Glance. No one wants that shit on their phone, only leadership circle jerks calling it lock screen revolution.
Leadership said we don’t want to be ecomm after realising they can’t sell shit via social commerce changed it like every other ecomm.
This is what happens when you let consultants run a company.

Have a close friend who used to work there. There’s so much disconnect between different teams, ego clashes all around and execs who have no fucking clue what to do. What’s hilarious is that their shit doesn’t even work properly on a majority of devices it’s deployed on, and they don’t even seem to know/detect this???

It's just sad how Khatabook used to be a casestudy and it's about to bite the dust.

Vauld. The only person who made money in that scam is Bhatija (CEO). paid his sister over 1.6cr for office renovation. The office looks size is probably 1 bhk house. Lot of shady things inside that firm.

Quite bad. I was part of the layoffs which were 6-7 months back. Fast forward to today, the whole founding engineering team is gone. As of today the whole website is run by 1 person, app by 2 and backend again by 1. Only one designer was left after the layoffs who's leaving soon as well.
The company is pivoting to a society based model focussing on school kids. It might work for the next round (v slight chance) but definitely at a down round.
Except PhysicsWallah (PW) which got funded to the tune of $500m and throwing money around. They have a good backup of the YouTube income always in the background but believe they also will go through the boom-bust cycle.

Heard they’re planning an IPO this year
ShareChat might just stay alive, numbers are getting better. Moj is in shambles tho. But overall culture within the org is not what it used be more than a year back, not a lot of cheerful faces around.

Every EdTech except Byju's for now. Sadly Dunzo too.
Khatabook is pretty dead. No business model, most of the leadership has left. Very uncertain future
