In this episode of Unpack Pricing, Scott Woody, co-founder and CEO of Metronome, talks with Matan-Paul Shetrit, Director of Product at Writer, a full-stack generative AI platform for enterprises. They explore the evolving landscape of AI pricing, where rapid model advancements and enterprise adoption create pricing challenges. Matan (ex-Brex, Square, Stripe) shares why per-token pricing falls short for enterprises, how Writer is shifting to a hybrid model, and the importance of predictability for adoption. Matan also shares how AI transformation mirrors the cloud migration journey, how to navigate the tension between product and GTM teams, and why tackling high-value but "mundane" workflows is key to multi-year renewals.
