Updated 22 October 2026
Sikhami is a social network for learners. With one free account you can follow people, share what you are learning, watch short learning videos, join study groups, read notes, play quizzes and take courses.
Sikhami is for every kind of learning, not only exams. You will find school subjects and competitive exams, but also music, dance, languages, trades, sports, coding, cooking and much more. You can use it on the website, sikhami.com, and in the Sikhami Android app, with the same account.
Who Sikhami is for
- Learners: school and college students, exam aspirants, and anyone learning a skill or a hobby. You can follow other learners, join clubs and study rooms, read notes, play quizzes and take courses.
- Teachers: you can make a teacher profile, create video courses, share notes, host study rooms and go live. See Teacher profile.
- Institutes and coaching centres: you can make an institute page, list courses, add your team, and manage batches, fees and online students. See Create an institute.
- Creators: you can post clips, photos, polls and voice posts, sell a membership for members-only clips, and earn from paid notes, clubs, meetups and study rooms. See Sell on Sikhami.
Teachers and institutes do not need a separate account. You log in the same way as a learner, then open Learning studio.

What is free and what is paid
Making an account is free, and so is using Sikhami to post, follow, message, watch clips and join free clubs, meetups, notes and courses.
Some things cost money because the person who made them sets a price:
- Paid courses, notes, clubs, meetups and study rooms. The lowest price anyone can set is ₹25.
- Memberships, which unlock a creator's members-only clips. See Memberships.
- Super Chat, a paid message that is pinned above the other messages for a time that depends on how much you pay. See Super Chat.
- Ads, if you want to promote something you made. See The Ads Manager.
On the website you pay through Sikhami's payment gateway. Inside the Android app, digital items are paid through Google Play. Buyers pay the same price either way. See How to pay.
The website and the Android app
The website works on computers and also in the browser of a phone or tablet. The Sikhami app for Android phones is on Google Play. Your account, posts, followers, messages and courses are the same on both.
There is no Sikhami app for iPhone or iPad. On those devices, open sikhami.com in your browser. See The Sikhami Android app.
