About story
Baatu Story

Baatu Technologies is a pioneering company dedicated to enhancing children’s digital well-being through innovative technology solutions. With expertise spanning cybersecurity, child psychology, and educational technology, Baatu empowers families by fostering trust and transparency in the digital age.

Their flagship product, the Child Online Protection (COP) App, is designed for parents, helping them create a safe and enriching digital environment for their children.

To accelerate adoption and expand its reach, Baatu partnered with upGrowth to conduct a growth audit, manage paid ad execution, and provide consultation for scaling strategies across Indian and international markets.

Identified Challenges

Despite a strong vision and impactful product, COP App faced challenges that limited its growth:

  • Low discoverability and brand visibility among parents concerned with digital safety.
  • Gaps in app UI, communication, and Play Store presence that affected user experience and trust.
  • Inefficient tracking and funnel clarity make it challenging to measure and optimise conversions.
  • Need to scale installs and parent signups cost-effectively, while preparing for international market entry.

Goal: Create a sustainable growth framework that builds awareness, increases app installs and parent signups, and improves the overall user experience.

Period: May 2025 – Sept 2025

Initial Situation

  • COP App, developed by Baatu Technologies, aimed to safeguard children’s digital well-being and empower parents with a reliable monitoring solution.
  • Despite a strong vision and impactful product, the app struggled with low discoverability, gaps in UI/UX and communication, and limited visibility in the Play Store.
  • Tracking was inefficient, making it difficult to measure user activation and optimise conversions.

Starting Point

  • The app had steady installs, but a large proportion of users dropped off before signup or child profile setup.
  • Parent sign ups were minimal, uninstall rates were higher than industry benchmarks, and the overall funnel lacked clarity for scaling campaigns cost-effectively.

Objective

  • Build a sustainable growth framework to improve discoverability and adoption.
  • Increase installs, verified parent signups, and child profile completions.
  • Optimise communication and onboarding to reduce friction and uninstalls.
  • Improve tracking accuracy to measure performance across the funnel.
  • Prepare the app for scalable growth in Tier 1 & Tier 2 Indian cities while laying the foundation for international expansion (US, UK, UAE).

I had the privilege of working with Amol during a crucial phase of our journey at Baatu and ParentCop. What stood out instantly was his ability to think in systems, not silos.

upGrowth becomes a true partner in both product engineering and growth strategy. They helped us bridge the gap between what we were building and how it needed to scale in the real world. From tightening our product logic, refining user flows, and setting up growth loops to running high-ROI experiments, they have fingerprints all over the foundation that make ParentCop what it is today.

What I valued most was his ability to combine clarity with execution. He could zoom out and challenge our big-picture assumptions while simultaneously getting his hands dirty with the details—whether it was optimizing acquisition funnels, designing scalable systems, or setting up metrics that actually mattered.

If you’re looking for someone who won’t just “advise” but will engineer growth into your product DNA, Amol is the person you want on your side.
