Founder of ComparEdge · I write about software pricing, AI tools, and security risk

I build ComparEdge and write about the software decisions teams usually regret too late: unclear SaaS pricing, AI tool ROI, cloud security gaps, LLM API costs, and vendor tradeoffs. My work is for engineers, CTOs, founders, and operators who want practical research before the sales call, not after the invoice.
