Council of High Intelligence

By 0xNyk

Put a hard decision before a panel of great thinkers and get a reasoned verdict.

What each one does

SaaS Pricing Strategy

  • Evaluates your current or proposed pricing model and recommends whether to use tiered, usage-based, freemium, or trial approaches
  • Helps you determine willingness-to-pay and design a tier structure that converts customers
  • Provides trial strategy recommendations including optimal length, what to gate, and conversion tactics
  • Generates pricing page design guidance with frameworks for annual vs monthly, social proof, and objection handling
  • Creates an actionable checklist to implement or improve your pricing with testing and iteration strategies

Council of High Intelligence

  • Picks a fitting panel of thinkers for your question, such as strategy, risk, product, or decision-making
  • Has each persona analyze the problem on its own before seeing the others
  • Runs a cross-examination round where the personas challenge each other's reasoning
  • Writes a verdict with a recommendation, vote tally, minority report, and unresolved questions
  • Offers a quick mode and a two-person debate mode for smaller decisions
