Playbook for choosing a pricing model, designing tiers, setting the free-vs-paid line, and estimating willingness to pay with a real method. Used by pricing-strategist.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Pricing Models — playbook

Pricing is the lever that connects product value to a business. A clear,
honest model beats a clever, fragile one.

## 1. The five pricing models — pick by how value grows with use

- **Subscription** — recurring fee for ongoing value. Predictable revenue;
  retention is the metric. Fits products used continuously.
- **Usage-based** — pay for what you consume (API calls, GB, seats). Aligns
  cost to value; harder to forecast. Fits products where heavy users get
  much more value than light users.
- **Freemium** — free tier + paid upgrade. Works ONLY when the free tier
  meaningfully limits power-user value AND attracts the right audience.
  Fails when free is "good enough" forever or attracts the wrong crowd.
- **One-time** — single payment. Simple. No retention lever; growth must
  come from new buyers. Fits one-shot value (a course, a tool, a template).
- **Hybrid** — combinations (subscription + usage overage, freemium +
  enterprise tier). Powerful but complex; use only when one model alone
  leaves obvious value uncaptured.

Pick by matching the model to HOW VALUE GROWS WITH USE:
- Value grows with use → usage-based has a real case.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vandanaajaydubey111/great-pm/pricing-models@sha256:3377fc3c6d476a6f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.86de099, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
