Revenue model

1. Program tuition fees: One-time upfront payment for program enrollment. Two pricing tiers per program: Self-Learn (recorded sessions + hands-on projects) at a lower price point, and Live Help (all Self-Learn benefits + live classes + doubt clearing) at a higher price point. No subscription or recurring billing. Programs are 10–12 weeks in duration.
2. Referral incentive payouts: Students earn ₹500 cash per successful referral when a friend enrolls using their referral code. The referrer is paid out within 7 days of the referee's enrollment. This is a marketing cost that drives customer acquisition rather than a revenue stream.

Core offering

AI Academia sells live, instructor-led online training programs in AI, machine learning, data science, and digital marketing to individual students and working professionals across India. Each enrollment includes an integrated AI internship, deployed cloud projects, 1:1 mentorship from working industry professionals, and career support, delivered over 10–12 weeks via a web-based virtual classroom.

Product overview

AI Academia is a Kolkata-based EdTech platform (founded 2023) offering six live online training programs — Python with Data Science, Generative AI, Agentic AI, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Digital Marketing & Analytics — alongside bundled internship, mentorship, and career support services. Programs range from 10 to 12 weeks and are beginner-to-advanced in difficulty. The core offering is live, mentor-led online instruction (not pre-recorded), with 100% live classes plus recorded session access. All programs include a hands-on AI internship, industry-recognized certificate, 1-on-1 mentorship, peer community access, resume/interview preparation, and deployed portfolio projects. The platform also provides a structured beginner-to-advanced learning path, dedicated TA support, and community groups. The six named programs share a common architecture of foundation → intermediate → advanced modules with capstone projects, but differ in specialization: Python with Data Science and Machine Learning target technical/data-focused learners; Generative AI and Agentic AI target AI practitioners; Artificial Intelligence is a broader introduction; and Digital Marketing targets growth/marketing roles.
