What is Buzzy Compute-Unit Margin Model?
“Compute units × client apps → agency margin”
Buzzy's pricing is based on compute units: 1 unit for $20/mo (web only) or $50/mo (web + mobile). Agencies can package these units into client offers like the Buzzy Starter Web App at $340/mo, which uses 1 compute unit plus 20h setup and 2h/mo maintenance. The margin scales by adding more client apps on the same compute unit? No, each app requires its own compute unit. Instead, margin grows by reselling higher-tier plans (e.g., Medium at $50/mo) to clients who need mobile, or by bundling multiple units for multi-app clients. For example, an agency serving a QSR chain could deploy separate apps for feedback, inventory, and scheduling, each on its own compute unit, charging $340/mo per app while paying $50/mo per unit. The key is to match client willingness to pay with the compute unit cost, ensuring at least 6x markup to cover setup effort and support.
