Ekatra – A Low-Data, High-Impact Learning Platform

Ekatra is the first low data / no data learning platform. As per a report by Stanford's Center for Education Policy Analysis, text message learning is remarkably accessible and effective. Ekatra helps institutions create, deploy, and assess text message-based micro-courses that dramatically improve learning and training.

We use spaced learning and microlearning models that significantly boost retention and engagement compared to standard digital platforms. Despite the effectiveness, text message learning is often overlooked—Ekatra empowers nonprofits and learning organizations to close this gap.

Once courses are uploaded, educators can choose timing and delivery modes (SMS or WhatsApp). Visual cues are sent via images and audio calls enable synchronous doubt-solving sessions.

Why Are We Building This?

The digital divide between urban and rural students is widening. Many students lack access to OTT-based learning. Ekatra is designed for underserved communities, offering equitable access to education.

With our shift from OTT tools to phone/audio/SMS-based tools, we've seen:

15x
increase in student signups with phone audio vs. Zoom
30%
increase in responses using SMS over WhatsApp

COVID Relevance

Over 1.05 billion global learners were impacted by COVID-19 school closures. In India, 285 million learners were affected. Ekatra bridges the gap caused by digital exclusion during such crises.
