Fair question. Every other CA Foundation prep app asks for ₹500–50,000. Here’s exactly why CA Saarthi doesn’t — and what that means for your data, your privacy, and the product you get.
No Pro plan. No Plus tier. No “premium mock test pack”. Ever.
There are zero ads. We’re not selling your attention to coaching brands, banks, or anyone else.
Your answers, scores, and study patterns stay on our servers for your use. We don’t sell them to third parties.
There’s no paid tier in the pipeline. What you see is what you get, forever.
Four honest reasons.
The expensive parts of coaching are human faculty hours and human graders. AI can explain concepts, mark handwritten answers, and personalise plans at near-zero marginal cost. That cost difference is what gets passed to you.
Coaching brands spend crores on YouTube ads and telesales. We rely on word-of-mouth, honest content, and students telling other students. That’s a huge chunk of their P&L we don’t carry.
No investor pressure to monetise. No sales quota. The only “metric” is aspirants passing. That lets us skip the freemium funnel entirely.
If running costs ever outgrow what one person can cover, we’ll add an optional donation link. Core features will always be free for everyone.
We store the minimum required to run your personalised plan: your email, your answers, and your scores. We don’t sell, license, or share this with third parties. We don’t run ad pixels that track you across the web.
