Vanta's AI vs. regular pricing line items
I am coming to appreciate how brands use subtle imagery to make their pricing plans more digestible. Vanta here does a simple check vs. sparkle to differentiate AI vs. non-AI features.

Great find! Have seen this elsewhere. Think Miro does something similar? But yeah - these subtle tweaks are fun 🙂

Key Takeaways: How to run PLG + SLG together in the AI Era
Hey y,all, happy Friday! Wanted to share my key takeaways from our Office Hours session yesterday with Mark Walker and Tina Kung from Nue.io for those that couldn't make it. For context, Mark and Tina have spent the last two decades deep in the world of CRM, Billing, and ERPs. Tina has built out billing and CPQ products at Salesforce, Zuora, and Oracle. They're building Nue to be the revenue engine for the AI era and are powering companies like OpenAI, Superhuman, Glean, and Chili Piper. Here are my favorite learnings from the session: Takeaway #1: The PLG/SLG binary is false. Most companies will operate in both motions simultaneously, and the customer experience should flow seamlessly between them. Takeaway #2: Flexibility is the meta-strategy. In the AI era, product roadmaps, pricing models, and customer needs change too fast for rigid packaging. Build for adaptability. Takeaway #3: Credits and committed spend are the bridge. They preserve PLG simplicity while enabling SLG complexity, and let customers gradually adopt new services without re-contracting. Takeaway #4: Professional services are a growth lever, not a cost center. Embed them in committed-spend contracts, make them self-serviceable, and think of them as usage products. Takeaway #5: Don’t cancel-and-replace. Whether transitioning a customer between motions or introducing new pricing, preserve continuity. Friction kills expansion. Takeaway #6: Involve finance early. The CFO’s perspective on revenue recognition, SKU management, and reporting should shape packaging decisions from the start. Takeaway #7: System architecture matters. Disconnected billing, CPQ, and self-service systems are the bottleneck. Unified platforms are required to execute these strategies. Read the full recap with for color from Mark and Tina here: https://newsletter.pricingsaas.com/p/how-to-make-plg-slg-work-in-the-ai Otherwise, have a great weekend!

@Kareem El Muslemany here's the full answer to your question (summarized of course): Question: How do you get an SLG motion to nail land-and-expand without continually building new contracts? Mark broke this into two parts. The operational piece is making sure your PLG and SLG systems are connected so you can add new products rapidly into either environment without re-contracting. He described a pattern one of their larger customers uses: they embed AI features directly into existing licenses — e.g., "you have 10 seats, you automatically get 20 AI credits; if you use more than 20, here's your pricing." This lets customers start using new capabilities immediately without a new contract, and if they want to scale up, specialized packages are available. The key insight is they're giving value to earn commitment, not gating everything behind a new SOW. Mark pointed out this only works if your billing, self-service, and CPQ systems are unified. The customer he described was switching to Nue specifically because their systems were completely disconnected, making it impossible to say "you have free credits included" when the metering and billing lived in different places. Tina added the committed spend model as a solution: customers commit to a spend amount over a period, and that committed spend can flex across subscriptions carried over from PLG, new AI tokens, professional services, and FDE hours. The customer can adjust their commitment up or down over time, and new services burn against the existing commit rather than requiring a new contract. This preserves the simple-feeling pricing model PLG customers are used to while enabling the expansion motion SLG needs.

Love this @Jesse Finch Gnehm. Awesome opportunity for anyone looking to go deep on AI pricing and work with a great leader!
What does it actually take to run PLG + SLG together?
Howdy pricing people! Nailing PLG+SLG has never been easy — and AI is only adding fuel to the fire. Next week, we're hosting an office-hours session to get into the specifics. It’ll be led by Mark Walker and Tina Kung, the team behind Nue.io. Mark and Tina have spent the past two decades at the intersection of CRM + billing infrastructure across Salesforce, NetSuite, and Zuora, seeing firsthand where quoting, billing, and revenue workflows break when PLG and SLG collide. Now they’re applying that experience to building a unified system for pricing, quoting, billing, and revenue intelligence across both motions. 📅 Thu Feb 12 | 1–2pm EST Register here: https://luma.com/6ap20xga And drop your questions in the thread!
