Xed Intellect

What Xed Intellect does

Xed Intellect is a privately-held, bootstrapped education technology company founded in April 2008 in Pune, India, that delivers online learning, training, assessment, and placement assistance solutions to Indian B-schools and management institutes. The company operates an integrated platform spanning content delivery (Domain, Aptitude, Current Affairs, Communication, and Spoken English training), testing (a randomized online assessment engine with division-wise performance analytics), certification (Xed CBA, a 12-week business awareness program positioned as India's first of its kind), and a recruitment marketplace (XedScore) connecting MBA students with corporate recruiters.

The company's core technology is a web-based online testing platform featuring unique student/faculty login IDs, randomized question delivery to deter copying, continuous evaluation through topic-wise assessments, and a proprietary question bank exceeding 50,000 MCQs and case-based questions across 45 subjects at three difficulty levels. Sub-brands (Xed English, XedScore, Xed CBA, Xed Knowledge, Xed Newsletter) share this underlying content and assessment infrastructure.

Xed Intellect monetizes through one-time license fees (Rs 10,000 for Xed English; Rs 1,000 per participant for CBA), subscription/recurring assessment contracts with B-schools, and freemium placement services for recruiters. Distribution occurs via direct institutional sales to placement officers and corporate training departments across 70+ Indian B-schools, including Symbiosis institutes (SCMHRD, SIMS), Lexicon, and APTECH. The company is led by founder-CEO Rajyavardhan Tater and operates with a small leadership team and an 11-50 employee headcount.
