PhysicsWallah prepares over 36 millions of students across India for competitive exams, and government entrance exams.
Their AI doubt-solving tool, Ask AI, found that 52% of students learn better through audio. A text-only tool was leaving half their users behind.
They integrated ElevenLabs to turn Ask AI into a voice AI tutor - with native Hinglish support, because that is how their students actually speak.
Students who learn by listening, stay:
- 3x more queries per session vs. non-voice users
- 2.4x higher retention at Day 15

Last month my intern asked for help with a Kubernetes error.
He was stuck on a YAML file.
He looked desperate.
I make $275,000 a year.
I haven't written a line of code since 2017.
I don't even know what a "pod" is.
But I didn't tell him that.
I leaned back in my Herman Miller chair.
I said, "Stop trying to code. Start prompting."
I told him to paste the error into ChatGPT.
He did.
The AI told him to delete the cluster.
He did.
Production went down instantly.
The CEO called me screaming.
I didn't panic.
I told the CEO we were "testing our disaster recovery protocols."
He was impressed by my foresight.
I got a bonus.
The intern got fired.
Innovation requires sacrifice.
Just not mine.
@akshad_999@visha19430 I actually solved the same thing in my org recently :)
Without a queue-based refresh token mechanism, you end up with a race condition where every API call that gets a 401 tries to refresh the token at the same time. That results in conflicting refresh attempts and stale tokens.
