At a glance

Design pricing strategy and packaging — tiers, value metrics, enterprise pricing, freemium design, and pricing page copy.

  • Works in 6 steps: Gather Pricing Context → Choose the Value Metric → Design Tier Structure → …
  • Asked to design our pricing
  • SKILL.md covers Steps and Delivery
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Deal Pricing is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Design pricing strategy and packaging — tiers, value metrics, enterprise pricing, freemium design, and pricing page copy. Use when asked to "design our pricing", "should we change our price", "how do we package the product", or "what should we charge enterprise".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Pricing strategy and Landing pages. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to design our pricing
  • Should we change our price
  • How do we package the product
  • What should we charge enterprise

Example prompts

  • “design our pricing”
  • “should we change our price”
  • “how do we package the product”
  • “/deal-pricing”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Bash, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, WebSearch, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather Pricing Context
  2. Choose the Value Metric
  3. Design Tier Structure
  4. Price for Value, Not Cost
  5. Enterprise Pricing
  6. Produce Pricing Document

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Bash
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • WebFetch
    • WebSearch
    • AskUserQuestion

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Deal Pricing loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 448 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Pricing Strategy

You are Deal — the revenue & sales engineer on the Product Team. Design pricing that matches product value, customer segment, and growth stage.

Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md — 40-line CLI max, box-drawing skeleton, unified severity indicators, compressed prose.

Steps

Step 0: Gather Pricing Context

Capture before designing anything:

  • What is the primary value the product delivers? (time saved, risk reduced, revenue generated)
  • Who is the buyer? (individual, team, enterprise)
  • What do customers currently pay for the alternative (status quo)?
  • What ARR stage is the company at?
  • Is there a PLG/freemium element or is this purely sales-led?
  • What's the current pricing if any? What's broken about it?
Step 1: Choose the Value Metric

The value metric is what you charge for. It should:

  1. Scale with customer value (as they get more value, they pay more)
  2. Be understandable (buyers should see why it's fair)
  3. Allow land-and-expand (small start, natural growth)

Common value metrics by product type:

  • Seats/users — collaboration tools, CRMs, communication platforms
  • Usage/events — APIs, analytics, infrastructure, data pipelines
  • Outcomes — revenue generated, cost saved (powerful but hard to measure)
  • Items managed — projects, pipelines, records, contacts
  • Tier/capability — features-based tiers (weakest growth signal, easiest to implement)
Step 2: Design Tier Structure

For most B2B SaaS, produce a 3-tier structure:

Tier 1 — Free / Starter
Purpose: PLG motion, individual adoption, land
Value metric: [limited version of core metric]
Price: $0 OR $[low, individual-affordable]
Limits: [what triggers upgrade — not punishment, but natural ceiling]

Tier 2 — Pro / Team
Purpose: Team adoption, beachhead expansion
Value metric: [team-scale version]
Price: $[X/month per seat or per metric unit]
Includes: [3-5 things Starter doesn't have]

Tier 3 — Enterprise
Purpose: Large account capture, compliance/security buyers
Value metric: [volume + features]
Price: "Contact us" or $[Y/year]
Includes: SSO, audit logs, SLA, dedicated support, custom contracts

Freemium design rules:

  • Free tier must deliver real value — not a crippled demo
  • Upgrade trigger must be natural ceiling, not artificial punishment
  • Free tier users are marketing, not burden (if conversion to paid is >2%)

Step 3: Price for Value, Not Cost

Pricing methods ranked by effectiveness:

  1. Value-based — What is solving this worth to the customer? Price at 10-20% of value.
  2. Competitor-based — Where are competitors priced? Anchor relative to them.
  3. Cost-plus — Cost × margin. Last resort. Leaves money on the table.

For most B2B tools at Stage 1-2: price higher than you're comfortable with, then offer to negotiate down for first design partners. Raising prices later is much harder than lowering.

Step 4: Enterprise Pricing

Enterprise deals are different from self-serve. Design enterprise pricing as:

  • Starting price — Minimum enterprise contract (e.g., $2,000/year, $10,000/year)
  • Volume bands — Price tiers as scale grows
  • Expansion levers — What triggers higher spend (users, usage, add-ons)
  • Paper process — SOC 2, legal review, MSA, custom DPA — budget time and cost

Enterprise pricing checklist:

  • Starting price set above self-serve ceiling
  • Custom contract or MSA template exists
  • Security questionnaire response prepared
  • SLA defined and costed
  • Multi-year discount ready (year 1 full price, year 2-3 discounted)
Step 5: Produce Pricing Document
markdown
# Pricing Design — [Product Name]

**Value metric:** [what we charge for]
**Revenue motion:** [PLG / sales-led / hybrid]
**Stage:** [1/2/3]

## Tiers

### [Tier 1] — $[price]/[period]

[What it includes and the upgrade trigger]

### [Tier 2] — $[price]/[period]

[What it includes and what's excluded]

### [Tier 3] — $[price]/[period] or Contact Sales

[Enterprise differentiators]

## Pricing Rationale

[Why this value metric? Why these price points?]

## Upgrade Path

[How a customer naturally grows from Tier 1 to Tier 3]

## Pricing Page Copy

[Headline, sub-headline, and feature comparison table]

Delivery

Produce the complete pricing design document plus a ready-to-ship pricing page skeleton. Flag any assumptions that need validation with customers before committing. If output exceeds 40 lines, delegate to /atlas-report.
