			<description><![CDATA[I’m trying to figure out how to set a price for a new SaaS feature that uses a consumption-based model, but I’m stuck on how to define a fair billing unit. It feels like if the unit is too abstract, customers will get confused about what they’re actually paying for, but if it’s too granular, the invoicing becomes a nightmare.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I’m trying to figure out how to structure the pricing for my SaaS tool, and I’m stuck on whether to charge per user seat or per company. The per-seat model seems straightforward, but it feels like it actively discourages wider team adoption once a few key people are licensed. Has anyone found a good way to balance this, maybe with a tiered approach that includes a bulk discount?]]></description>
