I have recently finished a program that deals with the periodic table. My chemistry teachers said that they would like to have a copy to use in class and I need to figure out what it's worth. If you think you can help, let me know what you need to know.

Practical valuation checklist for 's periodic-table app.

Key value drivers to document:

  • Buyer: who will pay (individual teachers, department, school or district).
  • Use case: demonstration, homework, quizzes, printable materials, or LMS integration.
  • Differentiators: interactivity, curriculum alignment, assessment features, export/printing.
  • Platform & deployment: web, desktop, mobile, installer complexity, browser/LMS compatibility.
  • Ongoing work: expected bug fixes, updates, support hours per year.
  • IP and third-party assets: any images, data sets or libraries that require licensing.
  • Comparables: existing edu apps, app-store listings, and school software vendors.

Steps to produce a defensible price:

  • Tally real costs: development time, hosting, documentation, and annual maintenance.
  • Research market comparables and common procurement models (per-seat, classroom, site license, subscription).
  • Choose license terms that match buyer expectations (free trial for teachers, paid institutional license).
  • Pilot in a few classrooms to measure adoption and support overhead.
  • Model prices using a simple formula: price_per_seat = (annual_cost + desired_profit) / expected_paid_seats and run low/likely/high scenarios to see sensitivity.

Packaging and cautions:

Include a short teacher guide, installation checklist, and simple license file. Confirm rights on any third-party content before charging for distribution. When selling to schools, clarify support and update commitments up front; procurement teams expect invoices, POs and clear licensing language.
