About

If you’re helping students land better jobs, I can help you. Hello, I’m Lokap Sahu, Co-Founder & CEO of LanguifyAI, India's leading conversational AI to improve learning for students and increase the placement rates for institutions. While studying at IIT Bombay, I witnessed the immense potential of AI in personalising education, enhancing classroom learning, and empowering educators to drive better college placements. I built LanguifyAI with just one aim: To help colleges and edtech institutions upskill students and help them bag the best possible jobs in the market. LanguifyAI personalises education, keeps students engaged, and empowers you with data to make rockstar decisions. The result? A classroom buzzing with critical thinking, a love for learning, and students who are READY to crush it in the real world. Think your college/edtech institution could use a boost in placements and learning outcomes? Let's chat! I'm on a mission to bridge the gap between traditional classrooms and the future of education, and I can't wait to see how LanguifyAI can transform yours. Drop me a message and let's get the conversation started!
