Building the operating foundation for Indian education.
Grid Platform builds calm, dependable, and sovereign software for modern schools, colleges, and educational societies. Founded on first principles in India, engineered for institutions that operate across generations.
Restoring structural integrity to campus governance
India's educational ecosystem educates over 250 million students every day, guided by millions of devoted educators. Yet for decades, the technological infrastructure supporting these institutions has remained fractured: fragile spreadsheets prone to corruption, paper ledger registers, and bloated legacy software built decades ago without security or privacy considerations.
We founded Grid Platform to build an architectural alternative. We asked: what if an educational ERP operated with the reliability of a modern operating system? What if database-level tenant isolation was mathematically enforced, currency was calculated in exact integer paise to eliminate accounting discrepancies, and classroom attendance took seconds instead of half a period?
Today, Cohort serves as the unified operating foundation for accredited Indian schools. Every byte of student data is hosted strictly inside sovereign Indian cloud infrastructure in AWS Mumbai (ap-south-1), fully compliant with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 and statutory educational board guidelines.
Principles that guide our engineering
Sovereign Custody
Student records and educational histories are deeply personal. We treat campus records like national critical infrastructure. We strictly prohibit advertising telemetry, behavioral tracking, or third-party profiling. All records are hosted exclusively in AWS Mumbai under the DPDP Act 2023.
Fiduciary Precision
Educational societies handle crores in tuition, scholarship allocations, and capital expenditures. Floating-point numbers create painful fractional accounting drift. Grid Platform calculates every ledger entry in exact integer paise, ensuring reconciliations balance to zero.
Pedagogical Respect
Teachers are educators, not administrative clerks. Clumsy dropdown menus and slow loading spinners steal precious morning hours from teaching. We design tactile micro-interactions — enabling classroom roll calls across 45 pupils in under 5 taps.
Institutional Permanence
Schools outlive software fads; they operate across generations of alumni. We build with PostgreSQL Row-Level Security, immutable 8-year historical archives, and cryptographic soft-deletes so that relational audit integrity under Section 65B remains unbreakable.
Uncompromising standards for educational trust
Campus-First System Design
Our engineers and product designers spend time inside real school environments: at the morning bus gates, in busy bursar cash counters, and inside staff rooms. We build tools that withstand spotty Wi-Fi, peak 8:00 AM attendance spikes, and diverse user technical literacy.
The Zero Seat-Tax Commitment
Legacy software companies penalize growing schools with steep per-seat fees for adding teachers, clerks, lab assistants, or parents. At Grid Platform, every plan includes 100% unlimited logins and mobile app accounts for all campus stakeholders without hidden surcharges.
Accredited Indian Standards
From CBSE and ICSE continuous scholastic assessments to state board fee structures and transfer certificate registries, Cohort is built to natively adhere to Indian educational directives and Section 65B electronic evidence requirements.
