Finding companions for live music events, on a monthly subscription
- ¥480
- per month — the whole business
A consumer service where the paywall is the product: users search events, find companions, and subscribe at ¥480 a month. Sign-up friction and payment failure are the whole business risk.
Coupons handled in the subscription flow, not around it
Discount state lives in the same screen as the Stripe payment step, so the price a user sees is the price Stripe charges — no reconciliation between two sources of truth.
Account deletion built properly
A full deletion flow with templated email confirmation, backed by a Go endpoint. Easy to skip on a consumer product, and the thing users judge you on when they leave.
