Very cool. The product looks great!

Thanks a ton from the Bird team!

Important part:

$0; Essential features; Up to 3 users

$50 / month; All features; Unlimited reports; Up to 10 users

...

Hot take: If you’ve got a team of more than 3, and you can’t afford $50 a month for a tool, you’re doing something wrong.

It's not like you can pay infinite tools at $50 a month. And if you don't care at all it's unlikely you're there to stay

True (to be fair, I did say it was a hot take :) ). But assuming this is a salaried team at a cost of $150k per employee, a $50 per month expense amounts to 0.4% of salary.

You're right though, it can add up quickly. Do that 20 times and you're at nearly 10% overhead. It's also a big assumption that the team is salaried. It might be a team of founders, or an open source project.

Ultimately you just need to decide which SaaS solutions are most important to your team.

I would say that it’s also about team output. By getting rid of a productivity tool, you will decrease expenses, but simultaneously productivity and therefore revenue will suffer.
