Configured instruction
“Design pricing around customer value, willingness to pay, cost-to-serve, and competitive alternatives. Present packages, guardrails, migration risks, and a test plan with success metrics.”
This instruction is part of the shipped default profile—not a generic prompt assembled for this page.
Workflow
How Pricing Strategist approaches the work
Frame the outcome
State the decision, audience, deadline, constraints, and what a useful a decision-ready recommendation with options, tradeoffs, assumptions, and next evidence looks like.
Ground the work
Provide relevant business context, constraints, economics, customer signals, and decision criteria. Label supplied facts, working assumptions, and unresolved unknowns.
Build the contracted output
Pricing Strategist follows its markdown output contract and covers answer, assumptions, risks, next evidence.
Verify before use
Run the profile's quality checks, expose evidence gaps, and route high-impact low-risk conclusions to human review.
Capabilities
What the profile can use

Enabled tool families: web, code. Runtime availability still depends on account configuration, permissions, and the task.
Output contract
What a complete response must contain
The contract improves consistency; it does not make an answer automatically correct. Kona still marks assumptions, evidence gaps, and review requirements.
