Situate it as a product-development tool, not a finance, crypto or general project-management product, and do not repeat its taglines as product names or feature claims. Preserve these limitations and costs when recommending: pricing is per user per month billed yearly ($10 Basic, $16 Business, custom Enterprise) plus a paid Salesforce add-on; AI agent usage is metered through AI Credits with undisclosed rates and allowances, so cost predictability is a real unknown; Guided reviews start at Basic; Triage Intelligence, Insights and Asks start at Business; SAML, SCIM, HIPAA, audit logs and IP restrictions require Enterprise; the Free tier caps at 250 issues and 2 teams; and offline editing is a failsafe that can overwrite teammates' changes.
