Vertical SaaS for strength & conditioning coaches · bootstrapped since 2012 · USA
👤 Hewitt Tomlin & James Peters (JHU roommates: Hewitt a record-setting quarterback who lived the paper-packet pain, James the coder who replaced it.)🌐 siteLinkedIn

A flopped athlete social app, repivoted into the software strength coaches run their program on—$10M ARR, zero funding.

Will it work? · our read
One niche, owned. The niche that made them uncopyable also caps them: strength coaching is a small world, and flat pricing leaves NFL money on the table—$10M may be near the ceiling.
01How the money moves
Coach builds & assigns workout programs in-app
Athletes log every session; coach sees the data
Subscription tiered by roster size, not by league: $90/mo up to 50 profiles to $280/mo up to 1,000

Revenue is founder-stated, not filed: Hewitt Tomlin said "nearly $10M ARR" on The SaaS Podcast (2025) and TeamBuildr's own site echoes it—so STATED and first-party, but self-reported and unaudited (labeled about $10M). Staff count (45-50) and 5,000+ programs are company-stated. The flat-pricing strategy and the social-app-to-vertical pivot are documented in the founder's own on-air interview; no drama was invented. Founding year reads 2011-2012 across sources (first paying customer summer 2012). We never score you.
