B2B SaaS Opaque Pricing Stalls Deals and Kills Buyer Velocity
532-point HN Show HN (Apr 2024) for PriceLevel, plus confirmed 2025-2026 data: 40% of B2B SaaS companies with ARR above $10M removed public pricing. Only 4% of G2 product profiles explicitly list prices. 72% of companies changed pricing at least once in 2025. Buyers cannot evaluate or budget without a sales call.
