Who it's for

Solo/2-person builder targeting African audiences; partnerships with local content creators, sports leagues, or educational platforms wanting recurring revenue

How to build it
1. Pick a hyper-local niche (Nollywood films + behind-the-scenes, Nigerian music videos + artist interviews, Afrobeats production courses, or regional sports—not everything). 2. Negotiate exclusive or semi-exclusive rights with 5–15 content partners (YouTube creators, indie filmmakers, music labels, coaches) who already have fans but no monetization model. 3. Build a simple SaaS: user auth, video hosting (Vimeo or Mux), recurring billing via Flutterwave/Paystack, and a basic web player. Start with web only. 4. Launch with 3 content tiers (₦500–₦5,000/month) and onboard your partner creators' existing audiences via their channels. 5. Iterate on retention (email reminders, exclusive drops, polls) before scaling to app or new niches.

Your edge as a builder from anywhere

Nigerian builders already understand local creator ecosystems and can negotiate cheaper content deals than Western competitors; Flutterwave/Paystack integration is native; zero VAT/tariff friction on digital goods; audiences in tier-2 African cities actively seek bundled, affordable local content—not Netflix clones.
