Roast my latest startup: Pricey - An AI-Powered Pricing Intelligence

As an Indie Hacker, I often find it difficult to price my products. This is why my friend and I are building a SaaS startup for software companies & founders.

💰 Pricey -- End-to-end AI-powered pricing intelligence tool that helps SaaS companies price their products.

🔹 AI recommendations based on your company objectives, competitor insights, and go-to-market pricing.
🔹 Set, experiment, and optimize your pricing with a simple no-code implementation.
🔹 Pricing done autonomously, with your supervision.

I've attached 2 images showing how it works and some features that we are building. Here's our website: https://www.cjh.design/pricey

We'd love to hear some feedback from you guys. Let us know in the comment.

Appreciate You 🙏

    I gotta be honest the Ui part looks horrible. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because you're not a developer but so many issues in terms of UI.
    UI issues

    1. Letter spacing is way too wide in some places and some places too tight it's so inconsistent it makes my eyes hurt.
    2. I really feel like the background color you used in the main page (weird greenish) is not appealing.
    3. Not sure why you use a dot at the end of each sentence in the testimonial and later don't do it.(Ex: Life saver.) Makes everything so inconsistent.
    4. Landing page itself the first part you see is so basic it could have an overview image on the right side showing how the app itself could look like.

    Now for the App itself i think the way you organize the information is wrong also and how you decide to present your product.

    In my opinion if you start a product, i think it's best to not lie about your business. Don't put fake testimonials if you don't have any, just be honest about what you are and try to showcase which features you provide. Eventually starting out with brand new startups and build partnerships is probably your best bet to grow and optimize your app.

    Testimonials should be at the bottom of the page if you still insist on having them what should come first is what your product does and how it can benefit your potential customer. "Find your best price for your SaaS product" should be at the top, for me it's the best part of that landing page which shows what your product can do.

    Use business terms don't write "It’s data for dummies (no offense)." use terms like "Data simplified anyone can understand."

    One issue i have as a product owner is that changing prices in some businesses is not easy for ongoing businesses. If they didn't build that feature from the start it could be hard for them do so.

    For example a Saas product who all of a sudden changes pricing can lead to complications.
    New users might pay less if you reduced prices which will create conflict with old users. How does your app mitigate that?

    There's a lot more i could say but it would make this post tldr which it already is lol.
