Founded in January 2021 by Lokap, Shivam, and Mohak Sahu, Languify started as an IIT-Bombay-based startup trying to solve the problem of lack of personalized interaction between the students & teachers.

Paras who had been teaching at IITs for more than 25 years felt that a ton of students lack communication skills which impact their careers. This is how Languify got started.
