Nikita Bier consulting fee: $15,000 for 30‑minute startup advice

Nikita Bier consulting fee sparks controversy

The Nikita Bier consulting fee has ignited debate among venture‑backed founders seeking elite guidance. Intro, a platform that sells 30‑minute video calls with former X product chief, charges ↑ $15,000 per session, with a minimum of 15 minutes at $7,500 each. Only founders of funded startups qualify, and the call promises answers on growth, virality, and capital raises.

“If you’re not satisfied, you get your money back,” the site advertises.

Bier, 37, previously sold his teen‑polling app tbh to Meta for an estimated ↓ $30 million and his compliment app Gas to Discord in 2023. After a stint at Lightspeed and a brief tenure as X’s head of product, he now monetises his résumé.

Other Intro advisers include Reddit co‑founder Alexis Ohanian and Andreessen Horowitz partner Andrew Chen. The model mirrors a pandemic‑era shift toward paid expertise, a trend explored in broader industry analysis. For regulatory context, see Reuters.
