In a major step toward redefining competitive exam preparation in India, Digital Benchers, a personalized online learning platform for self-learners, has announced its launch along with receiving Seed Funding from the Government of India under the Startup IndiaSeed Fund Scheme (SISF).
Founded by Quasif Ansari, Ashish Kumar, Amit Shishodia, and Sunny Rustagi, all of whom have deep roots in the Indian EdTech sector, Digital Benchers is built on a powerful insight: while content has become widely available, students still lack personalized support, structured guidance, and meaningful mentorship.
“Despite all the noise in Ed-Tech, the most important stake holder—the student—was being neglected,” said Quasif Ansari, CEO of Digital Benchers. “We saw a system that was
content-heavy but direction less. That’s why we created Digital Benchers—to put learners back at the center.”
The platform addresses long-standing flaws in both traditional and digital education models, including rigid pacing, one-size-fits-all delivery, and the absence of holistic career guidance. Digital Benchers aims to change this by offering personalized study plans, trackable learning, curated handwritten notes by toppers, structured video courses and personalized counselling tailored for competitive exams.
The user journey on Digital Benchers is designed to be transformative. Learners select their exam goal, take a diagnostic test, and receive a customized study roadmap aligned with their learning pace, strengths, and daily routine. The platform dynamically evolves based on the user’s progress—offering flexibility that most platforms lack.
The seed funding from SISF will be used to enhance the platform’s AI-driven learning engine, expand content offerings, and launch its pro version. The support from the Government of India underscores the growing need for personalized, student-led solutions in the education space.
“We’re not just another EdTech platform,” said the founders. “We’re building a new category of learning—where education adapts to the learner, not the other way around.”
With Digital Benchers now live, the team is on a mission to empower self-learners across India with tools that are flexible, relevant, and built around real success—not just syllabus completion.
