Case Study · EdTech Platform

Myra Academy was signing schools across India before it had a single line of working software.

The demand was never the problem. The question was whether the technology could keep up with the business as it grew.

Every stage of that growth happened on the same platform.

The first deadline

It started with 43 hours on the clock

The first deadline didn't wait for the platform.

Step 1
Thursday

A school group had committed to running its first live group project on a Saturday. Myra found out on Thursday. There was no software.

Step 2
43 Hours

BSP went live in 43 hours. Two engineers, one back-end and one front-end, delivered a platform that supported 200 students collaborating in real time.

Step 3
Saturday

The platform went live, and Myra kept growing.

Shipping one feature wasn't the achievement.

Building a platform that could keep pace with the business was.

The approach

Every school asked for something different

No two schools ran the same way. Different academic structures, different reporting, different expectations from teachers, parents, and administrators.

The usual path

That's usually where platforms begin to crack.

Every new customer adds complexity.
Custom work piles up.
Development slows to a crawl just when the business needs it to speed up.
The BSP way

Here it went the other way.

Each new requirement became part of the product instead of a one-off patch bolted onto the side.
The platform became stronger with every school, not more fragile.

The platform

One platform. Every school.

01

Learning

Curriculum, attendance, assessments, and student progress managed in one platform across 1,382 live learning modules.

02

Mobile Learning

Native iOS and Android applications bring STEAM and Communication Labs into the classroom. Offline-first capability keeps learning running even when connectivity doesn't.

03

Parents

Parents can follow student progress and receive updates directly without relying on manual communication.

04

Coding Assessments

A proprietary assessment engine built into the platform, priced on real usage and owned entirely by Myra.

05

Multi-school Management

Every school operates in its own isolated environment while sharing one platform, making expansion possible without rebuilding the product.

The capability

Owning the capability

Schools needed coding assessments at scale. The easiest answer was an off-the-shelf platform.

The off-the-shelf route

But those platforms create two long-term problems.

01

They charge a fixed monthly licence whether you run ten assessments or ten thousand, making growth increasingly expensive.

02

And because every competitor can buy exactly the same product, they never become competitive.

Instead, BSP built Myra its own coding assessment engine.
₹0.25per assessment

Priced at approximately ₹0.25 per assessment, the cost scales with actual usage rather than a fixed subscription. Growth no longer increased software licensing costs. The economics mattered.

More importantly, Myra owns one of the capabilities its platform depends on instead of relying on the same third-party software available to every competitor.

That's the difference between renting a feature and owning one.

Platform scale

uptime with no major incident in 18 months

Myra grew more than sevenfold without replacing the platform underneath it. As the business expanded, the technology expanded with it.

The long game

Built for continuous growth

Rapid growth creates constant change.

Features were needed yesterday. New requirements appear every week. Product priorities shift as the business evolves.

Instead of becoming technical debt, each new requirement became part of the platform.

Every unexpected load became an architecture decision.

Every "we need this by Monday" became a permanent capability.

That's why Myra scaled sevenfold without a rebuild.

Every phase built on the last.

The same foundation is now supporting Myra's expansion into Training & Placement and Competitive Test Preparation without starting again.

Technical discovery

Building an EdTech platform?

Launching is the easy part.

The challenge is supporting the next school, the next programme, and the next stage of growth without your own technology becoming the bottleneck.

It's also worth asking what your business actually owns. If your most important capabilities are rented from someone else, every new customer increases your software costs while giving competitors access to the same capabilities.

We'll review your current platform, understand where your business is heading, and identify what needs to change before growth turns into technical debt.

By treating every new requirement as a permanent product improvement instead of a temporary workaround. That's how Myra absorbed the needs of dozens of schools without needing a rebuild. Each new requirement strengthened the platform instead of making it more complicated.
