It's partly different. Users focus on solutions, not products. The pricing model must be prepared for that. $99 per site is too expensive in a market with so many free solutions. $19 may be the possible maximum, or even less
Politely, I 100% disagree. If anything, a good dev team would be able to take Forms.md and integrate that into their AI workflow to generate powerful forms.
When people want a heavyweight stuff around forms including all the integrations with Zapier, Google docs, Notion, Airtable, etc, they go Tally or Typeform for $25 per/month.
I see Forms.md as a an overpriced and less capable solution. For that kind of value, even with everything you enumerated, I can't expect users paying $99 for each form website. When I consult startups, I repeat guys: fast-growing AI code generators and editors will push you out of the market if you don't come strong differentiated value with free and very low-priced tagged packages (< $10).
Competing on price is an ideal strategy for making a business not worth running.
Competing with free is that strategy's gold standard...minus you getting gold.
Charging enough to make business customers confident you will probably stay in business is a necessary condition for creating the trust that is the currency of good business relationships.
Or to put it another way, any business that balks at $99 is less likely to be a good customer. Price is a way of segmenting the market by filtering out businesses that don't care if you stay in business.

But it doesn't really hurt for me to try.
