What this route helps you decide

Solve for a whole-task allowance that preserves the target contribution margin at the entered subscription price.

Inputs

  • Realized subscription price in USD
  • Typical task volume and paid conversion
  • Payment fees and other variable cost
  • Monthly fixed cost and target gross margin

Outputs

  • AI budget available per paid user
  • Sustainable whole-task allowance
  • Modeled gross margin at typical usage
  • Paid-user operating break-even

Worked example

Worked example

A $29 plan targets 75% gross margin after AI usage, payment fees, other variable cost, and a monthly fixed-cost floor.

Cost / successful task
$0.0240
Typical user / month
$2.8801
Modeled margin
80.9%

Assumptions

  • Realized subscription price is entered
  • Paid conversion is modeled explicitly
