The Microsoft Teams alternative built for live classes
Teams is a powerful workplace tool. For coaching institutes, it often brings more setup than teaching.

Why institutes choose SuperMeet over Teams
Students don't need accounts
On Teams, students usually need organisation accounts or join as guests with extra steps. On SuperMeet, a student taps the class link and is in.
Built around the class, not the channel
Teams is organised around teams, chats and files. SuperMeet is organised around the class: schedule it, teach on TeacherZone, then get the recording and attendance.
Simple per-class pricing
No per-user Microsoft 365 licences. Pay ₹30 per class-hour for up to 50 students.
When Teams makes sense
Schools and colleges that already run on Microsoft 365, and use Teams for assignments and staff communication, may prefer to stay. Many still use SuperMeet for the live teaching itself.
