  • AI Pricing: New Costs, Old Rules
    2026/09/04
    Every SaaS company is racing to build with AI. Almost none of them have touched their pricing to match it. This episode pulls together the founders, operators, and pricing experts actually living through that gap — pricing tokens nobody's agreed a value for, replacing seats with performance-based revenue, and figuring out whether AI is making things cheaper or just more confusing. Along the way: a real story about an AI sales call that cost a company a customer, and an AI founder's honest answer to whether any of this replaces human judgment. These are the pricing lessons AI is forcing right now, whether you're ready for them or not. TAKEAWAYS AI can find pricing value you were too scared to test yourself. (George Boretos)If you're pivoting your business to build around AI, your pricing has to pivot with it. (Marcos Rivera)Nobody's agreed on what a token is actually worth — and your customers already know it. (Bill Wilson)Cutting a human for AI can look like savings and still cost you the customer. (Stephen Steers)AI costs are high today. Like every computing technology before it, they'll come down. (Cameron Barragan)If your revenue depends on seats, AI is already coming for that model. (Chris Brisson)Outcome-based pricing means getting paid for the result — not just for access. (Karan Sood)Every seismic shift threatens existing business models. SaaS will survive this one too. (Rob Walling)AI can recommend the price. A person still has to decide it.

  • How Charlie AI Priced Its Way to $5.5M a Month
    2026/08/20

    Iggy Odighizuwa, founder of Charlie AI, built an AI-powered sales tool that's now producing $5.5 million a month in cash collected — but getting the pricing right took some real adjustments along the way.

    Marcos and Iggy trace how an early flat $2,000/month fee didn't account for usage costs, and how that shaped Charlie AI's move to a performance-based model, where clients cover their own usage and hand over a small percentage of the upside the product creates for them. They also get into where Iggy's confidence around pricing and negotiation comes from — being born in Ohio, sent to live in Nigeria as a kid, and learning early that boundaries have to be set and held.

    A real look at how a growing AI company rebuilt its pricing model around the value it actually delivers.

    TAKEAWAYS

    • If your costs scale with usage, a flat fee will eventually eat your margin. Price the variable cost, not just the value.
    • Performance-based pricing only works once you've built enough trust for a customer to believe in the outcome.
    • Real conviction means you don't defend your price — you just point at the results.
    • As clients scale with you, the pricing has to scale too, or the incentives fall out of alignment.
    • Get in the right room, get the right information, and don't waste your suffering.
    • The confidence to hold a boundary in business often traces back to the first time you learned to hold one at all.

  • The Only 8 Pricing Rules You Need | The Best Of Season 1
    2026/08/06

    Most founders don't have a pricing problem, they have a confidence problem. Marcos Rivera brings together the sharpest pricing lessons from founders, operators, investors, and pricing experts. Together, they tackle two of the biggest challenges in pricing: how to know your value and actually charge for it, and how to hold that price once a buyer pushes back.

    Consider this your cheat sheet for pricing with confidence.

    TAKEAWAYS

    • Never justify or apologize for your price. The price is the price. (PJ Jackson)
    • You don't have to feel ready to raise your price for it to work. (Rob Walling)
    • Know your total economic value before you set what you'll actually charge. (Karan Sood)
    • Spend most of your time on packaging, not the price number itself. (Peter Cohen)
    • Good friction in your entry tier pushes customers to upgrade when they're ready. (Bill Wilson)
    • Price variability trains buyers to keep squeezing. Consistency builds trust instead. (Michael Shields)
    • Brand does the emotional convincing before pricing ever gets discussed. (Kevan Lee & Shannon Deep)
    • If you want the truth from customers, change your price and listen. (Evan Munsing)
