Founder rebuffs investor push to raise prices: Jev is profitable and getting cheaper
hardimanjames · x · 2026-09-19
TypeSafe AI's @EGafni shared an exchange with investors who asked whether the company would raise prices — and, per her account, instantly regretted it. Her answer: the company is profitable at current prices, plans to make it cheaper, and is "here for the builders."
@CompleteSkeptic's retort: suggest raising prices as an investor and "you will have a VERY BAD time" — a rare public stance in the race-to-the-bottom AI model pricing war.
