Three steps

From zero to mentorship, in an afternoon.

You don't need a tech team. You don't need DNS changes. You don't need to train anyone.

Day 1
01

Start your institute

Sign up in three minutes on mentora.upclass.ai and claim a subdomain — vajiram.mentora.upclass.ai, drishti.mentora.upclass.ai, yours. Upload your logo and pick your colours; the aspirant and mentor apps inherit your branding instantly.

Day 1
02

Invite your mentors

Add faculty mentor numbers in bulk — General Studies, Optional subjects (PSIR, Sociology, Public Ad, etc.), Essay, Interview. Each mentor gets an invite link, sets their availability and chooses subjects. Online-only or specific centres for in-person.

Day 2
03

Share your aspirant link

A single tokenised link for your whole batch — drop it into your WhatsApp broadcast, your LMS, or your test-series email. Aspirants self-register with phone OTP, land on a branded home, book a Prelims/Mains/Optional session in two taps.

Designed for mentorship-led institutes

Built around the work — not the toolchain you've outgrown.

Built for UPSC CSE coaching: Prelims, Mains and Interview prep at scale. Aspirants, faculty mentors and ops in one platform — replacing the Zoom + WhatsApp + Calendly + spreadsheet stack.

Built-in video

No Zoom account for each mentor.

Every booking opens a video room inside Mentora — direct peer-to-peer WebRTC, your branding, your domain. No logins to manage, no Pro licences to count, no upgrade prompts mid-session.

  • Mentor and student join with one click from their dashboard
  • Chat with file sharing, screen sharing, host controls
  • TURN-relayed so it works behind corporate firewalls
● REC

AI session analyticsRolling out

Session-level AI analytics.

Every recording is transcribed and run through four passes of analysis: auto-notes, session gist, mentor teaching-style aggregation, and sentiment / engagement signals. Mentors get their notes for free; directors see how every mentor actually teaches.

  • Auto-extracted topics + action items per session
  • Confidence + engagement signals across the student's journey
  • Searchable across an entire cohort — find every student who hit a particular doubt

International Relations · Chapter 4 — Neorealism

  • Topics: neorealism vs. constructivism, balance of power
  • Struggled with: Mearsheimer's offensive realism
  • Action items: 1 essay this week, re-read pp. 84–112
  • Sentiment: engaged, slightly anxious about Mains
Confidence: medium
Engagement: high
Mentor ↔ student chat

Inbuilt chat between mentors and students.

Persistent chat threads per mentor-student pair. Always available — not just in scheduled hours. Attachments, link previews, search. Senior mentors stop running side conversations on WhatsApp; the institute keeps the relationship.

  • Threaded conversations with attachments, read receipts, full search
  • Image, PDF, YouTube and link-preview support out of the box
  • Per-mentor engagement scorecard (volume, p50 reply, after-hours %)
Sir, the Mearsheimer essay is too dense — can you point me at a simpler intro?
Try Walt's 1998 piece first. I'll share a 2-pager I wrote — gives you the vocabulary you need.
Got it 🙏

Tasks + habits

Mentors assign tasks. We track them.

Mentors set weekly targets on Monday. Students see them on their dashboard. A Forest-style focus tracker keeps every subject as a different plant — when a study session ends without abandoning, a leaf grows. Students open the tracker without being asked.

  • Weekly targets + recurring tasks (e.g. "30-min revision · 5×/week")
  • Subject-by-subject focus timer with abandoned-session detection
  • Garden view across the cohort — mentor + admin can see at a glance

Feedback + operations

Inbuilt post-session feedback — both ways.

After every session both sides leave a quick review — rating, freeform note, optional flags. The admin sees the whole picture: per-mentor DIR with cadence-breach alerts, scorecards labelled on-track / drifting / at-risk. The dashboard your ops lead opens before standup.

  • Mentor → student note + rating (private, optional share)
  • Student → mentor rating shapes the mentor health label
  • Daily, weekly, monthly DIR per mentor + per cohort, CSV export

Meeting Intelligence

Every session, read end-to-end — automatically.

We pull the audio off every recording, transcribe it with speaker tags, then run four passes of analysis. Mentors get their notes for free. Directors see how each mentor actually teaches — without listening to a single hour.

Output 2 · Session gist

One paragraph the student reads in 30 seconds.

A plain-English summary written in the mentor's voice, attached to the booking. No more "what did we cover last time" texts.

Walked through neorealism vs. constructivism using the post-1991 order as the worked example. You were comfortable with the Waltzian 3rd image; we slowed down on Mearsheimer's offensive realism because the assumption of state-as-rational-actor confused you. Try the Walt 1998 essay first, then re-attempt the Mearsheimer chapter — should click second time.

Which mentor is teaching well this week — and which isn't?

Until now, the honest answer was “ask students, hope they tell you the truth.” Now you can see it in the data: who slows down for hard concepts, who drops examples, who runs over jargon. Coach the ones who need it.

  • Pace, example density, engagement — trended week over week per mentor
  • Auto-flagged sessions where a student went silent for > 6 minutes
  • Cross-mentor benchmarks scoped to your own institute — not a generic baseline
