Business Model Preferences

These are organizational preferences. Apply them when designing or reviewing any billing integration.

Philosophy

Keep it simple. Complexity in pricing confuses customers and creates engineering debt.

Pricing Model

Single tier or nothing. Either:

• Free and open source (no billing)
• One price point with full access

No multiple tiers. No Basic/Pro/Enterprise. No feature gating. No usage-based pricing.

If annual pricing exists, it's simply "2 months free" — same features, discounted rate.
