AMA About Byjus

To all the people who blindly criticize the product, I think product is good. You should look into some videos on how science concepts are explained by Byjus Team on YouTube ROI- Cost of Byjus is about Rs 15 a Day, or about Rs 1600 per month..( Rs80,000 course of 5 years) Education as per UN as the highest ROI compared to any other investment. Bring up your questions and blind criticism. Remember if Byjus fails startup ecosystem will break down.

Byjus has all the major investors. It has raised over 5 Billion. Not a small amount for any size of PE/VC

Still a massive overstatement and hyperbole. Startups go down very often. Big ones like wework too.

Videos is not the product brother. It is just the content. The issue is related to overall customer experience, refunds and they don't deliver on what is promised to customers. The only good product that Byjus had is Neo Classes - Two Teacher Model which combined b2c product experience + tutor + tech and they again screwed it up through awful customer service

I believe videos are extremely effective in explaining concepts that can be difficult to explain in school. People don't know the problem of quality education in India. Only 60% students pass in 12 th standard. More than 60% students don't have knowledge of their last grade also(Source ASER report) They shitted in customer experience due to push selling. But product is decent value for money even for middle class families.

Byujus gets most of flak only because of its pushy and predatory sales team. From loans, to unrealistic career promises In tier 3 cities it has started convincing poor parents to transfer money they get from government schemes to byuju's. Cost might me low, but that is in in tandem to all other platforms. But there is lot of cross selling on top of it, and numbers increase by a lot

I think it's about the Direct Benefit Transfer Schemes of the Governments. Poor people are persuaded to take money from that account and pay for their child's BYJUs classes.

How do you say that the product is good? All education products are outcome based, do you have any statistics successful outcome created by Byjus

Valid question. I can say with fair surety that about 85% students will have significant improvement in grades if they complete the module. The problem is parents don't take any responsibility many times. Whenever parents take responsibility improvement is there.

If parents take responsibility then they won't send kids to Byjus 😁

Education as per UN is highest ROI. Remember if Byjus fails startup ecosystem will fail. Please keep paying us high salaries at Byjus because no one knows how these are justified if funding stops. So, the question is if there is no further funding, how does Byjus survive? Or is there a plan to survive without funding?

I have rarely seen criticism of the product. It's about brazen shameless hard sell.

Uncademy the new Victim to BYJU’s

After fooling countless customers, investors, loan partners, byjus employees are now all set to destroy what little is left to Unacademy. Unacademy is now frantically hiring people from BYJUs across all levels and verticals. With BYJUs employees employment stood on the base of false promises and unethical sales, it is just a matter of time, Unacademy will become the new BYJUs. With the company’s product first approach and the apprehension towards aggressive selling, it is disheartening to see the new fondness towards BYJUs.

What’s happening with byjus?

First the audit report got delayed. Now they’ve reported a loss of over 4.5k cr. And I believe they’re like a mothership of edtech, if they gone down then the entire category goes down from an investment perspective
