In this month's edition of The Monetization Monthly, one theme appears across conversations with OpenAI, Vercel, LinkedIn, Notion, Baseten, Benedict Evans, and Geoffrey Moore: More than the "right" business model or pricing point, selling and scaling AI successfully requires you to build a monetization system that lets you adapt as the market changes. This month's edition features stories like: ➡️ OpenAI on finding that chat has a natural usage ceiling, but agents don't ➡️ Vercel on measuring success by pricing agility ➡️ Notion on realizing cost lives at the task level, not the token level ➡️ How Benedict Evans draws a parallel between today's token pricing and early mobile data plans ➡️ Baseten on why many AI companies are moving toward open models because they unlock levers to improve margins as usage scales If you're building AI products, give this month's edition a read to learn about the operational decisions these teams are making as they figure pricing out in production. Then, let us know what you think in the comments.
