Hi, my name is Vrinda, and I am the co-founder of Vidya. I have been teaching online for more than 5 years now, I realized that learners don't engage as their camera is off and the audio is muted. It becomes challenging to get a true sense of how the lecture went! And discussing this problem with my teacher network, this problem was seeking a solution. Ribhu, my co-founder, resonates with the idea and has executed the entire tech. Vidya provides insights on - Which learners show high and low engagement during sessions - Which learners do or do not understand the topics - Which topics were understood less (so you can evaluate if anything needs to be revisited) All this, without any format tests or exams, and right at the end of each session (instead of waiting for tests/exams, i.e., lagging indicators). Vidya also evaluates attendance based on learner participation, so if learners do not engage in your classrooms, you can treat them as absent (or, as we like to call it, "mentally absent"). A little background: I have worked in the education industry for 10 years and contributed to successful ed-tech startups' content and strategy teams. My Co-founder, Ribhu, has tech and product experience and was heading the Product team at a YC startup before starting Vidya.us with me. Any instructor, in academics or corporate vertical, faces this challenge, where it is hard to get visibility on learner engagement and understanding, and there is no way for org/individuals to retrospect on lecture delivery and content. We designed this software from the ground up, so it is super simple for educators to use Vidya in daily life; it can work on all screen sizes and be integrated into any LMS. Keen to hear all your thoughts and feedback on Vidya!

One of the major problems faced by teachers is that they are unable to gauge if their students are understanding the concepts taught in class. This becomes even harder to measure in an online setup. Enter Vidya.us - this SaaS platform helps teachers engage with students via real-time QnA session in classes and also provides detailed analytics and insights to understand overall classroom engagement, which student is performing well, which student is lagging behind and also in which topics. Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Hi, my name is Brototy Mishra, and I am the co-founder and Chief Impact Officer at Claylab Education foundation. Our students come from low-income families and often cannot keep their videos on. It was difficult for us to track engagement of students. Vidya came as a solution to this. Our teachers and students have loved using Vidya. It increased participation of learners in our class and helped us identify needs of students and create customised plans. Keep up the good work. All the best to Team Vidya.
