Pro add-ons
Sikshya Pro is a separate plugin you install on top of the free Sikshya LMS. After activating your license under Sikshya → License, you toggle individual add-ons in Sikshya → Add-ons.
License plans control which add-ons you can turn on:
- Starter — entry-level paid tier.
- Growth — most use cases.
- Scale — agency, enterprise, marketplace.
Below is every add-on with what it does, where it lives in the admin, and an "Upgrade" link.
All plans include free updates and priority support. Pick the plan that includes the add-ons you need — you can always upgrade later.
