Stop building for "daily active users" and start building for "daily active connections."

We ve been training EloDtx, the brain behind Baeyond.

• The Results: 15.11% of our users moved from a chat to a physical event.

• The Secret: Mandatory facial ID + real-time conversation support.

• The Status: 100% of our test events were sold out.

Coming soon to Product Hunt. Get on the early access list.

My question for builders & creators:
When your "product" is essentially a protocol for trust (whether dating or professional), where do you draw the line between free access and sustainability?

Is "free forever" naive if the infrastructure costs are real?

Would love your takes especially if you ve wrestled with the "how much is too much free" dilemma in your own products.
