Practically is an education-technology platform that delivers experiential learning using augmented reality (AR), simulations and three-dimensional videos. The company says its app has reached 1.5 million downloads and has enabled continued experiential learning for 1.5M students since its launch during the first lockdown. Founded in 2018 by Subbarao Siddabattula, Charu Noheria and Ilangovel Thulasimani, Practically focuses on enhancing learning outcomes and empowering teachers. The company will use the new funding to expand operations across India, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, and to enhance marketing, product development and sales verticals. Practically also plans tactical hiring to scale up its business and consolidate its foothold in the edtech sector. Financially, the company has completed multiple rounds and is preparing for a Series B scheduled to begin early next year. Practically is an intelligent, interactive, and immersive learning app for students of classes 6–12 with a focus on STEM learning. It uses immersive videos, interactive augmented reality, and 3D simulations to provide experiential, hands-on lessons and positions itself as the only experiential learning app that brings learning alive. Features include life-like video content, 24×7 seek-help access to subject experts for doubt resolution, live classes, Proton — an AI assistant and study buddy, and Coding++. More than 300,000 students have already benefited from Practically's content. The company says the $4 million pre-Series B proceeds will be used to expand operations beyond Telangana and Andhra Pradesh and to establish a pan-India footprint within 12 months. Practically is a product of 3rdFlix Visual Effects Pvt Ltd and is based in Hyderabad; it also aims to expand into the Middle East and enter the US market in the near future.
