Design a Credit-Based Subscription Marketplace for Children's Activity Classes

Design a version of ClassPass, the single membership that lets people book classes at many different studios, for children's activities. ```hint Two customers, one participant The child takes the class, but a parent chooses, pays, books and drives, and the activity providers have to want the model too. Decide whose problem comes first. ``` ### Clarifying Questions - Which age range should the product serve: toddlers in parent-and-child classes, school-age children, or teenagers who might book for themselves? - Which activities are in scope: sports, swimming, arts, music, coding, academic tutoring, holiday camps? - Are we a new company launching this, or an existing class marketplace extending into children's activities? - Is the main goal to win parents' recurring spend, to fill providers' empty class spots, or both? ### What a Strong Answer Covers - A chosen parent and child segment with a reason, plus the provider side the marketplace depends on - Pain points specific to children's activities: trust and safety, term-based enrollment, schedules around school, siblings and transport - How the adult drop-in credit model has to change for children, for example around trial classes and skill progression - A prioritized first version with success metrics and safety guardrails - Risks such as liability, provider reluctance and local supply density, with mitigations ### Follow-up Questions - Many children's providers sell full-term enrollments rather than single classes. How would you get them to list on the platform? - What would you do in the first week after a safety incident at a partner provider? - How would you price a family plan with two children of different ages?
