Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Sumit, founder of Swaadhigam (स्वाधिगम, "learning by oneself").
About a million people apply for India's UPSC Civil Services exam every year. The final stage, Mains, is nine handwritten, essay-style papers, and the skill that decides it (writing a good answer in 7–11 minutes) is the hardest one to practise alone. Getting an answer checked usually means paying a coaching institute and waiting days for your copy to come back.
Swaadhigam exists so that an aspirant studying on their own, in any city and in Hindi or English, can get every answer checked the same day.
What it does:
✍️ Answer review. Write on paper, photograph it, and get it scored by dimension against a key-points rubric, with comments annotated on your own sheet like an examiner's copy. English or Hindi.
📚 Notes. Bilingual (English + Hindi) notes for every General Studies subject, CSAT and Essay, plus 9 Optional subjects.
🗂️ Past papers. Model answers for previous-year Mains questions, and Prelims papers since 2015 with explanations. Free, no login.
🗺️ Roadmap. One path from Prelims to Mains, with progress and streaks.
🎧 Mentors. 1:1 video sessions with verified UPSC qualifiers, right in the browser.
It's free to start: 5 AI reviews a month and the first chapter of every subject, no card needed. Pro unlocks the rest.
Built in Jaipur. I'd love your feedback, especially on the review flow. Happy to answer anything about building for a Hindi + English audience or grading handwritten answers with LLMs 🙏
