How it works.

  1. 01

    Describe your offer

    In one message: what the buyer gets and how long it takes, the current price with currency, VAT and how it is charged, your costs and hours per sale, who buys and who decides, and what the buyer gets out of it. Plus any real data, such as how many of your last enquiries said yes and what they said about price. It never invents competitor prices or market rates, and rough figures are marked as estimates.

  2. 02

    Five buyers

    Five personas built from your description, one line each. You see them and can change them before it goes on. The labels adapt to your offer, but it always includes these five.

    • 01The budget buyerNeeds it to be as cheap as it can reasonably be.
    • 02The busy buyerWants it done and off their desk.
    • 03The cautious buyerFears a bad result and looks for reasons to trust.
    • 04The buyer who tried it themselvesHas done it before and knows what it takes.
    • 05The best fit buyerThe customer you wish you had more of.

    The four questions, blind

    Each persona gets the offer, the value in words, the delivery time, and the price unit, currency and VAT basis. It never gets your current price, your costs or another persona's answer, so it is not anchored. Each names a price for the four classic questions and says what would make a higher price feel fair. The answers are printed as simulated.

  4. 04

    The buy range

    It sorts each column and takes the middle value to draw the buy range and the sweet spot as a text bar, with your current price and your floor marked. Then a plain verdict: underpriced, about right or overpriced, with the gap in currency and percent. The floor is your costs per sale plus your hours times your hourly figure, and it says if the price is under it. If your own numbers point another way than the simulation, it shows both and relies on your real data.

  5. 05

    Good, better, best

    Three packages built from your offer and what made a higher price feel fair: name, price, what goes in and who it is for. Better is the one most buyers should pick, and best never adds features you cannot deliver. Every package stays at or above its own floor. Then price page wording of at most 80 words, with no invented testimonials, guarantees or numbers.

  6. 06

    Test it on the next five enquiries

    Quote the new price the same way to your next five enquiries and write down the price, yes or no, and their exact words about price. Four or five yes means raise again, two or three means hold, and zero or one means compare their words with the fair if answers before lowering. Five enquiries is a small test, and it says so.

What you get back.

Five buyer answers, a buy range, a verdict, three packages and a test plan. This is the shape the buyer answers and the range come in.

The formatNot a real result

Each buyer, at most 80 words

Too cheap
Below this price I would doubt the quality.
Bargain
A great deal, I would buy without thinking.
Expensive
I would still buy, but I would think hard.
Too much
I would not buy at this price.
Fair if
What would make a higher price feel fair.

The buy range

Buy range
From the middle too cheap price to the middle too expensive price.
Sweet spot
From the middle bargain price to the middle getting expensive price.

Your current price and your floor are marked on the bar.

Printed as simulated. Answers in your language and currency.

A simulation, not a market.

Five simulated buyers are a persona's guesses, not research, and the verdict says so. It never invents competitor prices, market rates, statistics, testimonials or results. If your own numbers, such as quotes accepted, point another way, it shows both and relies on your real data.

[ADD: price of the smaller plan]

It is honest, not kind: if the price is clearly too low, it says so plainly. It is not tax, accounting or legal advice, and for VAT, contracts or bookkeeping it points you to an accountant. It never asks for card numbers, passwords or ID numbers. It is not for real market research, competitor price lists or pricing physical products in retail.

Install.

Claude Code

  1. 1Download the zip and unzip it.
  2. 2Put the price-check folder in ~/.claude/skills/ for every project, or in .claude/skills/ inside one project.
  3. 3Say "check my price" or type /price-check, with your offer, current price, costs and who buys.
unzip ~/Downloads/price-check.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/

Best here. The five buyers run as separate agents that never see your current price, so they are not anchored.

Claude.ai

  1. 1Download the zip. Keep it zipped. Code execution must be on (Settings › Capabilities).
  2. 2Go to Customize › Skills, click +, then upload the zip.
  3. 3Describe your offer, current price, costs and who buys, and ask Claude to check your price.

There are no agents here, so Claude plays the buyers one at a time and says it already knew your price, so the test may be anchored.

Price it on purpose.

The real answer comes from your next five enquiries. Bring their words back and it can run the check again with real answers.
