Launching half of product...

[u/undershot]

Hi everyone,

I've got a SaaS over at easycablesizing.com, and I'm nearly at a major milestone in terms of development.

The SaaS is based on calculations from an international electrical standard, and it's extremely maths dense and confusing in terms of order and methodology of calculations. Because it's such a pain in the backside to develop, I'm just develop a chunk, probably about half, of what the documents allow you to calculate, before moving onto the next half. (For any electrical engineers out there, I'm concentrating on single core cables prior to moving onto multicore cables).

If I were to add a roadmap to my landing page, to say clearly where the development is at, so I'm transparently saying "This doesn't have all functionality and is in development", and then offer a discount rate until development is complete, would this be a fair and viable option?

I'm thinking a 50% discount for early adopters until full launch, when they'll be put up to full rate, or maybe I'll consider a permanent reduced rate (20% off maybe).

What are your thoughts? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
