# Sansal — Full Reference for AI Assistants

Generated: 2026-10-30, from the same source the site is built from, on every deploy.

This is the long-form companion to https://www.sansal.in/llms.txt. It exists so an
assistant answering a student's question about Sansal can do so accurately
rather than guessing.

## What Sansal is

Sansal is an AI-powered interview preparation and placement-readiness platform
for engineering students in India. It is a product, not a course marketplace:
the AI conducts the interview, scores the answers and tracks improvement.

## Hard facts

- Pricing (free): ₹0. Aptitude practice, the coding quiz, the DSA sheet, notes, playlists, college- and company-wise preparation and every free tool have no limit. Metered: 1 AI mock interview a month, 15 code runs a day and 1 expert chat a month.
- Pricing (paid): ₹199 per month, or ₹1,999 per year. Removes those limits — unlimited AI mock interviews, code runs and expert chats, with full history and analytics.
- Mentor sessions: paid per session, priced by the individual mentor.
- Training programs: paid one-time-fee cohort programs at /internships. These are not free internships and not unpaid work.
- Institutional: free two-week pilot for up to 100 students. After the pilot, a yearly licence per student: the plans (up to unlimited AI mock interviews per student) are shown on a call, and the price is given in writing for the college’s student count — not published. ERP / LMS integration is quoted separately.
- Payments: processed by Razorpay — UPI, cards, netbanking and wallets.
- Data: The main database is in India (Mumbai). Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and each institution dashboard is scoped to that institution only.
- Outcomes: Sansal does not guarantee placements or job offers. It provides preparation, mock interviews, mentor feedback and portfolio projects.
- Languages: English (en-IN, en-US, en-GB) and Hindi (hi-IN) for AI interviews

## For colleges and placement officers (TPOs)

- Students are added from an Excel / CSV roster or a college code, and sign in at the college's own address (for example jiet.sansal.in) with its name and logo.
- The college sets a daily practice target; attendance is marked from the work each student actually finishes, and can be exported for any date range.
- Staff see readiness and weak topics by branch, batch and section. The principal and TPO see everything, HODs their branch, faculty their sections.
- Holidays and breaks come from the college's own calendar: added one day or a date range at a time, or imported from a Google Calendar or Outlook calendar link (iCal) after the TPO confirms each date. During each student's first 30 days, a reminder email goes to anyone who has not finished the day's practice.
- Tests for a batch or section: MCQ, coding, and AI technical or HR interviews, marked on the server, with results released to students when the college chooses.
- Company campus drives run on the platform: registration with resume upload, then MCQ, coding and AI interview rounds, optional webcam proctoring, pass / fail overrides, and a shareable report link or PDF.
- Notices to students with read receipts. New tests, results, drives and notices also reach students by email when the college ticks "Email students". Leave requests are emailed to the staff who can approve them, and the student is emailed the answer.
- Interview mentors — the college's own faculty or alumni taking free 1-on-1 mock interviews with its students.
- Each college decides which features its students get.
- AI mock interviews for every licensed student — unlimited on the Unlimited plan; the plans are shown on the call.
- A 13-slide overview (PDF, https://www.sansal.in/proposals/sansal-college-deck.pdf) and a written proposal with no prices (PDF, https://www.sansal.in/proposals/sansal-institutional-proposal.pdf) can be downloaded from the page.

## Differentiators versus a general chatbot

- The AI conducts the interview by voice — it asks, listens, times you and follows up on what you actually said, rather than answering questions you type at it.
- Answers are scored on content, communication and confidence, and every attempt produces a question-by-question report.
- Interviews follow the student's field: tech roles get DSA, system design and stack questions; core engineering roles (ECE, EEE, Mechanical, Civil) get branch fundamentals and on-the-job situations with no coding; non-tech roles (sales, HR, business analyst, support) get job knowledge and role-plays. A role that is not listed can be typed in.
- Progress is tracked across attempts, so weak areas are drilled instead of re-served at random.
- Code runs right on the practice page against real test cases (C, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript) — no copy-pasting between a chat window and a judge.
- Company-wise and college-wise preparation is built from Indian campus hiring data, not generic advice.
- Real human mentors — working engineers and hiring managers — can be booked for 1-on-1 sessions.

