Usage Cap on the Micro-SKU: Earning from Work

A micro-SKU is a small app slice with a test and a cap on use or edits. Without the cap, it is an open-ended gig.

The card

• The slice: one workflow a buyer can run.
• The test: the step that must work on their data or on a sample you both named.
• The cap: uses, seats, or revision rounds. You write it. This page does not.

Ten days

A demo with no buyer is the ten-day demo. Scope language is the offer sentence.

FAQ

Can the cap be unlimited?

Then it is not a micro-SKU. Say so in the offer, or add a cap.

What if the buyer's tool changes?

That is a new card if it breaks the test. Do not absorb it for free unless you wrote that.

Do I need to code?

You need the test. The tool can be no-code if the buyer can run it.
