How outcome bounties get priced: 20% of $1M enterprise value, half at risk over 8 weeks
curious_vii · x · 2026-10-22
The author shares the pricing model for their outcome bounty business:
- Each bounty runs on a roughly eight-week countdown clock.
- If the outcome is worth $1M in additional enterprise value to the sponsor, they charge 20%.
- Half is at risk: $100K upfront, $100K upon success.
A concrete example of outcome-based pricing that ties AI service fees directly to enterprise value, sharing risk between provider and sponsor.
