Step 3 Anonymous sharing of actual post-career paths by industry and position peers

Problem

Pre-retirees aged 50-60 at large or mid-sized companies want to know 'where did people with similar careers go after leaving,' but this information circulates only through personal networks. LinkedIn adoption among Koreans in their 50s is under 5%, and job portal reviews skew toward people in their 20s-30s. As a result, they spend 6-12 months exploring career transition paths and end up choosing suboptimal options from a limited set of alternatives they're aware of.

Solution

Builds an anonymous database where contributors share 'previous industry/position/tenure → post-retirement path (re-employment, entrepreneurship, Freelancer, teaching) → current satisfaction and income level.' Searchers filter and view career transition cases from profiles similar to their own. A contribute-to-access model rewards case contributors with credits to view other cases, driving data accumulation.

Target: Workers aged 50-60 with 20+ years at large or mid-sized companies, 1-3 years before retirement, exploring career transition paths but with limited people to ask
Revenue Model: Contribute 1 case to view 5 cases Free (contribute-to-access model). Unlimited access at $3.70/month (~4,900원). Future B2B Recruitment data offering for companies and headhunters
Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
