The initial speed of vibe coding is intoxicating:

• You describe a full stack architecture in plain English.

• An agent spins up auth, database models, and API routes in 10 minutes.

• The MVP is live before your coffee gets cold.

But once you hit the 30-day mark:

• Making a minor styling or state change causes three unrelated modules to collapse.

• The agent starts hallucinating fixes and rewriting files you never asked it to touch.

• You spend twice as long reviewing generated PRs as you would have spent writing it manually.

There seems to be a huge divide in micro-SaaS right now between:

1. Offering a generous free-forever tier to build word-of-mouth and top-of-funnel traffic.

2. Hard 7-to-14 day free trials with a strict paywall to weed out free-riders early.

I'm currently mapping out pricing for a utility-focused mobile/web app where the core daily actions cost almost nothing in compute, but predictive analytics and data exports add up.

The fear with freemium is supporting thousands of users who never convert, but the fear with hard paywalls is high bounce rates before users form a daily habit.

Most popular baby tracking apps lock basic logging (feeds, diapers, sleep) behind expensive subscriptions or clutter the screen with ads during late-night feeds.

I'm currently developing a lightweight baby tracker focused on keeping essential daily logs 100% free and ad-free, with paid tiers reserved strictly for optional predictive analytics and long-term data exports.
