Ikigai your why

Your child's future is being decided
by a list that's 30 years out of date.

Most Indian families navigate stream selection and career choices based on what they know — Engineering, Medicine, CA, Law, MBA. That's roughly 8–10 options. Meanwhile, the modern world has created thousands of careers that match different intelligences, different personalities, different ways of being. Nobody told your child.

What most parents think the options are
Engineering Medicine CA / Finance Law MBA Civil Services Teaching Banking
what your child is actually missing
Marine Biologist Behavioral Economist Urban Planner Forensic Accountant Sound Designer UX Researcher Environmental Lawyer Robotics Engineer Sports Psychologist Computational Biologist Sustainability Consultant Game Developer Cybersecurity Analyst Art Therapist Data Journalist Neuromarketer ...and 2,983 more
3,000+
Careers in our psychometric system
One of them is the perfect match for your child's unique combination of personality, intelligence, and interest.

We don't pick a career for your child.
We find their Ikigai.

Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means "reason for being." It sits at the intersection of four questions — and it's the difference between a career someone tolerates and a career that genuinely fits.

Most career counselling picks from one dimension: marks, or market demand, or parental preference. We map all four — your child's natural intelligence, what excites them, where they can genuinely excel, and where the world will pay for that. Then we show them the careers where everything converges.

What clarity actually looks like

Not testimonials. Real before-and-after moments from students and families we've worked with.

"My son is in Class 10. We assumed Science PCM because he's good at Maths. He had no idea what to do after that."
The assessment revealed strong spatial intelligence and a deep interest in systems thinking — not software, but urban infrastructure. He's now targeting NIT Civil Engineering with a clear post-graduation plan.
"She was patient and supportive while talking to my son, which made him comfortable enough to open up about what he really wants to do in life."

"My daughter wanted to do something creative but we kept steering her toward Commerce because 'at least she'd have options.'"
High emotional intelligence + verbal ability + creative interest. Assessment pointed to UX Research and Design Strategy — a field that pays well and is in serious demand across Indian tech. She got clarity before Class 11 choices.
"She took the time to understand my daughter's interests, strengths, and motivations through thoughtful conversations and a science-backed assessment."

"As a Class 9 student I felt completely lost. I didn't know what I was good at, let alone what career to pursue."
The assessment uncovered strong logical-linguistic intelligence and an unusual combination of analytical and social interests — pointing clearly toward Behavioural Science or Psychology. A path nobody had mentioned before.
"MyLaunchpad provided me with the clarity and understanding that really changed the game for me."

She's been a scientist, a corporate leader, and a mentor.

Rekha Pillai's career doesn't fit neatly into any box — which is exactly why she understands that your child's shouldn't either. A Research Scientist who worked on projects for NASA and the US Department of Defense, she went on to lead HR and marketing at senior corporate levels in the US and India.

"I changed careers more than once. I know what it feels like to be on the wrong path — and I know the difference it makes when someone helps you find the right one."

That breadth across STEM, business, and human behaviour means she can genuinely map students across every stream — not just steer them toward what's familiar or safe. Together with her leadership team, she brings over 30 years of lived experience across geographies, industries, and roles to every session. Parents are always welcome — because the best career decisions are made when families understand them together.
