About

Building learning platforms that help students across India prepare smarter, stay consistent, and reach their goals — no matter how competitive the exam. As the founder of MathonGo, I’ve spent the last decade working at the intersection of education, technology, and motivation — shaping products that simplify complex learning for millions of students. Over time, we’ve built an ecosystem of experiences like MathonGo, Quizrr and Marks, designed to make learning structured, personalized, and engaging. What began as a small initiative to make quality JEE preparation accessible has now evolved into a larger mission — to reimagine how serious learners across India study, practice, and grow. On this page, I share my thoughts and learnings on: - Building and scaling in EdTech - Understanding learner behavior and focus - Product design, motivation, and AI in education - The founder mindset and long-term thinking Beyond building, I now actively invest in early-stage founders who are shaping the future of learning, technology, and consumer internet — founders with clarity, conviction, and purpose. Follow to explore how we’re building — and backing — India’s next generation of builders. 🚀 -- An engineer by Degree, Entrepreneur by Passion & Learner and perfectionist by Soul

Mindshift applications & solutions pvt. ltd.

Co-Founder

Jan 2017Oct 2017 · 9 mos · Bengaluru Area, India

  • Mindshift Apps creates innovative solutions using tablets & smartphones that change the way education and learning happens. At Mindshift Apps we are building world-class app for IPads to be used in the classroom. Students spend their maximum time in school classrooms and major edtech solutions are built around after school learning, and we believe this inherently is not correct. Hence we are building Live Classroom analytics which will help all stakeholders involved in the upbringing to a student, i.e. School Administrators, Teachers, and Parents.
