Founded by Tarun Saini and Gaurav Singhvi, Vidyakul provides after-school e-learning for students of state boards in vernacular languages. It enables teachers to create online courses for K-12, JEE, NEET, AIIMS in Tier II and Tier III cities.
The Gurugram-based startup is currently delivering education in four languages for 1 million students from 10 states. It offers live lectures and pre-recorded video courses (from Class 9-12) for six state boards. The course content has been developed by local academic experts who have analysed state board exam papers and NCERT books over the last 10 years.
