About TheBlueMustard

One platform for running online assessments, hiring on skill, selling subscriptions, and selling digital products.

What we build

Assessment software and digital commerce, on one account

Most people who run online tests also sell something - study material, a course, a membership. Most people selling digital work eventually want to assess someone. Those two jobs are usually served by two unrelated products with two bills, two logins, and no shared record of who bought what or who sat which paper.

TheBlueMustard puts both on one account. A coaching institute can run a mock test series and sell access to it. A hiring team can screen candidates on skill. A creator can sell files, or sell recurring access to them. The same identity, billing, invoicing and entitlement layer sits underneath all of it.

It is built for India first: pricing and settlement in Rupees through Razorpay, UPI and UPI Autopay as first-class payment methods, and GST invoicing that produces documents a buyer’s accountant can actually file.

Who it is for

What it does

Each feature page describes the mechanism, the workflow it belongs to, and an explicit list of what it does not do.

Background reading lives in the guides, and pricing covers what a plan includes.

How it is built

Security, payments and record-keeping

The parts that are load-bearing when money and exam results are involved.

Secure payments

Powered by Razorpay - credit cards, debit cards, UPI, net banking and popular wallets, in Indian Rupees. Card details never reach our servers.

GST-ready invoicing

Sequential invoice numbering, CGST / SGST / IGST tax lines, credit notes and refunds - ready for B2B customers to file.

Licences & entitlements

Every purchase mints a licence key; every subscription grants an entitlement that is checked on every download and test attempt.

Trustworthy by design

Immutable audit trails for sensitive actions, short-lived signed download URLs, per-IP rate limits, and platform-owner kill switches.

Authentication

Clerk handles sign-in, with optional two-factor authentication. All connections are encrypted in transit over HTTPS and WSS.

File storage

Product files are stored on AWS S3 with server-side encryption, checksummed on upload, and never served from a public URL.
