SikhiToTheMax is a site developed originally in August 2000 and was the first internet search engine that searched Gurbani (Sikh scriptures). The site was founded by Tarsem Singh (SHARE Charity UK) and was handed over to Khalis Foundation (California, USA) to continue development on the site. Khalis re-imagined and re-built the website from the ground up with latest technologies and coding languages as well as building a brand new desktop application for use in Gurdwaras around the world.
SikhiToTheMax changed how people interact with Gurbani inside and outside of Sikh Gurdwaras. At Kirtan events, rehansbhais, smagams and other programs, SikhiToTheMax quickly became standard requirements to display Shabads on-screen so the Sangat (congregations) could easily read or sing along.
