IIT Kharagpur has launched a free AI tutor and an accompanying online platform designed to support preparation for India’s GATE and JAM entrance exams. The initiative focuses on helping students study more effectively without relying on paid coaching programs.
According to the outlets, the platform includes guided AI-based learning and exam-preparation resources, with one reported feature allowing users to “scan and ask,” suggesting students can submit materials for the system to answer questions. The coverage also frames the launch as a way to address barriers faced by students due to cost and location, aiming to widen access to structured exam preparation.
While all sources agree on the core announcement and the free access element, they differ slightly in emphasis: one highlights the AI tutor as a “scan and ask” tool, while others stress the broader goal of reducing dependence on expensive coaching and reaching students who may have fewer options.
