Even though the idea may seem similar to the startup featured on Shark Tank India, Granty operates in a completely different way. Our main focus is automating the entire scholarship application process, eliminating the need for manual intervention. This removes the hassle and tedious tasks for students, ensuring they never miss an opportunity. What sets us apart is our unique operational model. We plan to partner with scholarship providers, institutions, and schools. By doing this, we make the entire process seamless—from applying to verification. Students can apply to multiple scholarships at once through Granty, and our partnerships will ensure faster, smoother verification, creating a hassle-free experience unlike anything in the space. I've explained the same thing in a better way for a doubt of Ajay Krishna just below , do check it out & it also covers what happens when a students qualifies for multiple scholarships
The ideation for MyPeace stemmed from the pressing need for accessible mental health support, particularly among youth facing challenges like depression, anxiety, and overthinking. Recognizing that many young individuals hesitate to seek help due to stigma and concerns about privacy, I envisioned a platform that offers affordable, anonymous counseling. MyPeace addresses these barriers by connecting users with trained professionals through calls and chats, allowing them to express their feelings in a safe environment. The model promotes accessibility by charging minimal fees while ensuring quality support. Counselors are onboarded on a commission basis, which aligns their incentives with providing effective assistance. To launch and scale this initiative, I am seeking Rs. 30 lakhs in funding. This investment will be utilized for developing the platform, hiring trained professionals, marketing to reach our target audience, and establishing a robust support system. With this funding, MyPeace can create a transformative impact in mental health care, making it more inclusive and supportive for all.
Great idea , it's not the place where you just dump it . If you wanna catch some attention for your idea , just make a public post as this comment space is for answering and giving briefs about my idea granty .

The idea for MyPeace emerged from recognizing the mental health challenges faced by the youth today, such as depression, overthinking, and demotivation. Despite the increasing awareness around mental health, many individuals struggle to access affordable and reliable support. Stigma and privacy concerns often prevent people from seeking help openly. I wanted to address these barriers by creating a platform that offers an anonymous, safe space where users can share their issues without judgment. MyPeace aims to make mental health support accessible and affordable. The platform connects users with trained counselors through calls and chats, providing a personalized experience at minimal cost. The idea was to provide not just professional help but also a sense of community where people feel heard and supported. The platform is tailored to meet the needs of young people, leveraging digital tools to provide services in a way that feels comfortable and approachable. By onboarding counselors on a commission basis, we ensure quality service without compromising affordability.
my first doubt is u have said that it automatically applies once we upload all the documents . A person gets only one scholarship at a time not multiple 1) suppose it automatically applies for the 50,000 scholarship and u are also eligible for 1 lakh scholarship. what are the criteria does it takes to automatically apply ? and How do u get the prioritize the student which scholarship does he should get . 2) suppose let's assume he had got a scholarship of 50,000 and within few days there will be another notification that it give upto 1 lakh . At the same time he will be eligible for the second scholarship but he will not get 2 scholarship at a same time . does he ? 1 person cannot apply for multiple scholarship at a same time yes or no ? It is my curiosity, that led the doubts how it goes .. 😊
A student can apply for multiple scholarships, even though they can only receive one at a time. For example, if a student qualifies for both a ₹50k and ₹1 lakh scholarship, the system will select the better option for them. The provider of the ₹50k scholarship will then be notified to offer it to another eligible candidate, ensuring that both students benefit from the available scholarships. To avoid students missing better opportunities, we plan to implement a standby period. This will allow students to receive multiple offers and choose the best one. To speed up the process, we will partner with scholarship providers and educational institutions to streamline application, verification, and allocation. Regarding selection, we don't prioritize student profiles—each organization has its own criteria. Our role is to present students with the best available scholarships based on their qualifications, making the choice easier. If you have any further questions or need clarification, feel free to ask.
Basically it’s a game changer for students who’re entering into colleges especially. Because they’ll have more options and less time to figure out perfectly. Using “GRANTY” like platforms students can easily short list some important colleges which offers more scholarships. But implementing this app takes a lot of research and work and permissions So, it’s a time taking process but a good process EOD. All the best to the team
