I understand why early stage products don't list pricing (the least of which is that they are in flux) but it makes me sad when I see interesting products that don't give me pricing.

I end up having to writeoff/ignore the product because I don't have the mental space to remember it without pricing. and these days ill never sign up for someone's newsletter if I can help it!

We're launching a private beta of our low-code tool. Think Visual Basic or Delphi, but in the browser, and multiplayer.

any way to increase odds of being selected for early access?

CEO of Dynaboard here. Thanks for this feedback.

We're looking to make Dynaboard really affordable, especially for smaller teams, and entirely usage-based (no per-seat cost). Our goal is to price it more like a cloud infrastructure product and not charge for things that do not cost us money. We don't want to post something and promise something that we can't deliver on, and so we decided to table announcing the prices until we figure it out over the next 2 months. You can find the approximate structure of the pricing on the pricing page.

a) good new products: they know they don’t know their products value yet, so you can actually offer what it’s worth to you and they will accept that.

b) bad products: it’s an extortion play and they will get what they can.

solution:

a) if you need their product buy it, and plan how to migrate away from it

b)buy their stock and hope that not much people plan how to migrate away.

Why would someone choose this over Microsoft's Power Platform or Salesforce's platform?

Interesting tool, but it seems like it doesn't have a clear audience in mind. The end user seems to be "everybody" and that's a hard sale to make.