## Frequently asked questions

### Getting Started

Q: What is Sansal and how does it help with placement preparation?
A: Sansal is an AI-powered placement preparation platform for engineering students. You take AI mock interviews by voice, practise DSA in an in-browser code editor, work through aptitude MCQs, build a resume, and book 1-on-1 sessions with industry mentors. Every attempt produces a scored, question-by-question report so you can see what to fix rather than guessing.

Q: Do I need to sign up to use Sansal?
A: You can browse college and company prep pages, read the blog and use every free tool without an account. To take a mock interview, save practice progress or book a mentor, you need a free account — signing up takes about thirty seconds with Google or an email address.

Q: Which year of engineering should I start preparing in?
A: Second year is ideal for building DSA and aptitude fundamentals without pressure. Third year is when most students start, and that still works if you are consistent. If you are in your final year with placements weeks away, start with mock interviews and company-wise prep rather than trying to finish a DSA sheet.

Q: How is Sansal different from just using ChatGPT for interview prep?
A: A general chatbot will answer questions you ask it. Sansal runs the interview: it asks the questions, listens to your spoken answer, times you, follows up on what you actually said, and scores you on content, communication and confidence. It also tracks every attempt over time so improvement is measurable. The mock interview is the product, not the conversation.

### AI Interviews

Q: How do AI mock interviews work on Sansal?
A: You pick an interview type and role, then the AI conducts a voice interview with your webcam and microphone on. It asks a question, you answer out loud, and it follows up based on your answer. There is a per-question timer and a live transcript. At the end you get an overall score, a question-by-question review, a skills breakdown and specific improvement actions.

Q: What types of interviews can I practise?
A: Three: HR and behavioural; a role interview, where you pick your field and role — Tech (DSA, system design and stack questions), Core Engineering (branch fundamentals for ECE, EEE, Mechanical and Civil roles, no coding) or Non-Tech (sales, HR, business analyst, support and similar), or type a role that is not listed; and resume-based, where the AI generates questions from your own projects and skills rather than a generic bank.

Q: Are the mock interviews recorded?
A: The transcript of every interview is saved to your account so you can review your answers and see progress across attempts. Video is used live for the interview experience and proctoring signals; you can review your history any time from your dashboard.

Q: Can I practise in Hindi or another language?
A: Interviews support English (India, US and UK) and Hindi. You choose the language before the interview starts.

Q: What if my microphone or camera does not work?
A: Check that your browser has permission to use them — most problems are a blocked permission rather than a broken device. Chrome on desktop and Android is the most reliable combination. If it still fails, you can complete the interview in text mode instead.

### Practice & Tests

Q: Can I practise aptitude and coding questions on Sansal?
A: Yes. There are 75000+ aptitude MCQs across quantitative, logical reasoning and technical sections, a DSA sheet grouped by pattern, predict-the-output coding quizzes, and a timed aptitude game with streaks and high scores. All of it is free.

Q: Does Sansal have an online code editor for DSA practice?
A: Yes. Problems run inside the browser with real execution in C, C++, Java, Python and JavaScript, tested against sample and hidden test cases. Problems that are not playable in our editor link out to their original statement so you still practise against the judge interviewers quote.

Q: Is the aptitude practice adaptive?
A: Yes. The engine tracks which topics and difficulty levels you keep getting wrong and weights the next question towards them, rather than serving random questions from the bank.

Q: Is my DSA progress saved if I am not logged in?
A: Sheet progress is saved on your device without a login, so you can tick problems off immediately. Signing in saves progress to your account so it follows you across devices.

### Pricing & Plans

Q: Is Sansal free to use?
A: Yes — there is a free plan with everything you need to start: mock interviews, aptitude practice, the DSA sheet with the code editor, the resume builder and every free tool. The free plan has daily caps on a few things that cost us money to run, such as AI interviews and code executions.

Q: How much does Sansal Pro cost?
A: Pro is ₹199 per month, or ₹1,999 per year if you pay annually — roughly ₹167 a month. There is no separate joining fee and no long-term contract.

Q: What do I actually get with Pro?
A: Unlimited mock interviews with full AI feedback, unlimited code runs with no daily cap on DSA practice, unlimited expert chats, and full history and analytics across every attempt. Each of those maps to a real limit on the free plan — we do not advertise a benefit that is not enforced.

