Customer value
Value Proposition
The problems Caddora solves, how the product closes the improvement loop, and who each release is designed for.
Primary market
Club golfers with a 10–28 handicap
Ireland first, then the UK, Europe, US and Australia
Short value proposition
Caddora helps club golfers understand what is costing them shots and what to do next—using the scorecards, phone and watch they already have.
01Golf history is fragmented or lost
Paper scorecards and past rounds rarely become a useful long-term asset.
Digitise and remember
Scan, validate and reconstruct a complete round history with longitudinal trends.
Personal golf memory
Emotional value, faster activation and a defensible data foundation.
02Stats do not explain what to do next
Most tools show numbers without identifying the highest-value weakness.
Diagnose in plain language
Connect scoring patterns, handicap benchmarks and evidence to one prioritised action.
Better decisions
Golfers understand what is costing shots and where improvement matters most.
03Practice is disconnected from play
Drills and coaching content are often separated from actual round outcomes.
Close the improvement loop
Turn diagnosis into a realistic weekly plan, track completion and learn from the next round.
Measurable progress
Practice becomes relevant, achievable and linked to on-course results.
04Advanced tracking adds friction
Dedicated sensors, fragmented apps and manual capture can reduce adoption.
Software-first sensor fusion
Work with a phone alone, then add Apple Watch, GPS, video and impact evidence when available.
Low-friction intelligence
Broad reach with a path to richer premium insight using hardware golfers already own.
05Coaching and equipment choices lack connected evidence
Golfers, professionals and fitters often work from separate snapshots.
Share trusted evidence
Connect improvement summaries, relative motion metrics and comparison experiments.
Confident human decisions
Better conversations with coaches, clubs and equipment partners.

Caddora Delivery Plan
Release scope, work items, progress and forecast dates update automatically when the roadmap changes.
First-year non-labour assumptions with a locked original estimate and an editable revised budget. Delivery effort is valued separately and recalculates from feature and child work-item status. Add comments to capture the reason for a change; revised amounts and the delivery-rate assumption drive investment, ROI and payback calculations. Hardware rows show the recommended device matrix using July 2026 Irish refurbished-market estimates. Target at least 85% battery health and a 12-month warranty; changes are saved automatically.
Change the default rate to apply it across every release, or use the release-specific rates in the breakdown below. Feature effort and status determine completed and remaining units. The contingency percentage is applied to both the full and remaining investment calculations.
Editable calculation
Delivery effort and investment breakdown
Release rates are editable. Effort units come from the feature estimates; earned and remaining units update with feature and child work-item status. Detailed delivery amounts are shown to cents; headline cards are rounded to the nearest euro.
| Release | Total effort | Earned | Remaining | Rate / unit (€) | Full delivery cost | Remaining cost |

Revised investment envelope

Capacity and commercial model
Course directory growth by release
Planning scenario connecting active golfers, the average number of distinct courses played each year and database growth. Active-user assumptions for Releases 1–3 use the revenue model's paid-user targets at an assumed 20% conversion rate.
| Stage | Active golfers | Courses / golfer / year | Player-course records | Annual DB growth | Projected DB | Viability signal |

Revenue opportunity and investment payback
Editable planning scenario showing the annualised revenue opportunity unlocked by each release against cumulative non-labour and delivery-effort investment.
These are scenario inputs, not forecasts. Revenue is shown as annual recurring revenue at each release exit.
Annual revenue run-rate vs cumulative investment
Cumulative investmentAnnual revenue opportunity
| Release | Revenue opportunities unlocked | Paid users at exit | Club / partner contracts | Annual revenue opportunity | Cumulative investment | Indicative payback |
|---|
Payback estimates compare the full modeled investment—including the editable blended delivery-effort rate—with the annual revenue run-rate at each release. Remaining investment responds to live status changes. Estimates exclude VAT, tax, churn, app-store fees, operating margin and payroll or contractor costs outside the modeled delivery effort.

Competitor & Putting Notes
Strategic wedge
Position Caddora as a connected improvement system, not another GPS app, AI swing analyser, or generic all-in-one golf app.
MVP centre
Make historical scorecard digitisation, round memory, scoring-pattern diagnosis, and first improvement plan the core wedge.
Watch timing
Prototype Apple Watch motion capture early because Golfshot and 18Birdies are advancing quickly in swing and putt motion intelligence.
Closed loop
Build around Capture → Understand → Practise → Play → Learn, linking scorecards, GPS context, motion, video, and completed practice actions.
Product angle
Find the putter that matches your stroke using only your iPhone.
Credible MVP metrics
Tempo, backswing time, forward-stroke time, setup shaft lean, setup lie angle, stroke consistency, and broad face-rotation tendencies.
Hardest risk
Precise face angle or closing angle from an unmounted phone may be affected by lighting, lens distortion, phone alignment, and impact-frame detection.
Validation step
Prototype with 240 fps iPhone video, compare side-on, down-the-line, and overhead setups, then benchmark results against fitting-system telemetry.
