Regional pricing makes sense for products that don’t have ongoing costs or where most of the input cost can be offset by local labor. You’re not buying server racks nor electricity at 1/3 of the price to serve poorer markets

AI pricing is not mainly about cost, it's about market realities, i.e., charging exactly the sweet spot to maximize profit.
