AI Monetization Strategy: From POC to Proof of Value with AWS
POC is dead. Proof of Value is the new standard for AI startups. In this episode, AWS’s Jennifer Grün reveals the AI monetization strategy that separates demos from businesses.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
– Why hybrid pricing models (subscriptions + credits) outperform per-seat SaaS in AI
– How to replace Proof of Concept with Proof of Value frameworks that deliver ROI fast
– The ROI storytelling metrics (CLV, CAC, churn, ARR) that boards and VCs actually believe
– The infra levers (batch vs provisioned throughput) that protect GenAI unit economics
– How to package compliance features (SSO, audit logs, privacy tiers) for enterprise upsell
