Ehsan's Analysis
HealthTech ARPU spans a wider range than any other vertical: $5/month for consumer wellness apps to $50,000+/month for enterprise clinical platforms. The median is meaningless — what matters is the relationship between ARPU and the clinical/business value your product delivers. A radiology AI tool that saves 15 minutes per scan for a radiologist billing $300/hour saves $75/scan. If the hospital processes 1,000 scans/month, the value created is $75,000/month. Pricing at $5,000/month (7% of value) is underpriced. Pricing at $50,000/month (67% of value) is aggressive but defensible. The healthtech ARPU framework: quantify the clinical time saved OR revenue generated by your product, and price at 15-25% of that value. This "value-based pricing" is standard in pharma but rarely applied to healthtech software, where founders default to SaaS-style per-seat pricing that dramatically undervalues their clinical impact.
