Why is this different than the massive sports-merchandising part of a teams business, where they sell more stuff depending on whether they win or lose? I imagine they'd want to bet.. err i mean hedge to provide real value to their busi

We're working on the UIs portion over at Clerk ( https://www.clerk.dev ), however, we're not going all in on permission-ing and just giving folks enough "ABAC" so that we can actually power the UIs. I hope in

MAU pricing is terrible! love this idea. Heads up, I don't quite get this from your pricing page at all right now.. It says "First 900 free" and "First 100 free" without any indication of what those numbers mean.
