Infinity Learn was launched in mid-2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic as Sri Chaitanya's foray into the online education space.[6]Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma was enlisted to promote the platform in its launch campaign "#JeetPakki" (meaning "victory assured") aimed at students preparing for exams.[7] Backed by an initial investment of about $50 million from the Sri Chaitanya group, Infinity Learn scaled quickly after its inception.[8] Within eight months of commercial launch, the platform had registered over one million users and 100,000 paid subscribers, reflecting rapid early growth.[9] Ujjwal Singh, formerly an executive at Pearson, joined as the founding CEO in 2021 to lead Infinity Learn's expansion beyond being just a digital wing of Sri Chaitanya.[10]
Acquisitions
Infinity Learn has expanded its content and services through several acquisitions:
Teacherr (2021) – Acquired in October 2021, Teacherr is a Hyderabad-based digital platform for the teaching community, which provided Infinity Learn with educator networking and content capabilities.[11]
Don't Memorise (2021) – Acquired in late 2021, Don't Memorise is a Mumbai-based multilingual educational content platform focused on grades 6–10. This acquisition added a library of bite-sized videolessons in multiple languages and strengthened Infinity Learn's content production for school curricula.[12][13]
WizKlub (2022) – In 2022, Infinity Learn acquired a majority stake in Bangalore-based WizKlub, a cognitive development edtech startup targeting children aged 6–14 with programs in higher-order thinking skills (HOTS), coding, and robotics.[14] The deal, valued at around $10 million, led to the creation of Infinity Futurz, a new vertical offering foundational skills and extracurricular learning beyond the standard K-12 curriculum.[15]
Technology and Partnerships
In October 2023, Infinity Learn launched an artificial intelligence-driven learning platform called IL VISTA (short for Virtual IntelligentSystem for Tailored Academics).[16] IL VISTA was developed as a teacher-assist and student support system leveraging AI to personalize education.[17] The company invested approximately $1 million in IL VISTA's first phase, which introduced features like an AI-powered doubts resolution assistant ("Doubts AI") and AI-enhanced assessment tools to aid educators with lesson planning and evaluations.[18] This initiative marked a significant step by Infinity Learn to integrate vertical AI solutions into its learning ecosystem.
In late 2024, Infinity Learn announced a strategic collaboration with Google Cloud to enhance its platform with Google's advanced AI technology.[19] Through this partnership, Infinity Learn is integrating Google's AI stack (including models like Vertex AI and Gemini) to deliver hyper-personalized learning experiences for students.[20] The collaboration enables AI-based virtual tutors or "AI agents" on the platform to act as a "teacher-by-your-side," providing real-time guidance, adaptive practice questions, and tailored study plans based on each learner's strengths and weaknesses.[21]
Financial Performance
Infinity Learn experienced rapid revenue growth in its first two years of operation. The company's revenue from operations grew from just ₹2.3 crore in FY2021–22 to over ₹100 crore in FY2022–23, and it became profitable (profit-after-tax positive) within that period.[22][23] By the end of fiscal year2023–24, Infinity Learn reported approximately ₹200 crore in revenue and anticipated its first full-year operational profit in FY2024–25.[24]
Infinity Learn's management set a goal of doubling annual revenue to about ₹400 crore in FY2024–25, and ultimately reaching around ₹500 crore by 2025 with continued expansion.[25][26]
Expansion and Future Plans
The company began establishing physical learning centers as part of a hybrid learning model; as of 2024, it operates two learning centers (in Lucknow and Patna) and has announced plans to open around 40 centers over the next two years.[27] These centers are intended to complement the online platform with in-person tutoring and support, particularly in smaller cities, though they require significant investment and time to become profitable.[28]
