On a mission to make economics intuitive

About

Hi, I'm Shaunak and I am an incoming Economics & Finance student and the founder of EconLab. I built it because I believe economics shouldn't feel like memorizing graphs and definitions- it should be interactive, visual, and connected to the real world. I am passionate about combining economics, technology, and AI to create learning experiences that students actually enjoy using. My goal is to build products that make high-quality education more accessible and help people understand how the world works through economics.This is just the beginning. I am excited to keep learning, building, and turning ambitious ideas into products that have a real impact. If you are interested in education, startups, economics, or finance, I would love to connect and hear your thoughts.

EconLab - The modern way to learn economics

EconLab is a free economics learning platform built to make economics intuitive, interactive and engaging. Instead of memorizing definitions, explore World Bank data, AI-powered explanations, visual insights, quizzes, and economic concepts in plain English. Whether you're studying IB, AP, A-Level, or just curious about economics, EconLab helps you understand how economics works in the real world- not just in textbooks.
