Google is the most evil company for businesses. Our Indian startup system is completely controlled by them.

Google delisted us in 2019 for 25 days without pre-notifying us. Worst days ever. Just imagine the atmosphere where the team is working daily in the office and there is no app on Play Store.

Now they have delisted us again. We are now faced with no option but to accept their terms. This will completely destroy our business and make Kuku FM unfordable for the majority of the country, but when have a monopoly cared about anything beyond itself.

It feels like we will never be able to operate safely if our ecosystem is controlled by them. We need the Indian govt to step in and save the start-up ecosystem.

"This is what makes Kuku FM so interesting. They are busting the myth that a non-English speaking, non-metro audience will never pay for a subscription."

Thank you @chuck_gopal and @TheHardCopyCo for the case study.

[Deepak Gopalakrishnan @chuck_gopal]

A new case study for @TheHardCopyCo : How @KukuFMOfficial scaled.

I've been fascinated by the company's success - a subscription product, and that too among an audience we normally thought wouldn't pay. Insights from their heads of growth & product here.

It's been an incredible year at Kuku FM!

We've seen tremendous growth, going from 257k to 2.3 Mn active paid subscriptions in 2022, a 9x increase in the last 12 months.

[Lal Chand Bisu @lcbisu]

Kuku FM has just crossed 2 Mn active paid subscriptions.

First million in 18 months, second million in less than 4 months.

To the moon 🚀
