ray, a north-east based educational app, launched in Guwahati
GUWAHATI, 17 JANUARY, 2019: A new educational mobile app ‘ray’ was launched in Guwahati on Wednesday. This new mobile application will bridge the gap between the parents, teachers, and schools, which will omit all the flaws in the education system and will digitise the system to make the students’ future better.
This is a North East based start up, where three budding entrepreneurs have come up with an idea to solve most of the problems in our existing education system. This app is a complete solution to the system related problems. This app is basically designed for the schools where every parent can install the app in their smartphone and monitor their kids’ activities and performance. Apart from that this app has numerous other features which will ease the payments of the fees, pre-booking the schools, tracking the school bus, checking the ratings of the schools through this single app.
This app is the brainchild of Rustom Naji who is from Arunachal Pradesh. He shared his idea with the developers in South India and they started designing it. Then he took Angkim Kashyap Sharma and Indrani Chakrabarty from Assam as partners to add new features and develop the app according to the market need of the region.
Rustom Naji, one of the founders of ray says, “It will change the entire education system in a positive way where parents will be updated about their kids and focus on their requirement.” When asked about the idea behind launching the app, Angkim Kayshap Sharma stated, “As we have seen that after passing out from the schools many students don’t know the basics and end up performing poorly in higher education. This issue will be addressed by our new app.” Speaking on the impact of the app, Indrani Chakrabarty said, “We have many plans to improve the app according to the requirement of the teachers, school authorities, the parents and the students. Our developers are working day and night to improve the app and make the app as convenient as possible.”
On the expansion plans and marketing strategies, Subhankar Banerjee, PR consultant of Ray said, “We have set up our office Guwahati which is the Head Office, and also in Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland & Meghalaya. We have recruited a strong team that will approach the schools and tie up with them and then we will spread this app to entire North East.”
Anand Mishra, IPS, Superintendent of Police (Vigilance & Anti-Corruption), Assam; Tora Khasgir, super model and grooming expert; and Nurul Laskar, PR consultant & motivation speaker also addressed the launch event.
The mobile app is now available in Google Play store as Raybatbrain on the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.batbrains.ray
