What it does

Analyze and design pricing strategies including pricing models, competitive pricing analysis, willingness-to-pay estimation, and price elasticity. Use when setting prices, evaluating pricing models, preparing for a pricing change, or comparing freemium vs paid approaches.

Installed, it changes the agent in these ways.

What this skill changes about the agent is not written down here yet. The listing was collected from its source, and the description is in its own SKILL.md.

Workflow

Runs a procedure end to end.

The skill itself

This is the whole product. A skill is instructions the model reads, so there is nothing behind the listing you cannot see first — the front matter loads with every session, and the body below it loads when the skill triggers.

6## Pricing Strategy
7
8Design a pricing strategy grounded in value delivery, competitive positioning, and willingness to pay.
9
10### Context
11
12You are developing a pricing strategy for **$ARGUMENTS**.
13
14If the user provides files (competitor pricing, survey data, financial models, or usage data), read them first. Use web search to research competitor pricing if needed.
15
16### Instructions
17
181. **Understand the value delivered**:
19 - What is the core value proposition?
20 - What is the customer's alternative (and its cost)?
21 - What quantifiable outcomes does the product deliver? (time saved, revenue gained, cost reduced)
22 - What is the customer's willingness to pay based on that value?
23
242. **Evaluate pricing models** — recommend the best fit:
25
26 | Model | Best For | Example |
27 |---|---|---|
28 | **Flat-rate** | Simple products, predictable costs | Basecamp ($99/mo flat) |
29 | **Per-seat** | Collaboration tools, team products | Slack, Figma |
30 | **Usage-based** | Infrastructure, API products | AWS, Twilio |
31 | **Tiered** | Products with distinct user segments | Most SaaS (Free/Pro/Enterprise) |
32 | **Freemium** | Products with viral/network effects | Spotify, Notion |
33 | **Freemium + usage** | Platform products | Vercel, OpenAI API |
34 | **Value-based** | High-impact enterprise tools | Salesforce, Palantir |
35
363. **Analyze competitive pricing**:
37 - Map competitor pricing tiers and what's included
38 - Identify where your product sits (premium, mid-market, budget)
39 - Find pricing gaps or opportunities
40 - Note any industry pricing conventions
41
424. **Design the pricing structure**:
43 - **Tiers**: Define 2-4 tiers with clear differentiation
44 - **Feature gating**: Which features go in which tier? (Use value metrics, not arbitrary limits)
45 - **Value metric**: What unit do you charge on? (users, events, storage, API calls)
46 - **Anchor pricing**: Set the most popular tier to feel like the obvious choice
47 - **Annual discount**: Typically 15-20% off monthly pricing
48
495. **Estimate price sensitivity**:
50 - Van Westendorp Price Sensitivity Meter (if survey data available):
51 - Too cheap → quality concerns
52 - Cheap → good value
53 - Expensive → starting to hesitate
54 - Too expensive → won't buy
55 - Alternatively, estimate based on competitor pricing and value delivered
56
576. **Plan pricing experiments**:
58 - A/B test pricing pages (different price points, tier names, feature bundles)
59 - Founder-led sales conversations to test willingness to pay
60 - Landing page tests with different price anchors
61 - Cohort analysis of conversion rates by price point
62
637. **Output a pricing recommendation**:
64 ```
65 Recommended Model: [Model type]
66 Value Metric: [What you charge on]
67
68 | Tier | Price | Target Segment | Key Features | Positioning |
69 |---|---|---|---|---|
70
71 Key Assumptions:
72 - [Assumption] → [How to test]
73
74 Risks:
75 - [Risk] → [Mitigation]
76 ```
77
78Think step by step. Save as markdown. Flag any assumptions that need validation before launch.

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈80
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
845
on trigger
The instruction body, read only when the skill fires.
0.46%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 5% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

925 tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Small enough to keep loaded permanently without thinking about it.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been published here. It is in the skill’s own SKILL.md, which its author has not sent to the marketplace yet.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

It writes no files and reaches no network. All it changes is how the model reasons and writes.

What it asks for
Writes filesno
Network accessno

Read from the allowed-tools line of this skill’s own SKILL.md. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

1 file, 3.7 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • SKILL.md3.7 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 1 file you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

Keeps workingfor good — the files are yours once they are on disk
Updatesevery update its author ships, delivered through this account

You can read the whole bundle before paying — the SKILL.md above is the product, not a preview of it. What the money buys is the delivery: the folder packaged and handed to your machine by key, every update its author ships, and our support if it does not do what this listing says. The terms of use are MIT, set by the author and unchanged by buying it here.

Payment runs through Stripe, on a page like this one rather than a redirect. Once there is an account it joins the same mcprush invoice as everything else you run, so there is never a second card to enter.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. A client with a skills folder reads it without being told; everywhere else the same text works, it is just handed to the model rather than found.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.

Reviews

no reviews yet · no installs yet

Nobody has reviewed this skill yet. The rating is the mean of the reviews written here, so there is none until somebody writes the first.

Who can post

Only accounts that have had the skill installed for fourteen days, so a review is written after living with it rather than after reading it. Publishers may reply once.
