Problem

Freelancer coaches (estimated 100-300 active) offering coaching for games like PUBG and League of Legends recruit students via KakaoTalk and Discord, collect fees through bank transfers, and handle no-show and refund disputes personally. Each coaching session requires 20-30 minutes of administrative work, and coaches invest 200+ hours per year creating YouTube videos just to build credibility and differentiate themselves from scam coaches.

Solution

A lightweight Marketplace providing an end-to-end flow: coach profile (with game API-verified match history) → student matching → escrow payment → session booking → reviews and ratings. Differentiator: automatic verification of coaches' actual match history and rank via game APIs, fundamentally blocking fraudulent coaches.

Target: Freelancer coaches in their 20s-30s doing game coaching as a side hustle or full-time, Gold-to-Platinum tier players seeking coaching
Revenue Model: Transaction fee: 10% Platform commission on coaching fees. Coach Premium Plan profile (priority listing + analytics dashboard) at ~$37/month
Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
