Video is crazy expensive.

I know the underlying infra is complex, but these costs mean you would need a lot of capital and a very aggressive monetization strategy from the get-go to even get started, no?

In my mind I'm comparing this to Teams/Slack/Zoom and so on - in that context it is cheap, no?

Not sure if this is the right context tough.

No, you're right.

I was thinking in terms of B2C economics... $99 for 300 MAU would be crazy for a consumer startup product. $99 for 300 internal business users is completely different.
