A few months ago, a person approached me to build an education platform like PhysicsWallah.

I asked simple questions:

• How many batches you currently have ?
• How many students per batch?

They avoided giving clear numbers. And that was the problem.

Because you can’t design the right system without understanding the current scale.

PhysicsWallah operates at a completely different level. Their tech is built for their scale.

If your business is still growing, copying them is not strategy. It’s overkill.

It’s like trying to implement Salesforce in a small setup. Wrong stage. Wrong complexity.

Good software is not about copying competitors. It’s about matching your current reality and enabling growth.

What do you think ?
