ai-pricing

When the user wants to price an AI product, choose a charge metric, design pricing tiers, or optimize margins. Also use when the user mentions 'AI pricing,' 'usage-based pricing,' 'consumption pricing,' 'outcome pricing,' 'BYOK,' 'bring your own key,' 'per-seat pricing,' 'pricing tiers,' 'AI margins,' 'cost per token,' or 'pricing model.' This skill covers pricing strategy, packaging, and margin management for AI-native products. Do NOT use for technical implementation, code review, or software architecture.

Quality

Discovery

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is an excellent skill description that hits all the marks. It provides specific capabilities, extensive natural trigger terms, clear 'when to use' and 'when not to use' guidance, and occupies a distinct niche. The explicit exclusion clause is a particularly strong addition that helps prevent misselection.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'price an AI product, choose a charge metric, design pricing tiers, or optimize margins' and further specifies 'pricing strategy, packaging, and margin management for AI-native products.'

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (price AI products, choose charge metrics, design tiers, optimize margins, pricing strategy/packaging/margin management) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause with extensive trigger terms). Also includes a 'Do NOT use' exclusion clause for additional clarity.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'AI pricing,' 'usage-based pricing,' 'consumption pricing,' 'outcome pricing,' 'BYOK,' 'bring your own key,' 'per-seat pricing,' 'pricing tiers,' 'AI margins,' 'cost per token,' 'pricing model.' These are terms users would naturally use.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive niche focused on AI product pricing strategy with clear boundaries. The explicit exclusion of 'technical implementation, code review, or software architecture' further reduces conflict risk with engineering-focused skills.

Implementation

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a strong, well-structured pricing strategy skill with excellent actionability through real-world examples, specific price points, and clear decision frameworks. The progressive disclosure is well-handled with appropriate references to deeper materials. The main weakness is moderate verbosity—some tables and explanations could be condensed without losing value, though the real-world data points largely justify their inclusion.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is quite long (~300+ lines) with extensive tables and examples. While much of the content is genuinely useful reference material (real pricing examples, decision frameworks), some sections could be tightened. The archetype comparison table and deep dives contain information Claude could largely reason about. However, the real-world pricing data points (specific company prices, margin targets) do earn their place.

2 / 3

Actionability

The skill provides highly concrete, actionable guidance: specific price ranges ($0.99/resolution, $15-25/seat/mo), decision trees with clear branching logic, step-by-step templates for outcome pricing design, hybrid model construction steps, and real company examples with actual numbers. The troubleshooting section maps symptoms to causes to fixes.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Multi-step processes are clearly sequenced with explicit decision points. The charge metric decision framework uses a clear flowchart. The hybrid model design has numbered steps with specific guidance at each stage. The outcome pricing design template walks through 5 sequential steps with examples. The 'Before Starting' section establishes a clear discovery workflow.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill provides a comprehensive overview in the main file while clearly pointing to `references/implementation-guide.md` for advanced topics (BYOK, margin management, migration, experimentation) and `references/quick-reference.md` for checklists and benchmarks. References are one level deep and clearly signaled. The related skills table provides excellent cross-navigation.
