A user-generated business concept from Nowen — not an existing product.
Build and share speech exercises with other therapists and parents, then watch edtech companies license the library you created together—with every contributor earning a share of what it's worth.
Because the best therapy tools come from therapists, not just textbooks.
How it works
Speech therapists and parents contribute therapy exercises to a free, curated library. The platform collects anonymized usage and efficacy data, then licenses the dataset to edtech platforms and SLP software vendors via API. Contributors receive profit-sharing from licensing revenue.
Story
For SLPs and parents, who need age-appropriate, diagnosis-specific speech exercises but lack a curated library, the app crowdsources and curates therapy exercises with usage data, free forever because the anonymized exercise library is licensed to edtech and SLP software vendors with profit share back to contributing therapists
Payer
Edtech platforms and SLP software vendors pay $2K-5K/mo for API access to the exercise library and usage analytics; they are buying the licensable dataset that the SLP community creates, with 20% revenue shared back to contributors
Asset
Curated, crowdsourced speech therapy exercise library with usage and efficacy data; community trust from profit-sharing model
Revenue potential
We estimate around 250 reachable enterprise buyers comprising edtech platforms, SLP software vendors like SLP Now and Sprypt, and large school district systems seeking exercise libraries and usage analytics. Monthly pricing at $3,500 sits mid-range in the stated $2K-5K target. Market penetration of 2% low, 6% mid, and 12% high reflects the challenge of displacing incumbent content relationships and proving ROI on anonymized datasets over multi-year sales cycles. We assume 80% capture rate because the 20% profit-share to contributing therapists reduces net revenue, though the business retains most of the licensing fee.
Competition Competitive
The speech therapy software space has established players like SLP Now and Sprypt serving SLPs and districts, but these focus on practice management and content subscription models. The evidence shows existing infrastructure for therapy resources but no visible dataset licensing or profit-sharing models, suggesting room for a community-driven marketplace approach.

Wedge
Community-driven profit-sharing model where contributing SLPs earn revenue from licensed datasets, differentiating from traditional subscription software that treats therapists only as customers rather than co-creators with economic upside
