Our Team
The educators, examiners and engineers who build Prayaas, and the standard they hold themselves to.
Who builds Prayaas
Educators first, technologists second.
Prayaas is built by a small team in Dehradun: classroom teachers, former CBSE examiners and engineers, working alongside the schools that host our centres.
That mix is deliberate. An assessment company staffed only by engineers builds a clever product that misreads a child. One staffed only by teachers cannot deliver a report that is accurate to the mark, on time, for thousands of students at once. We need both in the room.
Nobody on this team is paid by a coaching centre, and nobody has an incentive to move a score. That independence is the product.
Classroom teachers
People who have taught the syllabus, marked the papers, and sat with a student who did not understand why they lost the marks.
Former CBSE examiners
Evaluators who know the board marking scheme from the inside, so a Prayaas script is marked the way a real board script is marked.
Engineers
The people who turn a stack of answer scripts into an 8-page diagnostic report, and keep the exam-day systems boringly reliable.
School partners
Principals and coordinators across Dehradun who host centres, challenge our assumptions, and keep us honest about what schools actually need.
We would rather tell a parent something difficult and true than something comfortable and useless.
The standard every report is held to, before it leaves this team.
The people
Who you are trusting.
Rahul Singh
Business Development Manager
Has explained the difference between a practice test and a real mock board to more principals than anyone should have to. If your school hosts a Prayaas centre, the first cup of chai was probably shared with Rahul.
Saurabh
Developer
Turns a pile of marked answer sheets into a report a parent can finish in one sitting. Marks the code far more strictly than any examiner marks a script.
Pradip
Developer
Keeps exam-day systems boringly reliable, which is the highest compliment a developer can be paid. Around here, "it works on my machine" is not accepted as a result.
Rishit
Designer
Designs an 8-page diagnostic report that a 15-year-old will actually read to the end. Holds strong and surprisingly persuasive views on how a percentile should look on paper.
Riya
SEO
Makes sure the parent searching "is my child ready for the boards" at one in the morning finds an honest answer instead of an advertisement.
Akansha
Digital Marketer
Turns dense diagnostic data into something a parent will stop scrolling for. Equally fluent in CBSE marking schemes and in captions.
Anamika
Digital Marketer
Answers the questions parents are too polite to ask in the school group chat, and can explain the Board Readiness Score without once saying "algorithm".
Vaani Jayati
Digital Strategist
Decides which of the hundred things Prayaas could say this month are the three actually worth saying. Plans a campaign the way a good teacher plans a term.
