Podcasts about Nue

In this episode, Alex Theuma and Mark Walker, CEO of Nue, discuss how AI is accelerating the pace of change in SaaS and the knock-on effect this is having on pricing and monetisation. Mark explains how Nue has become a critical part of the infrastructure powering many of the world's fastest-growing AI-native and scaled SaaS companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Jasper. Drawing on learnings from these companies, he unpacks how usage-based models, committed spend contracts, and rapid product experimentation are replacing traditional SaaS playbooks. Alex and Mark also reflect on life as an entrepreneur, scaling teams, managing stress, and the need to embrace constant change. - Why AI has disrupted product development cycles and changed how SaaS companies create value. - How faster product iteration is forcing new pricing and monetisation models. - The rise of committed spend, consumption-based contracts and experimentation at scale. - Why you should build revenue systems for the company you want to become, not the one you are today. - How AI-native startups and scaled SaaS companies are converging on the same challenges. - Why speed across product, systems and execution is now the ultimate competitive advantage.       Check out the other ways SaaStock is helping SaaS founders move their business forward:

Mark Walker, CEO of NUE, joins Jeff Mains to discuss how modern SaaS companies can transform revenue operations from fragmented systems into a unified lifecycle. With $30M in funding and customers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Jasper, NUE is redefining quote-to-cash by treating revenue as a continuous flow rather than disconnected handoffs. Mark shares insights on disrupting entrenched markets, building high-performance cultures, and why speed and flexibility have become the ultimate competitive advantages in an AI-driven world.Key Takeaways0:54 - The hidden complexity tax4:42 - Curiosity as a career compass8:59 - Skating to where the puck is going11:44 - The unified truth14:26 - The $2M discovery18:03 - Speed as strategy21:29 - Flexibility unlocks enterprise deals26:45 - The Trojan horse strategy28:09 - Productized implementation29:56 - Lightning-fast deployments38:21 - Market disruption wisdom45:47 - Culture starts at the top46:16 - NUE's three core valuesTweetable Quotes"The purpose of producing quotes isn't to produce quotes—it's to produce bills. Contracts are just a step toward invoicing and collecting money." - Mark Walker"If it takes you a year to stand up a system, how long will it take you to change it? Once you set that system up, changing it can often take longer than setting it up the first time." - Mark Walker"We have a saying at NUE: This is so hard not to love it. If you don't actually love working here, you should go." - Mark Walker"If you want to be trusted, be trustworthy. If you want to be respected, be respectful. If you want great partnership, be a great partner." - Mark Walker"The fastest-moving companies are over-indexing on what they don't know, whereas everybody else is buying systems based on what they think they know." - Mark WalkerSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Treat Revenue as a Lifecycle, Not a TransactionStop thinking of quoting, billing, and invoicing as separate steps. They're part of one continuous flow. When these systems are disconnected, you bleed 3-5% of ARR annually (per MGI research) and create unnecessary friction for customers and teams.2. Speed and Flexibility Trump Feature CompletenessIn a world where the pace of change has changed, the most critical attributes in technology partners are speed, flexibility, and time to value. Companies that can implement and iterate quickly have a massive competitive advantage over those locked into rigid, year-long implementations.3. Use a "Trojan Horse" Strategy—But Make It GoldWhen attacking entrenched markets, find a wedge product that serves as your entry point. But that wedge must be exceptional on its own merits. NUE's CPQ is so good that customers buy it standalone, then discover the billing platform inside.4. Build for Where Customers Are Going, Not Where They AreNUE targeted the hardest problems first—multi-attribute pricing, complex enterprise scenarios—because they wanted to help companies grow. If you're good at where customers are headed, small companies can use your platform to compete with giants.5. Culture Is What You Tolerate, Not What You PostValues on the wall mean nothing if leadership...

Dots Oyebolu welcomes Mark Evans, Founder and Fractional CMO of Marketing Spark. Mark shares his journey from technology journalism to advising SaaS companies on growth and strategy. The conversation focuses on why brand positioning is crucial to achieving product-market fit, how weak differentiation limits demand generation and why many companies overinvest in tactics at the expense of fundamentals.

