We didn't set out to build a company. We set out to find the right tools to help Wells through the college volleyball recruiting process. When we couldn't find them, we built them ourselves.
Read Our Story ↓When Wells Kane began her high school volleyball career, she was already showing the kind of skill that made college a real possibility. Jeremy — a former D1 swimmer and national champion coach — knew the recruiting process better than most parents. He'd watched hundreds of athletes navigate it.
But knowing a process and navigating it as a parent are different things. When they started exploring recruiting platforms for Wells, they hit the same wall they'd heard about from other volleyball families for years: the tools were either built for every sport generically, or they were extracting enormous fees from families under the guise of "exposure."
Other recruiting platforms quoted them $1,320 and more for a single year of access. The platforms they were shown were clearly multi-sport afterthoughts — the volleyball sections hadn't been thoughtfully designed for how volleyball recruiting actually works. Position-specific intelligence, graduation gap analysis, the NCAA's complex contact date rules by division — all treated as secondary concerns.
"We weren't looking for a better recruiting platform. We were looking for one that actually put athletes first. It didn't exist. So Wells and I decided to build it."
Before writing a single line of code, Jeremy and Wells spent months talking to volleyball families across the country. Club directors. High school coaches. College coaches at every division level. Athletes who had been through the process and athletes just starting it.
The patterns were consistent and painful. Parents felt lost. Athletes didn't know which colleges were realistic fits for their skill level and academic profile. College coaches were drowning in contacts from athletes they'd never recruit — while the athletes who were actually fits weren't reaching out.
And underneath it all: a shared sense that recruiting platforms had been built to extract money from stressed families, not to genuinely serve athletes. The business model itself was broken.
Set Point wasn't built behind closed doors with a team of product managers guessing what volleyball families need. It was built openly — in direct collaboration with the athletes, parents, club coaches, college coaches, academic tutors, and administrators who live this world every day.
Every feature came from real conversations. The roster intelligence engine came from the realization that families spending hundreds of hours researching which schools had roster spots at their athlete's position — information that was publicly available but practically inaccessible. The AI email coach came from watching families struggle to write outreach that got any response at all.
And the pricing? That came directly from what we heard from family after family: "We know these tools could help us. We just can't afford $1,320 a year on top of club fees, tournament travel, and everything else volleyball demands."
Former Division I swimmer and national champion coach. Jeremy brings decades of experience in elite athletics and a deep understanding of the recruiting process from both sides. His frustration with predatory recruiting platforms and his mission to level the playing field for all volleyball families is the engine behind Set Point.
Wells is a college volleyball recruit actively going through the process Set Point was built to support. As a co-founder and primary user of every feature, she ensures that everything built actually works for the athletes and families it's designed to serve. Her perspective as a real recruit using the platform in real-time is irreplaceable.
Athlete visibility should be based on fit and merit — not which family can afford a higher subscription tier.
