I've enjoyed Priceonomics blog posts and will probably get the book. Anyone remember when this was a pricing service startup though? Did they pivot to writing?


Here's an explanation of the move to data services and writing articles and blog posts.

Did you even read the OP? They explain it.


No, they don't. Their data crawling business is a pivot as well so it explains nothing about the former pricing service.


Has anyone jumped into the pricing service niche? I liked the pricing as well.


Black Locus, from Austin TX, was acquired by Home Depot for dynamic pricing [1].
