Machaxi

The Machaxi story of ‘The Founder’

Machaxi is a sports & fitness tech start-up established in 2019 to bring Academies, Players, Parents, and Coaches together in India. CO-Founder Tushar Raj is a sports enthusiast, and his passion for sports led him to establish a sports academy in Bangalore. Tushar’s background as a strong badminton player and his experience in the sports industry as a player, coach, academy owner, and parent allowed him to understand the pain points of players, coaches, and parents. 

Challenge

The main challenge was to create an app that could seamlessly integrate three different types of users (players, parents, and coaches) to access features such as progress tracking, attendance tracking, tournament management, and payment processing. 

Solution:

Auriga IT approached the Machaxi project by first understanding the client’s requirements and studying the target audience. The team then began developing a website where users can book trials and buy coaching and playing plans.
