Our Story
Vijaya and Anil are both software engineers who returned from the US to India in 2008 with young children. They were appalled by the poor quality of software used by highly reputed schools that their kids attended until 2018 and ultimately decided to fix it with a world class school administration software as part of their entrepreneurial journey. A BITS Pilani graduate, with about 30 years of software development experience Anil runs the product and customer teams. An ex-Google employee, with about 20 years of software development experience, Vijaya runs the engineering team.
