If you ever add skill-based filters, I got surprisingly good mileage from checking player form and matchup stats on tennisdata.app while organizing local hits. It helped me understand how people actually play rather than just what level they claim, which made matching smoother. Could be handy if you plan to add optional performance insights for users who want more reliable partner pairing.
This is awesome, congrats on nearing 2000 users! That's a fantastic milestone.
I'm especially impressed that you pivoted based on user feedback. I'm really curious: what has been your single most effective user acquisition channel for getting these first 2000 users?
Thanks! We thought flyers at physical courts would be our main channel, since our potential users often already play tennis and need courts to do so. After numerous attempts we rejected the hypothesis. It's the good old SEO and social media that works. We've been at it since 2024 so I'd argue we haven't figured out our main marketing channel yet. Working on it though!

Do you know who plays tennis in your neighborhood?
- 600 people in your zip code already play tennis. Another 600 are waiting for the right partner.
- Connect, pick a time, choose a court, and go hit.
