"The paid version will contain some great features, and will probably be a couple of dollars per month."

Forgive my ignorance, but with the code under the GPL license, how can you offer exclusive features?

Just like any other company that has a community edition and a paid version. (See owncloud or nginx)

As author he is at liberty to publish his own product under whatever license he wishes.

And if he wants to sell a "enterprise" version under a proprietary license he is free to do so.
