You describe how you coach in two sentences. The chat builds your booking page, your payments, and your cancellation policy. After that it runs the business while you stay on the court.
Coach is the business app for a solo tennis coach. Tell the chat your rates, your hours, and your no-show rule, and it stands up a public booking page, saves a card at every booking, and sells lesson packs that deduct themselves when a player shows up. It is not film analysis and it is not a club's court grid. It handles booking, money, and clients so you don't chase either.
You teach back to back. Between lessons you're confirming tomorrow, reminding someone they're on lesson 7 of 10, and deciding whether to charge the kid who bailed an hour before. None of that is coaching, and all of it lands on you. Most tennis software fixes the wrong half: stroke apps record your forehand, court tools book a court. Neither saves a card or charges a missed lesson.
This is the part that feels different. You don't fill out settings screens for an hour. You type one sentence and a minute later you have a link to share.
Once you're live, you run the business by typing the way you'd tell an assistant. A few simple screens (calendar, clients, money) give you the overview when you want to see it. You coach from your phone; your players book and pay from the web, no app to download.
A stroke app and Coach are not competitors. Keep filming forehands if it helps. Coach handles the part that pays you: booking, no-shows, and packs.

We've spent 15 years building and running booking systems for service businesses: online booking, payments, inventory. We took what we learned from all of that and built one thing for one person: the solo coach who lives on the court.
The 14-day trial needs a card so your booking page can take real payments from day one. First 50 coaches lock in $15/mo for life. Platform fee is 0%, you keep the lesson money. Stripe's processing fee still applies, same as anywhere you take a card.
No. Coach runs the business side: booking, payments, no-show fees, and lesson packs. If you want to film forehands, use a stroke app alongside it. They don't overlap.
A card is saved when a player books. You set the rule once (for example, half the lesson for cancellations under 24 hours). When someone misses or cancels late, the fee charges itself. You're not deciding it case by case at night.
Yes. The player sees their own pack balance any time, so there's no back and forth about whether it was 4 or 5 left. A lesson comes off automatically when they attend.
No platform fee from us, so you keep the lesson money. Stripe's standard processing fees still apply, the same as anywhere you take a card.
A few minutes. You describe how you coach in a sentence or two and the chat builds your booking page, packs, and cancellation policy. No week-long onboarding.
