Thank you! That’s exactly what we saw after speaking with a bunch of devs. They wanted to iterate on pricing as they all figure out how to price their AI products.

It turns out that the architectural changes that make that easier also make the tool generally easier to use for a bunch of different use cases.

In urban planning they have a name for this: the “curb cut effect”, whereby urban planners found that curb cuts, that had been made for a specific accessibility need such as people in wheelchairs, ended up being useful to all kinds of people: cyclists, people walking at night, pedestrians with weaker joints.

Devtools seem to benefit from a similar curb cut effect, where gains in a tool’s usability for one domain generalizes across many others.
