BodhiVerse

From Insight to Impact
Technology for Better Education.

Incubated at IIT Bombay, crafted for institutions everywhere

Who We Are

BodhiVerse is a technology-for-education company incubated at IIT Bombay. We build secure, cloud-based solutions that make classrooms and examinations simpler, faster, and more reliable. Our products are designed to reduce administrative burden on educators, enhance student participation, and modernize the way institutions run their academic processes. At our core, we believe education should focus on learning and growth, not operational hurdles.

MISSION

To reimagine classroom and exam processes, starting with SAFE, and gradually expand into a suite of tools that empower the education ecosystem.

VISION

Transform the conduct of classes and exams through secure, scalable, and seamless technology.

Innovation rooted in experience,
evolving from need to impact

How it Started

BodhiVerse began inside the classrooms of IIT Bombay, born out of everyday academic challenges faced by both students and instructors.

The first spark came from real classroom challenges. Instructors noticed that student engagement in flipped classes was low, weekly quizzes were difficult to conduct regularly, and attendance gradually declined, dampening both teaching and learning. On the other hand, large-scale exams with hundreds of candidates consumed enormous effort in grading. These recurring pain points highlighted the need for a smarter, technology-driven solution.

To address these challenges, the founding team started experimenting with a digital solution that combined secure attendance, regular quizzes, and streamlined grading tools. What began as a small initiative quickly proved its value. Within a year, the system was being used by entire first-year batches at IIT Bombay to mark their attendance.

The momentum didn’t stop there. Recognizing the broader need to modernize classroom operations and assessments, the project evolved into a scalable product. To support this growth and bring the solution to institutions beyond IIT Bombay, BodhiVerse was incubated at SINE, IIT Bombay’s business incubator.

What started as a simple fix for participation and grading inefficiencies has now grown into SAFEGrad, BodhiVerse’s flagship product, trusted by multiple institutions to streamline attendance and exams. And at the heart of it, the original spirit remains the same: solving real academic problems with technology that just works.

Engineered by Educators, for Education.

Meet Our Founders

Behind BodhiVerse are IIT Bombay professors who’ve lived the classroom experience firsthand. Their expertise in networks, systems, and education technology ensures every product is shaped by insight, not assumption.

Specializing in cloud systems, network security, and technology for education, Prof. Chebrolu combines research-driven expertise with hands-on system building. Her focus ensures BodhiVerse solutions are not only secure and efficient, but also adaptable to the diverse needs of educational institutions.

BodhiVerse as a Workplace

Built on Curiosity. Driven by Purpose.

BodhiVerse grew out of the IIT Bombay ecosystem, a place where research, innovation, and curiosity naturally intersect. That very same spirit shapes how we work. We are driven by a simple belief: technology should make education simpler, fairer, and more effective.

We believe in creating a workplace where initiative, responsibility, and a love for learning thrive. Instead of measuring hours, we focus on outcomes. Instead of rigid hierarchies, we trust people to take ownership and make decisions. This gives our work environment a natural energy, one where individuals can learn, build, and grow, while knowing that what they create has meaningful impact.

Transparency and authenticity matter to us. We don’t pretend to be bigger than we are, but we are proud of what we achieve, be it rolling out a new feature or solving a long-standing pain point for educators. Being genuine builds trust within our team, with the institutions that adopt our products, with the educators who rely on them, and with the students who use them every day.

Growing on Our Own Terms

BodhiVerse is not formed to follow the startup playbook of “grow at all costs.” Our strength comes from independence and sustainability. The connection with IIT Bombay gives us access to world-class ideas and talent, while our autonomy ensures we set priorities based on what educators really need and not what funding cycles demand.

This balance creates a rare kind of work environment: one that is stable yet dynamic, ambitious yet grounded. It allows us to make long-term decisions, invest in building robust systems, and avoid the churn of short-term trends. Within the team, that translates into a culture free of unnecessary noise where collaboration, problem-solving, and respect take precedence over office politics.
