What to build

Ship the same core outcome with honest, flat, one-time pricing.

Complaint themes

• Price barrier

  Users want the outcome but reject the price or the pricing model.

  Money grab

  Scam

• Aggressive paywall

  Value is gated before users feel it; trust is destroyed at the worst moment.

  Charged me despite cancellation

  Trash app

• Support & responsiveness

  Users feel abandoned post-purchase; responsiveness is a cheap differentiator.

  Scam

  Pretty bad experience

• Crashes & stability

  Basic reliability is missing; this is the cheapest wedge to out-execute on.

  App won't let me re-establish my profile

  Bait and switch