B2B pricing is still way harder than it should be, even in 2026. In this conversation, Tina Kung, Founder and CTO at Nue.ai, breaks down why quote to revenue can take weeks, and how a flexible pricing engine can turn it into something closer to one click.You will hear how fast changing pricing models, AI driven products, and new selling motions are forcing revenue teams to rethink the entire system, not just one tool in the stack.Key takeaways• B2B quoting is basically a shopping cart, but the real complexity is cross team workflow, accounting controls, and downstream revenue rules.• Fragmented systems break the moment pricing changes, and in fast markets that can mean you only get one real pricing change per year.• AI companies often evolve from simple subscriptions to usage, services, and even physical goods, which creates billing chaos without a unified backbone.• Commit based models can make revenue more predictable while staying flexible for customers, but only if you can track entitlement, burn down, overspend, and approvals cleanly.• The most useful AI in revenue ops is not just insight, it is action, meaning it can generate the right transaction safely inside a system of record.Timestamped highlights00:43 What Nue.ai actually does, one platform for billing, usage, and revenue ops with intelligence on top02:43 Why a one minute checkout in B2C turns into weeks or months in B2B05:28 The real reason quote to revenue stays broken, fragmentation and brittle integrations08:03 How AI era pricing evolves, subscriptions to consumption, services, and physical goods12:51 Why Tina designed for flexibility from day one, and what 70 plus customer calls revealed19:42 Transactional intelligence, AI that can create the quote, route approvals, and move revenue work forwardA line worth keeping“It should be as easy as one click.”Practical moves you can steal• Map every pricing change to the downstream work it triggers, quoting, billing, revenue recognition, and approvals, then measure how many handoffs exist today.• If you sell both self serve and enterprise, design for multiple selling motions early, because the same objects can have totally different context and risk.• Treat pricing as a product surface, if your systems make changes slow, you are giving up speed in the market.Call to actionIf you want more conversations like this on how modern tech companies actually operate, follow the show on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and connect with me on LinkedIn for clips and episode takeaways.

Evaluating Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) solutions and drowning in buzzwords, vendor decks, and generic analyst reports? In this solo episode of the CPQ Podcast, Frank walks you through something he has been building for exactly that problem: the CPQ Sales Report from Novus CPQ. This is not a sales pitch. Think of this episode as a reference guide you can come back to whenever you need to shortlist CPQ vendors, support a sales cycle, or explain a solution to your internal stakeholders. You'll learn: What the CPQ Sales Report is and who it's for (buyers, system integrators, and CPQ vendors) What's inside each 20+ page, vendor-specific report and how it adds value to real sales cycles When to use a report for shortlisting, internal alignment, business cases, and partner enablement How the CPQ Sales Report differs from the CPQ Briefing Subscription Which vendors are currently covered: camos Software, Bit2win, XaitCPQ, Engineering Intent, SAP (CPQ-related), Salesforce Revenue Cloud Advanced, Nue.io – plus an upcoming report on Revalize Frank also shares what's new (including the updated XaitCPQ report), what's coming next, and how these reports stay vendor-neutral, fact-based, and practical—so you can make better CPQ decisions without rewriting everything yourself.

Send us a textGuest: Mark Walker, CEO at Nue.io -- SaaS pricing isn't breaking because of AI — it's breaking because most revenue systems were never built for the speed and complexity of today's models.In this episode, Mark Walker, CEO of Nue.io, joins host Ken Lempit to unpack why modern SaaS and AI companies are abandoning legacy CPQ and billing stacks for a flexible, unified revenue infrastructure built for rapid change.Key highlights:Why legacy CPQ + billing can't support modern SaaS pricingHow committed consumption + bank-billed models are reshaping monetizationWhy speed of configuration is now a GTM advantageWhat RevOps must rethink as pricing experiments explodeHow elite teams thrive on hard problems and high-velocity executionIf you're a B2B SaaS founder, CRO, CMO, or RevOps leader navigating complex pricing models, upgrading your revenue stack, or preparing for next-gen AI monetization, this conversation will change how you think about scaling.---Not Getting Enough Demos? Your messaging could be turning buyers away before you even get a chance to pitch.

A story about speed as strategy—and why saying no to billion-dollar deals built a stronger company.This episode is for SaaS founders who feel stuck between landing big logos and building what actually scales.Most SaaS companies don't fail because they lack ambition. They fail because they chase the wrong customers.Mark Walker, CEO of Nue, took a different path. With decades in enterprise software—ERP, CRM, NetSuite—he joined Nue in March 2022 when it was pre-revenue and a "science experiment." He made one decision that changed everything: focus on speed over complexity. When Nvidia came calling, he said no. When asked to build for everyone, he picked his peers instead.And this inspired me to invite Mark to my podcast. We explore why treating speed as your core product creates defensible value. Mark shares his philosophy on saying no to wrong-fit customers, building modular systems that compress implementation from years to weeks, and why honesty beats hype when competing against legacy vendors. You'll discover why OpenAI went live in 8 weeks and Anthropic in 12—and what that speed signals to the market.We also zoom in on two of the 10 traits that define remarkable software companies:They acknowledge they cannot please everyoneThey aim to be different, not just betterMark's story is proof that when you optimize every decision for customer speed, saying no to complexity becomes your competitive advantage.Here's one of Mark's quotes that captures his approach to market focus:"If you want to be great at something, you have to be bad at something else. There are no NFL linemen who are also World Champion marathoners.
