Smart India Hackathon 2026 · SIH26044

One portal where academia and industry finally speak the same skill language.

SkillBridge maps every student's real skills, measures them against live industry demand, turns the gap into a learning path, and matches them to internships and placements with fully explainable scores.

What the portal actually does

Four capabilities, built end to end — not a mock-up. Every number in the app comes from the platform database.

AI skill mapping

Upload or paste a resume and skills are extracted, categorised and levelled automatically — with a deterministic fallback when AI is unavailable.

Gap identification

Compare a student's verified skills against live industry demand to see exactly what is missing and how critical it is.

Explainable matching

Every match score shows its breakdown: skill coverage, domain, role, location and experience — plus how to improve it.

Real collaboration

Industry posts requirements, colleges convert them into training programs, students upskill, companies hire. One closed loop.

How the loop closes

01

Map

Student profile and resume are converted into a structured, levelled skill graph.

02

Compare

Skills are benchmarked against live industry requirements and demand data.

03

Close the gap

Colleges launch training aligned to the gaps; students follow a learning path.

04

Place

Explainable match scores drive applications, interviews and placement outcomes.
