In 2019, Aman Singh and Sasidhar Sista co-founded GradRight, an innovative platform that bridges the gap between aspiring students, universities, and lenders.
Through their AI-based ecosystem, GradRight offers a streamlined approach to higher education decisions. Students gain access to comprehensive program information, empowering them to make informed choices. Simultaneously, universities can efficiently identify well-suited candidates.
Notably, GradRight’s platform also extends to financial institutions, enabling banks to provide targeted financing options for students’ education pursuits.
The transformative impact of GradRight’s platform is evident, having facilitated loan requests exceeding $1.75 billion (INR 14,300 crore) and benefiting over 55,000 students.
With a tech-centric approach, GradRight’s founders express their dedication to providing students the means for a deserving education. IvyCap Ventures’ endorsement of their innovative model bolsters their global mission.
In collaboration with 15 lenders and over 50 international academic institutions spanning the US, Canada, and Europe, GradRight presents students with a myriad of choices, encompassing 13,100 programs across 1,000 universities.
The landscape of studying abroad has evolved into a dynamic arena for Indian startups to innovate through technology-driven solutions.
In this context, GradRight finds its place among prominent players such as Leverage Edu, securing $40 million, and Leap, with a $75 million funding from last year. UniScholars and various individual agents and small enterprises also contribute to the vibrant ecosystem.
