Run Van Westendorp Models in Claude Desktop

The `validate_pricing_strategy` tool forces you to stop guessing and start running math. You feed your customer interview data into Claude, and the server calculates the exact intersection of your too-cheap and too-expensive curves. It rejects any pricing model based purely on what another company charges because their unit economics do not apply to your infrastructure. When you use the Desktop app, you can point the server at local spreadsheets containing your survey results. The agent reads the raw responses, applies the Gabor-Granger methodology, and returns the optimal price point. If you charge $25 when your target segment accepts $49, the tool flags the revenue you left on the table.

Expose Phantom LTV/CAC Ratios

Calling `validate_pricing_strategy` stops you from lying to your board about customer lifetime value. Most founders calculate LTV without factoring in gross margin, creating a fake ratio that hides cash burn. Claude runs your raw CAC and ARPU through the server to adjust for compute and support costs. If your gross margin sits below 70%, the server throws a warning. It recalculates your payback period based on the actual cash retained per user. You get a clinical breakdown of your unit economics directly in the claude.ai chat interface before you finalize the new pricing tiers.

Fix Broken Packaging Triggers with an MCP Server

Triggering `validate_pricing_strategy` audits your feature fencing to ensure you actually capture enterprise value. You paste your proposed tier structure into Claude, and the server checks for structural flaws like giving away 95% of features in the free tier. It identifies exactly where you need to place the upgrade friction. The server scans for anti-patterns like hiding enterprise pricing behind a sales call. It forces you to define clear upgrade paths based on usage volume or specific needs like SSO and audit logs. Your AI client helps you restructure the tiers so freelancers pay for what they use and large teams pay for the coordination value they extract.

Open your claude_desktop_config.json file. Add the server command under the mcpServers key and restart the application.

Yes. Go to Settings, click Integrations, and paste the remote MCP server URL to start validating your packaging.

Seat count rarely correlates with the value your product delivers. The tool forces you to find a metric like API calls or storage that scales with customer success.

The server flags your unit economics as unsustainable. It will prompt you to either lower your acquisition costs or increase your gross margin.

This MCP server processes your raw ARPU, CAC, and gross margin figures. Claude Desktop runs the calculations locally via standard input/output, meaning your unit economics never hit a third-party API.
