What it does

Design pricing models and analyze willingness-to-pay via Van Westendorp PSM

Best for

Commercial/CMO teams validating willingness-to-pay with PSM data and translating it into a defensible pricing model + tier structure.

Inputs
  • · Pricing brief (market, customers, value drivers)
  • · Van Westendorp survey responses (≥4 WTP questions, ideally N≥100)
Outputs
  • · Recommended pricing model (subscription/usage/value/freemium/hybrid)
  • · Range of Acceptable Prices (RAP)
  • · Good/Better/Best tier packaging with anti-pattern detection
Preconditions
  • · Market context and customer data available
  • · Survey data with ≥30 respondents for statistical validity
Failure modes
  • · N<30 survey responses produce unreliable PSM results
  • · Missing value drivers prevent selecting value-based pricing
  • · Survey data mismatch (e.g., only 2 WTP questions instead of 4)
Trust signals
  • · Implements peer-reviewed Van Westendorp 1976 methodology
  • · Outputs Range of Acceptable Prices (RAP) with Optimal Price Point (OPP)
  • · Anti-pattern detection: decoy tier, feature dump, no upgrade trigger
