My honest feedback on pricing was "expensive but we would only want to apply it on non-US users." Also, we wouldn't want to have to pay for invoicing, which is honestly much much worse of a value prop. For someone with a 20% margin business, the combination of these and payments products is about 4%, or 20% of all profit.

While this is the first product since payments I have liked (so good work there) it would be nice to see Stripe work on reducing the transaction costs, particularly on the payments side. Right now for me I consider Stripe a part of the "credit card processing tax cabal". Payment processing fees are a huge tax on the world, and if stripe could help solve that and genuinely reduce it to the level it should be (nearly free marginally), I would have the utmost respect for them. I honestly think this should be the main company focus if they actually want to help customers.
