Why teams pick it

Three things you get on day one

  1. Clean any article

    Trafilatura extraction strips ads, sidebars, and modals. You read the words, not the chrome.

    Benefit 1 of 3
  2. PYQ matches surfaced

    Every paragraph is checked against the past-paper vector index — see which Mains questions your reading actually addresses.

    Benefit 2 of 3
  3. SSRF-safe outbound fetch

    URLs are checked against an allow-list before fetch — RFC1918, link-local, and cloud-metadata IPs are rejected at the edge.

    Benefit 3 of 3

How it works

From input to output, in three

  1. Step 1input

    Paste a URL

    Any public http(s) article. Major Indian dailies — The Hindu, Indian Express, PIB — work out of the box.

  2. Step 2process

    Read the cleaned text

    Title, byline, body — typography optimized for long-form reading. No ads, no popups, no comments section.

  3. Step 3output

    See PYQ matches

    Embedding-based top-K matches against the past-paper index. Click through to the question stem and try writing an answer.

Built for

Three readers we kept in mind

Newspaper-first reader
use case

Wakes up to The Hindu and Indian Express; wants to know which articles map to past papers, not just headlines.

PIB sweeper
use case

Pulls 5–10 PIB releases a week — needs them clean, embedded, and queryable later from PYQ Explorer.

Editorial maximizer
use case

Reads two editorials a day; expects matched PYQs to nudge them toward writing answers, not just notes.
