About Saif Shaikh
I am the Co-founder of Thinkerbell Labs, where we’re disrupting the way the visually impaired learn across the globe. We have built a tech ecosystem to enable self-learning and classroom teaching of Braille. Our flagship product ‘Annie’ is the world\'s first Braille literacy device. Annie is a smart, connected device that helps a visually impaired person learn to read, write, and type in Braille on their own while making it easier for other sighted stakeholders to get involved in their education. As an ed-tech organisation, we are combining innovative technology, new teaching practices and the best of curricula to bring out interactive, engaging and gamified learning experiences. Building the best learning systems for visually impaired require hardware interventions. I handle all aspects of the organisation concerning with hardware product development across the entire development cycle. I work in building IPs around Braille input and output technologies which form the core of our products. You can reach me at
