From Concept to Launched Platform

Par Pro needed to turn a golf training concept into a live digital platform for players and coaches. There was no existing codebase, infrastructure, or internal product team. OP Solutions delivered four interconnected products: a mobile app, marketing website, backend API, and instructor portal.

About Par Pro

Par Pro is a golf technology platform built for players who want to track performance and coaches who need tools to manage teams, run lessons, and grow their business. The product covers round tracking, advanced stat analysis, training plans, live scoring, and a marketplace for coaching services. It combines player performance tracking with coach tools, paid training services, and subscription-based revenue into a single platform.

The founders approached OP Solutions with the concept and no existing technical assets. We served as the full product development team, handling architecture, design implementation, backend and frontend engineering, cloud infrastructure, payment integration, and deployment pipelines from day one.


The Challenge

Par Pro needed to go from a product idea to a launched platform serving multiple audiences, with no internal engineering team to lean on.
No Starting Point

Par Pro came to OP Solutions with a product vision but no existing codebase, infrastructure, or internal team to build from. Everything had to be planned, architected, and built from scratch.

Cross-Platform Mobile App

The app needed to run on both iOS and Android with complex features like GPS-based shot tracking, real-time scoring, and native in-app purchases, all without maintaining two separate codebases.

Deep Domain Complexity

Golf performance tracking involves shot dispersion analysis, strokes gained calculations, club-by-club metrics, and scoring trend algorithms, all of which had to be modeled and computed server-side.

Multi-Audience Platform

The platform had to serve individual golfers, team coaches, and instructors running businesses, each with different workflows, permissions, and payment models.

The Solution

We delivered four products that work together as a single platform, each built for a specific audience and use case.
Mobile App

Expo / React Native

  • Round tracking with shot-by-shot data entry
  • Performance stats with dispersion, trends, and club breakdowns
  • Live scoring and team leaderboards
  • Training plans, drills, and personalized recommendations
  • Subscriptions and in-app purchases via Stripe and native IAP
  • Push notifications and real-time updates via WebSockets
Marketing Website

Next.js / Tailwind CSS

  • SEO-optimized landing pages for coaches and players
  • MDX-powered help center and how-to articles
  • App store download funnels and conversion pages
  • Marketplace and coaching service listings
  • Legal pages (terms, privacy, instructor agreements)
Backend API

Go / PostgreSQL / Redis

  • RESTful API with 100+ endpoints across player, coach, and admin domains
  • WebSocket server for live scoring and messaging
  • Stripe Connect for subscriptions, coach payouts, and marketplace transactions
  • AWS infrastructure (S3, RDS, Auto Scaling Groups, Secrets Manager)
  • Background workers for stat computation and scheduled jobs
  • Course database with GPS coordinates
Instructor Portal

React / Vite / MUI

  • Student and group management dashboards
  • Round reviews, leaderboards, and practice assignments
  • Calendar with bookings, service packages, and waitlists
  • Financial reports, invoices, and Stripe payout tracking
  • Training plan and drill builders with recommendation rules

Par Pro Mobile App Screens
Mobile App: Shot Dispersion, Score Trends, Advanced Stats

Built with Expo and React Native for iOS and Android. Players track rounds shot-by-shot, review dispersion patterns, and see detailed stat breakdowns including strokes gained, club performance, and scoring trends over time.

Par Pro Marketing Website
Marketing Website

Next.js site with SEO optimization, help center, and conversion-focused landing pages targeting both coaches and individual players.

Par Pro Instructor Portal
Instructor Portal

Web-based admin dashboard where coaches manage students, review rounds, handle billing, and run their coaching business.

OP Solutions' Role

We acted as the full product development team, owning every layer of the stack from first commit to production deploy.
Product Architecture

Designed the system architecture across all four products including data models, API contracts, authentication flows, real-time messaging, and multi-tenant coaching structures.

End-to-End Engineering

Built the React Native mobile app, Next.js marketing site, Go backend API, and React admin portal. Implemented Stripe payments, push notifications, WebSocket live features, and background workers.

Infrastructure & DevOps

Set up AWS infrastructure (RDS, S3, Auto Scaling Groups, Secrets Manager), CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions, rolling deploys with zero downtime, and Sentry monitoring across all environments.

Outcomes

By the end of the engagement, Par Pro had a launched platform supporting players, coaches, payments, content, and operations, all without needing to assemble an internal engineering team first.
