Who it's for

Solo developer or 2-person team building a mobile-first SaaS; selling to fitness-conscious professionals (25–45) in Africa & diaspora who struggle with sleep quality or stiffness

How to build it

1. Record or license 15–20 short video routines (3–10 min each) focused on pre-sleep stretching, lower back relief, and neck tension — hire a local physiotherapist or yoga trainer for credibility and content. 2. Build a React Native or Flutter app with a simple routine library, progress tracker, and daily reminder notifications — no complex AI needed. 3. Set up Stripe + Flutterwave for recurring billing (monthly/yearly tiers); offer a free 3-routine trial to reduce signup friction. 4. Launch a simple landing page on Webflow + run targeted ads (TikTok, Instagram) to wellness communities, night-shift workers, and remote professionals in Nigeria and East Africa. 5. Gather user feedback on which routines drive retention, then add beginner/intermediate/advanced filters and a basic 'streak' gamification feature.

Your edge as a builder from anywhere

Fitness SaaS from Africa is rare; you can price 30–50% lower than Western competitors (₦2,500–5,000/mo vs $15–20/mo equivalent), undercut aggressively in diaspora communities, and hire world-class physios and coaches locally at 1/3 Western cost. Sleep + flexibility is underserved in African wellness marketing — low competition. Payment via Flutterwave + local methods matters for your core market.
