<p><b>Startup description</b></p><p>My platform is a lightweight video analysis tool for amateur sports coaches.</p><p>It allows coaches to upload match videos, create clips, annotate them, organize them into playlists, and share them easily with players or teams — without the complexity or high cost of professional analysis software.</p><p>The project started from a real personal need: as an amateur coach, existing tools were either too expensive, too complex, or designed for professional analysts. My platform was built to focus on simplicity, speed, and affordability.</p><p><b>Key highlights</b></p><ul> <li><b>Stage:</b> Early revenue / validated MVP</li> <li><b>Target market:</b> Amateur &amp; semi-amateur coaches</li> <li><b>Monetization model:</b> Credits-based (1 credit = 1 clip), with subscription and hybrid models planned</li> <li><b>Positioning:</b> High value-for-money alternative to professional tools</li> </ul> <p><b>Core metrics:</b><b></b></p><ul> <li>Revenue (last 2 quarters): <b>€200+</b><b></b></li> <li>Paying users: <b>20</b><b></b></li> <li>Total users: <b>2,200+</b><b></b></li> <li>Monthly active users: <b>~30</b> (≥1 clip created/month)</li> <li>Infrastructure cost:AWS: <b>&lt; €5/month</b></li> <li><b></b>MongoDB: Free tier.</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><p>Solo founder project.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><ul> <li><b>Frontend:</b> React-based SPA</li> <li><b>Backend:</b> Node.js</li> <li><b>Database:</b> MongoDB</li> <li><b>Storage &amp; infra:</b> AWS</li> </ul> <p>The architecture is optimized for low operational costs and easy scalability.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>Growth so far has been 100% organic and founder-led:</p><ul> <li>Word-of-mouth among coaches</li> <li>Direct outreach to clubs and federations</li> <li>Early partnerships with:Sports clubs Federations Coach associations</li> <li>Clear niche positioning (amateur-first)</li> </ul> <p><b>Results:</b><b></b></p><ul> <li>2,200+ registered users</li> <li>~30 monthly active users</li> <li>First paying customers without paid marketing</li> <li>Partnerships opened that can unlock B2B / bulk licensing</li> </ul> <p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><ul> <li>Revenue (last 6 months): <b>€200+</b><b></b></li> <li>Paying users: <b>20</b><b></b></li> <li>MRR: Early-stage / unstable</li> <li>Operating costs: <b>~€5/month</b><b></b></li> <li>Net profit: Positive (infrastructure fully covered)</li> </ul> <p>This is an early but proven revenue signal, with costs already under control.</p><p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>Currently short due to extremely low operating costs.</p><p>Buyers can accelerate ROI by:</p><ul> <li>Introducing subscriptions (monthly / annual)</li> <li>Selling bulk licenses to clubs and federations</li> <li>Adding usage-based tiers (storage, clips, playlists)</li> <li>Leveraging existing distribution channels</li> </ul> <p>Even modest monetization improvements would significantly increase revenue due to near-zero marginal cost.</p><p><b>Startup assets</b></p><ul> <li>Full source code (frontend &amp; backend)</li> <li>Domain and brand<b></b></li> <li>Deployed cloud infrastructure</li> <li>Credit-based billing logic</li> <li>2,200+ user accounts</li> <li>Early paying customer base (20 users)</li> <li>Active partnerships with clubs &amp; federations</li> <li>Large email list: Early-stage</li> <li>Social media audience: Not developed yet.</li> </ul> <p><b>Risks</b></p><ul> <li><b>Conversion to paid users </b>→ Mitigation: Pricing not optimized yet, no subscriptions, no onboarding funnel.</li> <li><b>Founder dependency</b><b></b>→ Mitigation: Clean, standard tech stack, documented workflows.</li> <li><b>Early-stage revenue</b><b></b>→ Mitigation: Strong usage signal + partnerships enable B2B growth.</li> <li><b>Competition from professional tools</b><b></b>→ Mitigation: Different target market, simplicity-first positioning.</li> </ul> <p><b>Summary</b></p><ul> <li>Real users and <b>real revenue</b>, not just an idea</li> <li>Extremely <b>low operating costs</b><b></b></li> <li>Clear product–market fit signal in a defined niche</li> <li>2,200+ users with no paid acquisition</li> <li>B2B expansion already started (clubs &amp; federations)</li> <li>Large upside through pricing, onboarding, and distribution.</li> </ul> <p>My platform is ideal for a buyer looking for a <b>capital-efficient SaaS</b>, early traction, and strong growth potential in amateur sports.</p><p>✅ $240 in Annual revenue</p><p>✅ 20 customers</p><p>✅ Business model: Credits</p><p>✅ Built with Node.js, AWS, React, MongoDB</p>
