BE careful with this sector. Students will not be interested in any courses unless you provide a placement guarantee.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Most Edtech startups seem to be providing very little value, and are pure sales machines. Learning is super important, and I’m beginning to realise I’ve not done any structured online learning in the longest times (Coursera early days, Bucky Roberts on YouTube etc.)

Wanted to know if any of you have tried out online courses somewhere and have had a genuinely good learning experience?

Has anybody here had a positive Edtech experience?

Corporate Strategist

What are your views on a small edtech product that can help/tutor students for SAT and ACT's. I know a ton of these already exist but don't think why I can't launch a similar service and generate a decent revenue. 

I am not looking at a massive valuation but I think this can grow into a neat little business that generates enough to sustain me. (Say about 20-30k USD). Lemme know your thoughts if you don't think this will workout

Wanting to start an Edtech (company?) for American/Western European

Iam a product designer and front-end developer plus a no code developer.  I have 1.7 yrs experience.  I don't have a big package ,6 lac plus 4 lac I make via freelance. Iam not in a big metro city . My expense are all around  6 k a month. 

My gf is a junior scientist  working for us base company which makes batteries for electric vehicles.she has package of 8 lac. And she is working near my home town. We both are based from kochi kerala. 
She has approsal every 3 months .and have lot of opportunities  to travel outside India attend conference. And it is a rare opportunity.  

Now we are planning to get married.  But I don't want her to leave her Job because she had   learned  so much  and finally she  got this job .

The problem is ill have to move to kochi ,there the packages  are not that great. I'll have to settle for less below 10lac.

From some mentors I talked they say I would get around 16 lac easily. The only reason I never bothered jumping was I was very comfortable  in my job and and my total income was also good.

But now iam thinking what should I do.
Since she has to be offline work  from home is not option.  I'll have to move . I'll be near my home and parents . 

But I will have a lame packge . 

What should I do.im confused 😕

Should I  settle for  small package?

Software Developer

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Do you think that most of the edtechs for College students and professionals just dump a ton of web developers, who have also crammed up DSA. 

Once, a Scaler sales person called me and we talked for almost an hour. I said that I'm already working in a product company and was making a decent (decent only, not in par with the usual SDE salaries in tier 1 tech companies). 

He still wanted me to sign up 😂
I said that, I'm willing to sign up only if they have a detailed course on a topic (development using Java, and Kotlin).

He said that they do web development only because it's a vetted curriculum and easy to learn and get a job. 

I asked why do they charge a ton of money while they've made the curriculum public, and the response was that it's for the faculties and the mentors available. 

It doesn't make sense to me, as we can connect easily with most of the people from any of the companies (and usually a good number of people are just waiting for someone to reach out to them). 

Where will this end? A ton of web developers who are just there because of the salary?

Some says that India is not yet home to good deep tech companies, and I believe that this is the reason for the same. 

I strongly feel that a good number of the software developers are just there because they got into it without exploring further options, and because of the pay (not everyone)

Edtech - Controversial Topic

Graphy has forced a 30% salary cut on each employee to achieve profitability this year. This cut will be applicable from February onwards until 7-8 months. 

Truly a sad time for the Edtech ecosystem.

I repeat: 
  
 If you have options, avoid joining EdTech companies. 
  
 If you're already working for one, exit at first opportunity. 
  
 Indian EdTech companies are largely sweat shops in fancy office buildings.

I want to start a world’s biggest ed-tech startup? How much money and manpower do i need to start?

AMA about Edtechs

my frd is planning to start an edutech startup, yh I know eduTech is severely down, despite education system and how we learn needs a Big change and innovation for better india.

so I request all to suggest idea, thoughts around this. thanks

[hint of my frds idea: planning to certification and ranking for schools and colleges teachers and training them instead of training the students, what do you think?]

need Ideas to fix the current education system

I taught 2-3 semesters for a college's online degree education course for MBA students. Subjects included fintech, intro to blockchain, NFTs.

Stopped teaching for the college because they were paying peanuts for all the effort, wasn't worth it. Still have the material I made, that I can repurpose.

Can't really sell the course standalone because can't offer a degree as such, only certificate max. Plus the material is also mostly available for free online on different websites and sources, I just aggregated and organized it.

Would have loved to make a monetizable edtech project out of it, but it will require rewriting the content to some extent and I'm not a coder that can spin up an LMS or customise an existing one well enough. Making it free/open source is also an option since people don't want to pay for something they can find online for free (albeit after searching around).

Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions?

I have educational material I want to utilise/monetize

Product Owner

Just a random thought which popped in my mind that when you say online classes most people tend to feel uneasy due to how online classes were conducted by our traditional schools / colleges which to be very honest the faculties are technologically challenged and lack the tools or knowledge to conduct them. It was just a joke tbh. 

Now however people have that idea of online education in mind which means they are completely against online education and EdTech even though these are companies who have the knowledge and technology to conduct them well and are made for online education. 

How can we fix this mess and do you think EdTech will survive as an industry or become obsolete in India ?

Do you think traditional schools / colleges shifting to online mode during COVID messed up the EdTech space ?

Assistant Manager

I’m sure all of us have thought of something exciting to start at some point, but choose to continue with corporate life.

Would love to hear ideas from this community, and understand what stopped people from building out.

What’s a business/startup idea that you never got around to building?

You know the stereotypical Edtech startup - sales-driven, promises good placements, no quality control, overpriced AF.

Is there any company who's actually focusing on building something valuable in this space?

Are there any 'ethical' Edtech startups in India?

I joined this job 3 months back. Things haven't been good. Part of the problem is that the people I am reporting into have little to no experience in the segment they are entering into and are not willing to listen to someone who has worked in this segment for 15+ years.

I am a little bemused.... I don't really need the job. But the money is nice..... 

Any suggestions on what to do.....

Saw my job listed on linkedin. What should I do?

Business Development Manager

I have educational material that I want to host on a platform. It's all text for now, media can be added later. Have an angel investor interested in funding it as long as I have an MVP ready first.

What's the best way to create an MVP in the shortest possible time? Need a barebones one that can just deliver content to sign-ups to start with. I'm not a coder but I can experiment with AI tools to make something basic.

Want to keep it minimum effort because it's only one person who's interested as of now, and there's no guarantee of investment even after MVP is ready.

I'm planning to start edtech, Anyone with experience or knowledge of creating website?
