- Not a great growth story. 
- IITian founders and one of the earliest Ed techs and yet shit revenue after a fucking decade 
- shit branding - replacing we with V in all comms is not Branding
- shit product 
- PW, Unacademy and many late comers have eaten up their market share 
- K12 is still their only or majority revenue, couldn’t expand into other categories at all 

Any Vedan’s or ex Vedan’s welcome to provide constructive  review in the comments. 

What gives?

Why is Vedantu still alive?

worst startup to work for in india.

Software Engineer

Edtech is dead, agreed. But we haven't reached the quality of output which is expected from education in India. We don't have quality outputs, most youngsters are unemployed and this change has to start from education. 

Byju, UA or Vedantu are the highest valued edtechs but they are not the face of what an education company should be like in a country like India. Let's leave them to the karma of their shortcomings and cheating. 

On a serious note trying to understand how we can use amalgamation of tech and education to get the desired result.

Things you would change about edtech!

Product Owner

What are problems with edTech startups in general?

Founder

So again Unacademy has asked people to leave, and asked them to resign.

Leadership is so clueless about what they are doing, they fired 3-4 people whom they had hired a month ago. Imagine the situation 😂

And I don't see this stopping at Unacademy anytime soon

They are aching left, right and centre. Still some people are making advt videos with Sachin.

And the nalla has time to tweet and enjoy vacation, I pity the investors who funded them.

100th Layoff round at Unacademy

Found these screenshots in my gallery while cleaning it. How many of these VC funded ed-tech startups exist today?

The offline coaching industry in India is one of the most profitable and lucrative businesses so why does Edtech giants like Byju's, unacademy fail to replicate the in profitability terms.

Why are Indian Edtech failing?

Just last week he was giving gyan on why BYJUs failed. Welcome BYJUs 2.0..

Another one bites the dust...

Sales

What's the situation of edtechs in India? Any positive signs after BYJU's raised money?

Apart from unethical sales practices, toxic work culture and mindless accusations, what do you think went wring with Byju’s.

Why do you think Byju’s is falling?

How to easily make employees exit the company

Is it a good company? Are their courses actually valuable? 
Think they have been primarily B2B but not completely sure who the buyers here are

A relatively silent EdTech unicorn & journey - anybody knows more about Eruditus?

Indian VC's will never learn. With losses mounting to INR 3000 Crores, this is another debacle in making.

Another Byjus in Making

Program Manager

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

I have been on this journey for a long time now. Lots of failure comes with loads of learning. Each step or initiative I took has helped me grow as a person, the business guy (ed-tech, media space), and also in terms of technicalities (full-stack product management, hardcore hands-on into technology and I love user experience)

Ps: currently running an edtech startup in pre-seed/seed stage

Feel free to ask anything, would be happy to help even personally
