What’s inside
Simple, but powerful.
Every part of Giani exists for one reason: to keep showing up easy, and to actually teach you something each time.
Daily Set
Five questions. A new mix every morning.
Multiple choice, myth-or-fact, fill-in-the-blank, put-in-order, spot-the-mistake. Covering Punjabi culture, history, religion, language, food, and festivals.
Word of the Day
A deep longing. A wish that lives quietly inside you for years without ever being said out loud.
Streaks
A tiny, addictive reason to come back. Keep the flame alive.
Your rating
Your rating climbs as you answer correctly, and dips a little when you slip. A simple number that tracks how Punjabi you actually are.
Built for people who never got the chance to learn this stuff growing up.
No Punjabi required. Just curiosity and two minutes.
A note from us
Why we built Giani
Most of us grew up between two worlds. We went to gurdwara but didn’t fully understand what was happening. We heard our parents use words we pretended to know. There was never a simple, fun way to actually learn your own culture — until now.
A Giani is someone who is deeply knowledgeable, wise, and cultured. We named the app Giani because that’s what we want you to become. One day at a time.
Made by a few of us, for all of us.
From Kitchener, Ontario 🇨🇦
