In 2022, Thomas Petit predicted hybrid monetization. In 2026, AI made it the default.

Costly AI-based features + a flooded app market = a perfect storm ⛈️

Hot take 🌶️

Most ‘activation metrics’ aren’t actually activation.

Signups, onboarding completion, session length → they measure volume, not whether users found real value or will stick around.

Here’s Daphne Tideman’s guide to better activation signals ⤵️🔗

Waiting for ✨perfect✨ before you ship is a trap.

Shipping fast doesn’t have to come at the cost of quality or user trust.

You need to know when to move fast, when to slow down, and how to learn without breaking trust.

Subscriptions aren’t one-size-fits-all 👉 power users hit ceilings, casual users won’t commit.

Hybrid monetization helps:
💡 Use subs to anchor value
💡 Add consumables to raise the ceiling
💡 And one-offs to lower the floor
