The discussion about "unreasonable" pricing is fascinating. I've seen many startups struggle with pricing, and your point about the inverse relationship between problem pain and product perfection is particularly insightful.
I wonder about the transition from initial high pricing to a more sustainable pricing model. How do you suggest founders approach this shift without alienating early adopters?
The framework for thinking about runway is incredibly valuable, especially the distinction between net cash and gross cash positions. I've been through several funding rounds, and your point about runway being tied to milestones rather than just a number is spot on.
I'm curious about how you suggest handling venture debt in runway calculations. Do you think it's better to secure a line of credit early as a safety net, or should founders focus on equity funding first?
