Built by educators. Engineered for Bharat.
OrbitGurukul was started because the founders watched their own children's schools drown in WhatsApp groups, Excel sheets and angry parent calls. The big-city ERP wasn't built for them. So we built one that was — for the Tier-2 and Tier-3 schools that quietly educate most of India.
What we believe.
Schools first, software second
Every feature ships only after a real principal has used it for a full term. Our product roadmap is reviewed quarterly by a council of 12 working principals from across India.
Bharat-grade reliability
Designed for patchy 4G, regional languages and the realities of a small-town front office. Works offline, syncs when online. Tested on ₹6,000 Android phones.
Honest pricing
No per-module add-ons, no surprise renewal hikes, no per-seat sneak-attacks. The price you see is the price you pay — and it doesn't go up at renewal.
Data belongs to the school
Your data is yours. Export anytime in standard formats. We never sell, share or monetise student information — full stop.
Hosted in India
All data residency is in Mumbai and Hyderabad AWS regions. No data ever leaves Indian soil — important for compliance, important for trust.
On-the-ground support
Regional language WhatsApp support. On-call within 4 hours for paid customers. No bots, no ticket queues you can't escape.
