About

Established in 2020, MetricFeed is a youth-led company that has worked in various fields covering IT, multimedia content creation, website development, and archiving & research.

Despite landing in the middle of an unprecedented pandemic just a few short months into our journey, we have been able to not just survive but grow in the last few years. The backbone of Team Metricfeed is the fusion of academic excellence, technical expertise and creative vision embodied by all those who live and breathe MetricFeed.

The basic idea was to bring together the best of Bengal’s talent pool under one umbrella and do some work that really mattered.

As youngsters faced with the imposing world of today’s economy, we wanted to take up the challenge of creating well-researched sophisticated content, bring in tech-based innovations and do meaningful work without giving into click-baiting and yellow journalism. This gave birth to our maiden venture, our flagship product—Prohor.in. This is a feature-based Bengali portal that specializes in high quality written and audio-visual content along with a rich stream of live programming.

As Prohor gradually became popular with readers/viewers from all over the world, we began to expand our scope of operations and put all our creative energy into not just brining alive our own vision but learn how to deliver and execute the ideas of our clients.

Though it has been an uphill battle, our little startup has survived even when most of the other startups that came up around the same time have closed down or dwindling. We believe it is the hard work, commitment, intellectual & creative efforts, tenacity, and innovative attitude of our team that has led us here.

Once we committed to this journey, we decided to stick to it no matter the challenges. We haven’t looked back ever since…!

We express our deepest gratitude to all the mentors, friends, colleagues & co-workers who have contributed to our journey. Without the good wishes, trust and help of all these people, we wouldn’t have made it!
