The average price of our services goal is defined by the category that we analyze.

So for example, in the case of cosmetics, you can assume like, for example, facial moisturizers is one category, facial cleansers is another category.

And the price goes between $100,000 and $150,000.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

It's actually not very much based on... It's based on how many retailers, for example, we have to analyze for customers, depending, to your point, a bit about the extensions of the category in terms of SKU that needs to be monitored.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

Because we take a census of the categories that we analyze.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

So in our database, there is always...

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

Every single SKU is included, but depending on how many SKUs the customer wants to monitor, of course, the price varies.

Okay.

How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

We have currently nine, well, no, eight customers paying.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

We are currently at one because we are, it's funny, when we started in 2019, we were pricing a bit lower, actually much lower.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

As we grew, we extended the pricing because we noticed that the problem that we were solving was much bigger than the price we had.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
How he doubled from $500k to $1m Last 12 months selling Data as a Service

So we started at a typical, more normal SaaS price, and then we grew, basically.
