Terrible, shortsighted comment. You're really judging the value of an informational API on absolute price per dip??
I know of a guy who has a database for which he charges $5000 per lookup. Is that not a "reasonable price?" Well, turns out it contains contract details, including expiration and re-bidding dates, for multi $-MM corporate contracts. If you're a sales team angling for a $500k commission, paying $5k to look up a single record suddenly makes sense.
(I agree that ideally the info that Eligible is selling should be available for free, in real-time, from insurance companies. Guess what; it's not. But redirect your anger, buddy: Eligible is part of the solution, not part of the problem.)
- tehwebguy 14y agoI am insanely interested in knowing more about this guy and his database. Is it very specific to a certain type of business contract?
