hmmm yeah thats true. its all sales tactics and all fall for it. even the coveted sales geniuses will buy anything thats % off.
of course there are genuine offers by genuine companies. but indie AI companies its hard to believe. they are solo developers and want some traction so they try to sell the yearly subscriptions. there is a reason for that.
after they have a good number of yearly subscribers they sell the company. since we are tied to yearly subscription the potential buyers gets motivated and buys the AI company. its as simple as that.
respect to indie devs, without them we cant get these tools so cheap. I will dig deeper on this but for now, its the basic on whats happening behind the doors of 50% off on yearly subscriptions.
