Is usage-based pricing becoming the norm for AI tools?

Hey everyone,

I've built my product around traditional SaaS pricing (monthly tiers), but I m starting to wonder if that model is getting outdated, especially with more AI-powered and compute-heavy tools entering the market.
That shift requires real architectural changes, instrumentation, metering, billing logic, and UI changes, not just pricing tweaks. It s something I m starting to seriously think about for my own product.

In particular, AI usage has real COGs (every prompt costs money), and I m seeing more platforms experimenting with usage-based models, or hybrids like SaaS base + usage + overage.

For those of you building AI or compute-intensive tools:

New ProfileSpider updates: sub-page enrichment, company profiles & more 🚀

We ve shipped a batch of new updates to ProfileSpider, and I d love to get feedback from the PH community.

What s new:

  • Sub-page scraping (Enrich): Automatically follow and extract data from related profile pages and websites for deeper enrichment

  • Company profile scraping: Extract structured data from company pages, not just individual profiles

  • More free credits: Increased the free tier to 50 credits so you can test real workflows

  • Improved AI prompts: Better accuracy and consistency in extracted profile data

  • And more: Performance improvements, cleaner outputs, and UX refinements

Why did I build Eureka?

1/   Why did I build Eureka?
Traditional knowledge is linear. Books, articles, search results all force you to read page by page. But our brains don't work that way. We think in connections, associations, and visual patterns.
2/ Eureka transforms any knowledge source into a visual, explorable map:
 Upload a PDF   Get a knowledge graph
 Enter a topic   Explore connections
 Paste a URL   See concepts visualized(on the way)
...
3/ What makes it special?
 AI guides your exploration (no need to know what to ask)
 Interactive tools on the canvas (calculators, animations)
 Knowledge graph = content script (generate articles/videos instantly)
4/ Perfect for:
 Educators creating teaching materials
 Professionals learning new domains
 Content creators seeking structure
 Anyone building a knowledge base
5/ Try Eureka today and let me know what you think! What topic would you explore first?
