Not sure why it's relevant whether you heard about the startup I mentioned. The point I wanted to make is that being cheapest is a valid path to success, and that there's evidence of this. It's also more realistic to aim to be a $1M ARR business than Oracle.

I'm aware of all the MBA theory around pricing. But it doesn't matter that much when you're starting off. You need to find the right entrypoint in the market, and pricing can be one valid reason why people will end up buying your product.

A company can be successful despite being cheapest.

Betting on logical possibility is bad business strategy.
