They had a powerful vision for India’s cultural and social future — but no digital home to share it. And no way for non-tech team members to contribute.
Mithilesh started Bharatsaga Foundation to spark thoughtful dialogue on India’s development, heritage, and values. But their old WordPress site was clunky, slow, and hard to update. Publishing a single article required tech help. No comments. No engagement. No growth. 'We’re a think tank,' Mithilesh said, 'but our website felt like a graveyard.' They needed a platform that reflected their vision — and one that his team, most of whom weren’t tech-savvy, could actually use.
You didn’t make us learn tech. You made tech work for us. That’s what we needed.
Mithilesh Kumar
Founder, Bharatsaga Foundation
We didn’t just build a website — we built a living platform for ideas.
We started with identity. We crafted a visual language that felt grounded, respectful, and modern — one that honored the depth of their mission. Then, we built a clean, fast, and engaging website using Next.js and Vercel — where every article breathes. But the real win? We replaced their old WordPress setup with **Contentful**, a headless CMS that lets non-technical team members publish content in minutes — no developer needed. We added comment sections for dialogue, a newsletter sign-up powered by **Resend & Omnisend**, and seamless content migration from their old site. The entire platform was built to be **owned by the team — not locked behind tech debt**.
From digital silence to vibrant conversation — in just 3 weeks.
In less than a month, Bharatsaga Foundation went from a forgotten WordPress site to a dynamic, easy-to-manage platform where ideas could grow. Team members now publish articles themselves. Readers engage with comments. Subscribers get updates. And Mithilesh? He finally has a digital voice that matches his vision. 'Coming from a non-tech background,' he said, 'it was fresh to see we could rest our tech burden on a trusted set of people.' That trust? It’s the real win.
