I am working on Baduk Teacher, which makes having Go lessons (the board game) across different languages possible. The highest level of human Go is predominantly in Korea, China, Japan and Taiwan. Western world is catching up, but the gap is still very huge.

I think the main reason is that the West has quite limited access to pro-level teachers (similar to how chess is like in Asia, just the other way round). Most pro-level Go teachers in Asia do not speak/read any foreign languages (e.g. English), so I want to remove the language barrier and make high level of Go teaching more accessible to the Western world (so that the Go population there will increase). Several European users used it and the feedback was good (and recurring purchases). The translation part is working quite well (Go-specific domain translation), and I hope it will help more foreign Go enthusiasts improve their game.
