Platform
Five specialised agents. One conversation.
NIGOC is not a chatbot wrapped around a search box. It is a coordinated set of agentic LLMs — each trained for a specific stage of the Indian admissions journey, sharing a knowledge base of every UGC-recognised institution, every state board curriculum, every active scholarship, and every Indian entrance exam.
How it works
Four steps from "I don't know" to "Admission confirmed."
01
Tell us once.
Share board, stream, board % so far, JEE/NEET/CUET predicted score, budget, preferred state, and home language. The agent listens in your language — Hindi, Bengali, Odia, Tamil, anything.
02
We map your options.
The Admission Advisor and Career Predictor rank colleges and streams against your profile from UGC's AISHE 2024-25 catalog, scoring affordability, placement record, and entrance-exam fit.
03
We hunt money.
The Scholarship Match Engine scans every Central + state + private scholarship currently open — typically 60-200 hits per student — surfaces eligibility and deadlines, and pre-fills the applications.
04
We rehearse with you.
The SOP & Mock Interview agent drafts and critiques every essay, and runs voice-mode interview practice for institutions that require one. You walk in confident.
The Five Agents
Each one is good at one thing. Together they replace a counselor.
AI Admission Advisor
22 languages GAConversational LLM agent that guides students through college and university admissions. The agent reads the student's transcript, predicts entrance-exam outcomes, and recommends a shortlist of UGC-recognised colleges that fit on academic fit, affordability, and geographic reach.
Scholarship Match Engine
8,400+ scholarships GARetrieval-augmented LLM matching of every active Indian government and private scholarship against a student's profile in seconds. Surfaces eligibility criteria, application deadline, document requirements, and pre-fills the National Scholarship Portal form where applicable.
Career Pathway Predictor
stream selector GAPredicts probable 5-, 10- and 15-year career trajectories from a student's stream choice, board grades, and stated interests using domain-tuned LLMs. Maps each path to required entrance exams, expected starting salary, MoM growth in India's job market, and skill gaps.
AI SOP & Mock Interview
voice mode GADrafts and critiques Statements of Purpose, scholarship motivation letters, and admissions interview answers. Voice-mode mock interviews with structured feedback on content, clarity, pace, filler-word use, and confidence — calibrated to the institution's typical interview format.
Multi-Lingual Counselor (Bharat)
22 languages GAThe same agentic counselor in every major Indian language. The English version is the model; the rest are equal first-class citizens. NIGOC's stance: we will not launch a feature in English that we are not ready to launch in Hindi and at least 4 regional languages.

Data residency · DPDP
Your student's data stays in India.
All student conversations, profiles, transcripts, scholarship applications, and voice recordings are stored exclusively in AWS Asia Pacific (Mumbai) region — ap-south-1. We do not replicate any student data outside India.
LLM inference happens in the same region; in the rare case Anthropic Claude is invoked cross-region for capacity, only ephemeral input/output pass through and nothing is persisted outside ap-south-1. Our Data Processing Agreement with Anthropic is on file under the AWS Bedrock Service Terms.
NIGOC complies with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023. The full data-handling policy lives on the privacy page; our grievance officer is Niranjan Sethi.
Transparency
When NIGOC is not enough.
No agent replaces a counselor in every situation. NIGOC will explicitly recommend a human counselor or institutional admissions office in cases like:
- • Students applying internationally (US/UK undergrad, where personal counselors with US placement records still have an edge).
- • Specialised diploma decisions (e.g. ITI vs polytechnic vs degree) where local skill-market knowledge dominates over national data.
- • Mental-health concerns surfacing during the counseling conversation. The agent will hand off to a Vandrevala Foundation referral and notify the parent contact on file.
- • Cases requiring legal aid (e.g. caste certificate disputes, reservation policy challenges) — referred to LegalDost / state Legal Services Authority.
