Pune-based edutech firm gets funding from The Chennai Angels to boost online presence

School Diary is a user-friendly platform that caters to K12 schools, helping them engage students and conduct classes virtually without compromising on privacy.

Running profitably for the last 3 (three) years, uFony is a leading player in the K12 Education space. The company provides SAAS solutions to 1000+ educational institutes including colleges, schools, coaching, pre-schools, and daycares across 10+ countries. Post-COVID, uFony aims to bring about a change in traditional teaching methods and make them more compatible for the future. “School Diary is being leveraged by Schools across Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America. It is generating interest from a lot of school districts in the US,” said Ashish Chaturvedi, Founder of uFony Services. “Our recent raise is to enhance our digital presence and enrol business partners to scale up quickly in the international market.” 

The education industry is rapidly changing to adapt to an unstable situation. “By providing new features constantly, Ufony unfolds new ways of using services at little or no extra cost and with minimal efforts,” said R Narayanan (Naru), the Investment Director. “Take for example its video feature. With the mere addition of a tripod on which the cellphone can be perched, the teacher is able to instantly include an ailing child who is unable to attend class. At the press of buttons on a phone, the sick child is right into the class where it can view teachers and friends as well,” he said on the effective use of video conferencing functions.
