• PrepInsta’s Optimus replaces the chaos of spreadsheets and WhatsApp by providing colleges with a seamless platform that automates assessments, tracks student progress in real time, offers detailed batch reports, and monitors placement offers with customizable filters

NEW DELHI: PrepInsta, India’s leading placement preparation and skilling platform, announced that over 100 colleges across India have adopted its Placement Automation Software, Optimus, to streamline campus hiring and student readiness. The solution has successfully facilitated more than 3.5 lakh assessments, marking a major leap in digitising placement workflows for academic institutions nationwide.

With the growing demand for job-ready graduates, Training and Placement Officers are under constant pressure to ensure a seamless and data-driven placement process. PrepInsta’s Optimus is designed to eliminate dependency on spreadsheets and WhatsApp communication by offering an integrated platform for conducting auto-proctored assessments, tracking student performance, generating batch-level reports, and monitoring offer statuses with filters for branch, year, or hiring company.

“Optimus is more than just software. It is a strategic shift that empowers placement cells with complete visibility, actionable insights, and intelligent automation, allowing them to focus on what truly matters—student outcomes and employer partnerships,” said Manish Agarwal, Senior Director at PrepInsta. “With features such as company-specific or topic-wise mock tests, real-time dashboards on coding, aptitude, and communication skills, and comprehensive offer tracking systems, we are reimagining the way colleges approach recruitment. It brings institutional clarity, reduces administrative burden, and elevates the professionalism of campus hiring.”

Optimus also integrates seamlessly with PrepInsta Prime, enabling colleges to offer advanced learning modules in aptitude, coding, and technical skills. Institutions gain access to skilling programs in data science, generative AI, and full stack development, as well as PrepInsta’s recruiter network for pilot placement drives. Notably, over 70 percent of trainers across partner institutions have recommended PrepInsta as the preferred platform for aptitude and coding preparation, further validating its impact and relevance.

Founded in 2017 by Atulya Kaushik, Aashay Mishra, and Manish Agarwal, PrepInsta is committed to bridging the gap between academic instruction and industry expectations. Following its acquisition by Adda247, a Google-backed edtech leader, PrepInsta is rapidly expanding its reach and impact in the placement readiness space. Headquartered in Noida and Bengaluru, the company continues to serve as a one-stop destination for students and colleges aiming to make campus recruitment smarter, faster, and more inclusive.
