Nauti's Take
For small teams, the revenue forecast is mainly a signal that infrastructure demand will keep tightening: availability, energy, and cloud pricing can become the limiting factors. Before expanding an AI workflow, verify runtime costs, provider dependency, and data portability rather than assuming capacity and pricing will remain stable.
