Executive Summary

Coaching and tutoring institutes (roughly 2.8M businesses) suffer from fragmented operations—leads in spreadsheets, manual scheduling, poor utilization of class seats, and disjointed online/offline delivery—that cap growth and waste staff time. Owners often lack tech bandwidth to stitch tools together, so conversion and utilization remain chronically suboptimal. Build a vertical SaaS that automates the full funnel: lead capture, AI-driven lead scoring, automated follow-ups, booking/scheduling, hybrid class delivery, billing, and analytics—all wrapped in domain-specific workflows and fast onboarding templates. The product should be plug-and-play for SMBs, integrate with common payment and calendar systems, and include low-code automations so non-technical admins see value quickly. This is a large, timely opportunity: an $8.4B addressable market (2.8M coaching businesses × $3K ACV) with an 88/100 market score and an 86/100 revenue potential score, and the industry is actively hybridizing which increases demand for unified platforms. Cheap AI/automation APIs make it realistic to deliver measurable uplifts in lead conversion and seat utilization—outcomes that can materially increase revenue and justify the subscription. To win, focus on a clear competitive edge: vertical workflows, turnkey onboarding, and outcome-oriented pricing or pilot guarantees to out-position generic CRMs and course platforms. Execution risks include medium competition and SMB go-to-market costs, so prioritize fast time-to-value, integrations, and a case-study-driven sales motion to prove you can deliver the promised uplift.
