More than access

Membership turns a visit into a continuing journey.

The website introduces Vidyame. The app becomes a member’s personal home: a place to save, study, ask, participate, practise, and return—with sources and provenance always visible.

The member experience

One home for learning, inquiry and participation.

Membership connects experiences that would otherwise remain scattered across reading apps, videos, social platforms, private notes, discussion groups, and calendars.

A personal home

Save sources, questions, journeys, people, Kendras, and the knowledge you want to return to.

How access works

Free to encounter the source. Membership to go deeper.

The boundary is principled: sources and provenance remain accessible; membership sustains curation, advanced learning, community, creator work, and richer tools.

01 · Free, always

Open Access

The civilizational source should remain visible and approachable. Membership should never hide the existence or identity of an authentic source.

  • Browse the Discover corpus
  • See and read authentic sources
  • Understand provenance and source type

A family learning together through stories, language, sources, practice, and memory

Membership for families

A shared home with protected individual journeys.

Family membership should support parent-managed young learner profiles, shared collections, story and language learning, festival pathways, family Kendras, and intergenerational projects—without placing children in unrestricted adult spaces.

Members & creators

Membership helps meaningful work continue.

Members can follow creators, join learning series, enter creator-led Kendras, attend sessions, and support new work. Future paid offerings should state benefits, duration, creator responsibility, platform terms, and cancellation clearly.

The membership promise

Trust should be visible before payment.

Membership is meant to sustain knowledge, creators, communities, and responsible product development—not obscure sources or exploit attention.

01

Sources remain visible

Free access should preserve the learner’s ability to identify and encounter authentic sources.

02

No manufactured lock-in

Cancellation should be clear, and members should understand what remains accessible afterward.

03

Pricing before payment

Plan, renewal, tax, trial, cancellation, and refund conditions appear before purchase.

04

Privacy with restraint

Membership should not require unnecessary personal data or turn learning behaviour into advertising inventory.

05

Creators treated fairly

Paid participation should help sustain meaningful creator work under transparent terms.

06

Access considered globally

Regional affordability, family needs, educational access, and support options should inform future plans.
