@webwright, i guess i do not yet understand what value you have in you're business yet. are you doing this to pay the bills, create a revolution, change the world, pay your future offspring's bills, or just to create something cool?
when i was thinking enterprise, i was not thinking watchdog, big brother, but maybe a personal productivity tool for personal use offered on the enterprise level. its your tool, you can do what you want with it. when i talked to a vc at defcon, she had said that usually you price it at 20$ per user annually for an enterprise micro-app like the ones that many of us YC'ers are/ could be developing. If you sell in volume you might even sell it like zimbra did to yahoo.
as a freemium, i do not think your business is as scalable. what do the yc investors think on here? i would guess if they are going to invest, they are going to use similar rules that someone like sequoia might, and they look for billion dollar companies. what is YC looking for?
have you thought about your exit strategy? are you in it for the long haul, or for a certain amount of wealth?
