Despite being one of the largest English-speaking nations in the world, only 265 Mn out of 1.4 billion people living in India are competent in English. So in 2022, born out of his own struggle with the language and to bridge this wide gap - Shivam Gupta launched My Sivi (YC W22)
Gupta reconnected with his old folks, Akshay Sanghai and Anoop Jaiswal, and launched Speakify Al (later changed to My Sivi) an English language learning Al platform designed to make Indians proficient in the language.
Since launch, the app has already garnered over 1 Mn downloads and boasts more than 200K monthly active users.
In fact, the trio have been able to monetise the app to crack an annual revenue of over $250K on the back of its base of 30K paid users.
And they have big ambitions. My Sivi has its eyes set on $1 Mn in revenues and a 5 Mn user base by year-end.
At a time when the Indian GenAl market is projected to surpass $17 Bn by 2030, growing from $1.1 Bn in 2023, an e-learning Al startup like My Sivi has enough headroom to grow.
