Scholarics

What Scholarics does

Scholarics operates a free, browser-based suite of academic calculators and AI study tools aimed at students globally. The platform currently offers 27+ calculators spanning GPA and CGPA management (GPA Calculator, CGPA Calculator, Target GPA Calculator, GPA Simulator, GPA Improvement Planner, Global GPA Converter covering 30+ country grading scales), grade and exam tools (Grade Calculator, Final Exam Score Calculator, Grade Predictor, Assignment Weight Calculator), attendance tracking, study planning (Study Time Calculator, Pomodoro Timer, Study Planner, Credit Hour Planner), and writing/math utilities (Word Counter, Scientific Calculator, Percentage tools). The core architecture is local-first: calculator inputs are processed entirely in the user's browser and never sent to Scholarics servers, with intermediate state stored in local storage only, enabling a no-account, frictionless user experience.

An AI module extends the suite with an AI Citation Generator (APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, IEEE), AI Quiz Generator, AI Paraphraser, and AI Tutor (beta), all powered by Google Gemini. These AI features are available on the free tier with small daily usage limits and are slated to anchor a new Scholarics Premium subscription tier that is currently in early-access waitlist (offering 3 months free to early subscribers).

The business model is product-led growth: organic SEO around high-volume academic calculator keywords drives the bulk of acquisition, supported by a blog of study guides and country-specific grading explainers. The company is bootstrapped, headquartered in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, with 1–10 employees, no disclosed funding, and no institutional or enterprise customers. Monetization today runs almost entirely through Google AdSense (loaded only after user cookie consent); Scholarics Premium represents a planned shift to a hybrid ad-plus-subscription model. Geographic reach is global via the web platform, with no mobile apps, marketplace listings, or reseller channels.
