About Lokal

Access & Empowerment for Bharat through AI and Local Language Internet

Lokal is India’s largest regional content and services platform, built for the 500 million+ internet users from tier 2+ towns.

Founded by IIT alumni, Lokal started in 2018 to address the lack of relevant local content and now goes beyond content to solve real, everyday problems of Bharat. Growing as a house of apps, Lokal is evolving into an AI-driven discovery and access platform—connecting users in tier 2+ India with the experts, tools, and knowledge they’ve historically lacked access to:

• Lokal Matrimony – Location-based matchmaking apps focused on hyperlocal compatibility.
• Lokal Jobs – Hyperlocal job discovery platform connecting blue- and grey-collar workers with nearby opportunities.
• GyanTV – Skill-based learning in regional languages (stocks, photography, small business & more).
• Dostt – Make new friends through voice chats, games, and real, authentic conversations.
• Eaze – A safe space to explore emotional well-being via community-driven support.
• AstroLokal – Instant access to trusted astrologers through audio and chat.
