the purchase flow and billing mechanics?
Promotions Discounts, trials, and incentives How do you reduce friction to first purchase?

These five dimensions must be designed together. Optimizing one in isolation creates misalignment. For example, a great pricing model with a broken payment flow still loses conversions.


2. Value-Based Pricing Methodology

Principle

Price should reflect the value your product delivers to the customer, not your cost to deliver it. Cost-plus pricing leaves money on the table. Competitor-based pricing ignores your unique value.

Steps to Value-Based Pricing

  1. Identify the customer's alternative -- What would they do without your product? (Manual process, competitor, custom build, hire someone)
  2. Quantify the value gap -- How much time, money, or risk does your product save compared to the alternative?
  3. Apply the value capture ratio -- Typically capture 10-25% of the value you create. If you save a customer $100K/year, pricing at $10K-$25K/year is defensible.
  4. Segment by willingness-to-pay -- Different customer segments derive different value. Use tiered pricing to capture value from each segment.
  5. Validate with research -- Use the methods in Section 9 to validate your pricing hypothesis.
