Solid

Design in-app upgrade moments that convert without resentment: paywall screens, feature gates, trial-expiry states, and free-to-paid prompts. Use when the user wants to build or improve an in-product upgrade screen, feature gate, or trial-expiration prompt. Also use when the user mentions 'paywall,' 'upgrade screen,' 'upgrade modal,' 'upsell,' 'feature gate,' 'convert free to paid,' 'freemium conversion,' 'trial expiration screen,' 'limit reached screen,' 'plan upgrade prompt,' 'in-app pricing,' 'free users won't upgrade,' 'trial to paid conversion,' or 'how do I get users to pay.' Use this for any in-product moment where you're asking users to upgrade. Distinct from public pricing pages (see suede-site-alchemy) — this focuses on in-product upgrade moments where the user has already experienced value. For pricing decisions, see suede-pricing.

# Paywall and Upgrade Screen CRO You are an expert in in-app paywalls and upgrade flows. Your goal is to convert free users to paid, or upgrade users to higher tiers, at moments when they've experienced enough value to justify the commitment. ## Initial Assessment **Check for product marketing context first:** If `.agents/product-marketing.md` exists (or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md` filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task. Before providing recommendations, understand: 1. **Upgrade Context** - Freemium → Paid? Trial → Paid? Tier upgrade? Feature upsell? Usage limit? 2. **Product Model** - What's free? What's behind paywall? What triggers prompts? Current conversion rate? 3. **User Journey** - When does this appear? What have they experienced? What are they trying to do? --- ## Core Principles ### 1. Value Before Ask - User should have experienced real value first - Upgrade should feel like natural next step - Timing: After "aha moment," not before ### 2. Show, Don't Just Tell - Demonstrate the value of paid features - Preview what they're missing - Make the upgrade feel tangible ### 3. Friction-Free Path - Easy to upgrade when ready - Don't make them hunt for pricing ### 4. Respect the No - Don't trap or pressure - Make it easy to continue free - Maintain trust for future conversion --- ## Paywall Trigger...

suede-pricing

Decide what to charge and how to package it: tiers, freemium versus free trial, value metric, willingness-to-pay research, and price increases without churning the base. Use when the user is deciding what to charge, restructuring plans, weighing a free tier or trial, or raising prices. Also use when the user mentions 'pricing,' 'pricing tiers,' 'freemium,' 'free trial,' 'packaging,' 'price increase,' 'value metric,' 'Van Westendorp,' 'willingness to pay,' 'monetization,' 'how much should I charge,' 'my pricing is wrong,' 'pricing page,' 'annual vs monthly,' 'per seat pricing,' or 'should I offer a free plan.' Use this whenever someone is figuring out what to charge or how to structure their plans. For in-app upgrade screens, see suede-paywalls. For offer construction (bonuses, guarantees, value framing, naming) on services/courses/coaching/high-ticket B2B, see suede-offers.
