Znanie

EdTech B2B · India
Exploring

A B2B academic support system that empowers schools to deliver IIT-JEE and NEET preparation in-house, without external faculty.

The Problem

Schools want to offer IIT-JEE and NEET preparation to their students, but they lack the internal infrastructure, verified question banks, and frameworks to do so. As a result, students are forced to attend external coaching centers—costing families ₹80,000 to ₹1,80,000 annually—which often creates schedule conflicts and diverts focus away from board exams.

The Solution

Znanie is a B2B academic support system that empowers schools to deliver entrance exam coaching in-house, without hiring external faculty.

  • Teacher Empowerment: We train the school's existing teachers through comprehensive workshops, provide lesson plans, and offer 24/7 WhatsApp support.
  • Structured Content & Testing: We supply a verified 5,000+ question bank, 15 years of past papers, and a structured testing schedule (weekly chapter tests, monthly full-length mocks).
  • Analytics & Transparency: Schools get a real-time dashboard to track student progress, identify weak areas, and share monthly performance reports with parents.

Current Status

Znanie is currently in the Exploring stage. The academic framework, pricing model (₹11,000/subject/year), and operational playbook have been fully designed. We are now seeking a dedicated Operator/Co-founder to launch the first pilot with 5 schools and run the company independently.
