Are you making the #1 mistake in AI pricing? Many founders are using their old SaaS pricing model, but for AI, that’s a huge error. As pricing expert Dan Balcauski explains, it’s like showing customers your “underpants”, and it’s killing your sales. In this guide to AI pricing, Dan breaks down why the game has changed. Unlike traditional SaaS, AI products have significant variable costs and unpredictable customer value, creating a new set of challenges for founders. We explore the psychology of value-based pricing, how to choose the right pricing metric, and the strategies companies like Google and OpenAI are using to price their AI tools.
