Pricing Question: What’s Execution Safety Worth?

Sanity check: what would you pay for something that guarantees exactly-once execution under retries/races/crashes?

Hypothetical:

Imagine a drop-in layer that sits in front of your backend and guarantees:

No duplicate irreversible actions

Deterministic replay rejection

Crash/restart safety

Clear freeze instead of silent partial failure

Basically: if something should only happen once, it happens once. Even under retry storms or concurrency weirdness.

No AI magic. Just execution correctness.

If that actually worked in your environment:

Would you pay for it?

And if yes, how would you expect pricing to look?

Per execution?

Flat monthly infra fee?

% of protected transaction volume?

Something else?

Trying to understand how teams think about paying for “risk removal” vs features.
