Cadi is transforming the traditional golf industry with the first autonomous solution built for golfers. You can now demo clubs right on the course whenever you want. When you find the perfect club, it can be purchased instantly through our self-service kiosk and e-commerce platform. There are no salespeople and no hassles, just golfers with freedom to play the newest equipment. Our team and technology are paving the way for a new hybrid omnichannel that changes how golf products are sold and distributed for years to come.

Currently, Cadi's Application and eCommerce platform are in development phases. The physical Cadi Kiosk is currently available on the market.

Today, the only two options to purchase products are visiting a traditional retail store or buying online. Now we are seeing the world change as the COVID-19 pandemic accelerates the shift to more online shopping than ever before. This shift significantly threatens sporting goods because many products, such as golf clubs, we believe are not best sold online.

The above stats are from internal research

Golfers need to feel and demo products they wish to buy online. Unfortunately, the majority of golf courses do not effectively sell golf products. The current retail experience only offers unrealistic indoor trials or infrequent demo days. It is no surprise that 90% of golfers prefer to demo products on a golf course or driving range before buying equipment. The result is two-thirds of customers are unhappy with their purchase within 14 days with no option for money back.

In the modern retail world automation is no longer a choice, it is a necessity. Cadi is building the solutions...

Currently, Cadi's Application and eCommerce platform are in development phases. 

Cadi’s platform is the combination of an autonomous, patent-pending kiosk and an integrated online marketplace. We combine the best of online shopping with the benefits of traditional retail stores. Currently, Cadi's Application and eCommerce platform are in development phases. The physical Cadi Kiosk is available on the market.

Our technology leverages a golfer’s most desired location, golf courses, to create a network of kiosks. Our kiosks give golfers the freedom to demo, compare, and purchase products at their convenience. Cadi uses Big Data and Artificial Intelligence to curate product selection and create a personalized experience for each customer.

This is a demo

Cadi’s online marketplace gives golfers 24/7 access to our platform. A fully connected omnichannel means golfers can interact using any device from any location.

Cadi uses the best of e-commerce and product demos to create an entirely new retail experience. Our omni channel platform allows you to shop from any device then visit your local course to demo products. You can be playing with golf’s top brands and newest equipment at the push of a button.

Cadi makes it extremely simple to purchase when you are ready. Whether online or in-person, Cadi leverages golf courses to create micro fulfillment centers that fulfill on-demand orders and expedite shipping for online orders. It is instant gratification like the golf industry has never had before.

To date, Cadi has sold products to over 6,000 customers. We have surpassed $1M in gross sales over the past 18 months and double sales from 2019 to 2020, year to date. Our hope is that our next funds will lead to faster expansion and higher growth in 2021.

We have 63 courses signed up to deploy our technology. This equates to significant potential recurring revenue and access to 250,000+ golfers annually. We secured strategic partnerships with leading golf course operators and equipment manufacturers. We are granted exclusive access to locations, customers, and inventory supply. Cadi is currently in conversations with more potential partners and venues we hope to announce soon.

We recognized that the golf industry is heavily concentrated with little innovation for the past 20 years. Top retailers are either traditional brick and mortar or exclusively e-commerce. No clear leader in the market is seamlessly integrating physical and virtual shopping. This is a large and fast-growing opportunity. Cadi has significant advantages with patent-pending technology and a first-to-market strategy.

These are not actual locations that currently exist.  The physical Cadi Kiosk is currently available on the market.

Our target kiosk locations are high-traffic public courses in areas with low seasonality and a high density of courses. 80% of all golf courses in the U.S. are public golf facilities, the industry’s “forgotten retail channel” where we aim to expand. We are also pursuing opportunities at entertainment venues, driving ranges, and new-age shopping malls. With the popularity of venues such as TopGolf, golf is seeing record rounds of play and increasing participation at all levels.

We offer two primary revenue sources: membership subscriptions and product sales. Cadi will offer a subscription plan, popularized by Amazon Prime, that unlocks benefits and service only available to Cadi members. Our benefits and long-term value to golfers come from leveraging our kiosk locations and unique relationships with courses and suppliers.

The Online marketplace and the monthly membership fee is in development and has not launched and may never launch. The Cost of Kiosk is an estimate and may change in the future.

Cadi’s platform is built for Big Data. Big Data powers order fulfillment from kiosks all over the country. We continuously analyze the data to learn customer behaviors, sell more products and deliver game-changing logistics not seen in golf retail. That data is shared with product manufacturers to create stronger partnerships and even better experiences for members.

Patent-Pending Kiosk Technology

Cadi’s intellectual property protects the most important features of our kiosk. Our proprietary technology tracks inventory from sourcing to selling. Cadi has complete visibility of products as they move anywhere through the supply chain.

We believe Cadi is positioned to be a global leader in sporting goods and capitalize on the accelerated shift to automation in retail. Our goal is that by 2025, Cadi will have over 1,000 installed locations with full connectivity to our online marketplace.Our hope is that Cadi’s membership will thrive with a strong community of over 1 million members. We believe that once Cadi has been installed on a golf course it will be difficult for any competition to replace our platform.

In the future, Cadi will expand our product offering to other comparable sporting goods industries such as tennis, baseball, hockey, skiing, and biking. Cadi’s technology platform is gearing up to serve and thrive in the $126 billion recreational sports industry.

Our CEO, Tyler Gottstein, and co-founder, Matt Ahrens, are leading this golf retail revolution. Each brings valuable experience in logistics, finance, automation, entrepreneurship as well as a deep love for sports.
