EduGorilla has ambitious plans to remold not just the firm but the educational Ecosystem as a whole:
- Utilize the funding to expand the content in 9 Vernacular Languages by April 2023

- Increase coaching partners from 3,000 to 15,000

With the advancement of AI tech, the market for online test preparation has experienced a CAGR of 64% over the past five years, despite the fact that 90% of test preparation centers are in the unorganized segment, indicating a large potential market. While the majority of firms in this space provide coaching services, EduGorilla stands out for its content and exam preparation tools. EduGorilla’s incredible growth and the journey were also published in several popular newspapers, which cited the company’s inexorable expansion in the ‘Job-Tech’ business.
