Finding offline exams expensive, chaotic and time-consuming, especially post-pandemic, a student from Borivli’s Orchid-The International School has established his own AI-based startup offering online exam support. Shivam Pai, 13, is the CEO and founder of HectTrak, an AI-based startup.

The Malad resident is a student of Class VIII, and his parents and teachers describe him as curious, innovative and creative. After conceiving the idea to start his own company and software to offer support to other companies and educational institutions in conducting online exams, Pai got five of his friends and classmates on board.
