Shikho

Rangs Paramount Level 11 Block-K, Plot-11 Rd No 17, Dhaka, 1213, Bangladesh

Overview

Shikho creates curriculum-aligned learning content for Bangladeshi students, focusing on grades 9–12 with plans to expand into grades 6 through university and continuous education. Its product mix includes short animated videos (~6 minutes), smart notes to replace guidebooks, and practice questions with detailed solutions. The platform uses gamification (points, leaderboards, badges) to drive engagement and plans to add live classes to its existing pre-recorded content. The app is offered with a seven-day free trial and a freemium strategy intended to convert parents (the paying customers). Paying users show high engagement, typically spending about 45–50 minutes daily in the app. New funding is earmarked to scale content production, build an app for parents, and expand user acquisition channels including offline sales teams.
