I'm trying to fix this problem with Eternal Vault (https://eternalvault.app)
Today, I am launching lifetime pricing at $199/$399.
From a business perspective, everyone I talked to said it's a stupid and impulsive idea, but here's the reason why I feel it's not.
Firstly, I did the math. Ran a 50-year cost analysis. Analyzed cloud storage, infrastructure, payment fees, support, inflation.
At $199/$399, we stay profitable for decades.
The major reason why I have been thinking like this is because your will doesn't expire. Estate planning isn't Netflix. It's permanent.
And for our users, it will be less than $1/month over their lifetime for peace of mind.
My bet is that subscription fatigue is real. There's room for products that ask "does this make sense" over "does this maximize LTV."
It is bootstrapped. No VC pressure. And monthly option is still available for those who prefer that.
Am I being naive or smart? Want honest feedback.
