AI-Native SaaS Pricing
AI moved the cost basis under every SaaS pricing page. Inference now sits in COGS, so a flat fee that looked safe at signup can lose money on your heaviest accounts by the third month. Pricing stopped being a packaging exercise and became a unit-economics decision you make before you write a line of copy.
This cluster works through the live models, per-token, per-agent, and hybrid, the margin behavior of each, and how to pick one for your cost structure and your buyer. Every piece ships with worked numbers, named examples from real pricing pages, and a decision framework you can run against your own cost basis.
