## 💡 RISK FACTORS
1. **API changes** - Platforms update APIs, requires maintenance
2. **Competition** - Others may build MCPs (first-mover advantage matters)
3. **MCP adoption** - Protocol is new, adoption curve uncertain
4. **Support burden** - More MCPs = more support tickets
5. **Churn** - SMBs churn faster than enterprise
## 🚀 UPSIDE FACTORS
1. **Network effects** - More MCPs = more visibility = more customers
2. **Agency deals** - One agency = 10-50 client accounts
3. **Enterprise tiers** - Custom pricing for large deployments
4. **Partnerships** - Platform partnerships (like being listed in app stores)
5. **Upsells** - AI agents, custom integrations, consulting