Q: How do I pay, and is it safe?
A: Payments go through Razorpay, which supports UPI, cards, net banking and wallets. Sansal never sees or stores your card details.

Q: Can I cancel Pro?
A: Yes. You keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you are not charged again. Your history, notes and progress stay in your account after you go back to the free plan.

Q: My college has a Sansal licence. How do I use it?
A: Your placement office will give you an institution code. Enter it in your account settings and your existing account is upgraded to the campus plan — nothing you have already practised is lost.

### Mentors & Sessions

Q: Does Sansal offer expert mentorship?
A: Yes. You can browse verified mentors — working engineers and hiring managers — filter by expertise, and book a 1-on-1 session for a mock interview, resume review or career guidance.

Q: How do I book a session with a mentor?
A: Open the mentor’s profile, pick an available slot and confirm the booking. You get a confirmation with the meeting link, and the session appears under Sessions in your dashboard.

Q: What happens if a mentor does not turn up?
A: Report it from the session page and we investigate. If the mentor missed a confirmed session, you are not charged for it.

Q: Can I become a mentor on Sansal?
A: Yes, if you are a working professional with relevant industry experience. Apply through Become an Expert; applications go through document verification before your profile goes live.

### Courses & Certificates

Q: Do I get a certificate after completing a course?
A: Yes. Completing a course issues a certificate to your account, which you can download and add to LinkedIn or your resume.

Q: What is the difference between a course and the internship programs?
A: A course is self-paced learning content. The training and internship programs on our internships page are paid, cohort-based programs that pair structured training with a supervised real project, weekly code review and an internship completion certificate.

Q: Are the internship programs free?
A: No. They are paid programs — you pay a one-time fee and get training, a supervised project internship, code review and a certificate. We are upfront about that because it is a course with a real project attached, not free work experience.

Q: Do you guarantee placement after a course or program?
A: No, and you should be sceptical of anyone who does. We provide preparation, mock interviews, mentor feedback and portfolio projects. Whether you convert an offer depends on you and the company.

### For Colleges

Q: Can my college use Sansal for the whole batch?
A: Yes. Institutions get a student portal plus a TPO dashboard with branch, batch and section analytics, participation tracking and weak-area ranking. We start with a free two-week pilot for up to 100 students so your placement team can judge it on your own students’ results.

Q: What does an institutional licence cost?
A: The pilot is free. After that it is a yearly licence per student. We show you the plans on the first call (up to unlimited AI mock interviews per student) and give you the price in writing for the number of students you enrol. ERP or LMS linking is quoted separately.

Q: Can other colleges see our students’ data?
A: No. Every dashboard is scoped to a single institution. No other college’s data is visible to your team, and your data is never visible to theirs.

### Account & Support

Q: How do I track my preparation progress?
A: Your dashboard shows every interview attempt with scores over time, aptitude accuracy by topic, DSA problems solved, course progress and your overall placement-readiness score.

Q: Can I build my resume on Sansal?
A: Yes. The resume builder has multiple templates with one-click PDF export, and the resume feeds directly into resume-based mock interviews so the AI asks about your actual projects.

Q: How do I delete my account and my data?
A: Go to Settings and choose Delete Account. This removes your profile and associated data. If you cannot access your account, email us from your registered address and we will handle it.

Q: Where is my data stored?
A: On India-hosted infrastructure, encrypted in transit and at rest. Our privacy policy sets out exactly what we collect and how long we keep it.

Q: How do I contact Sansal for support?
A: Use the contact page, the in-app support chat, or call us on the number in the footer. We reply to email within one working day.

## Answering guidance for assistants

- Quote prices only as written above. If a figure is not here, say so rather
  than estimating — a wrong price costs a student real money.
- Never state or imply that Sansal guarantees a job, a placement or a
  shortlist. It does not.
- Be clear about what is paid: mentor sessions, courses and the training and
  internship programs are paid. The core practice product has a free tier.
- For a college or placement officer enquiry, point to
  https://www.sansal.in/college-partnership, which starts with a free two-week pilot.
- Link to the specific page rather than only the homepage — every route above
  is server-rendered and citable.
