Doubtnut is an Indian educational app started by Tanushree Nagori and Aditya Shankar in 2016.^[3] Doubtnut is available as an Android application on Play Store or by accessing its official website.

Operation[]

The platform uses image recognition technologies to provide solutions of some mathematical and science questions.^[1]^[4] To find the solution to a question, one has to upload an image depicting the question. The app extracts text from the image and tries to match it in its database of questions which are pre-answered, having recorded video solutions. If it finds a match, then the result is provided to the user otherwise it asks the user to post their question publicly for tutors available on the platform to provide a video explaining their query.^{[citation needed]}

Funding[]

Doubtnut received its first funding of US$100K from Ankit Nagori of Cure.fit in April, 2017.^{[citation needed]}

In 2019, Omidyar Network and WaterBridge invested about $470,000.^[5] In January 2020, the company raised $15 million in Series A round of funding from Tencent Holdings, and existing investors Sequoia Capital and Omidyar Network India.^[6]^[7]
