Mentora

Inspiration

"You can learn everything."

The direction of AI has been taken down a darker path for a tool originally intended to act as an intelligent computer that aids humans.

Tools such as interview cheating assistants or deepfake content generators used to slander others or spread misinformation have slowly started gaining traction and set a scary precedent for the future of AI.

Our team wanted to look at ways to give AI a more human-supportive viewpoint. We reflected on our own struggles, and felt that habits are difficult to form. This gave way to Mentora, our project built to help anyone build stronger habits.

AI can be a great assistant when prompted correctly. You can ask it for advice, have it generate schedules for you, and can even provide words of support. We utilize this quality of LLMs to create an application that gives users an easy way to interface with AI to build strong habits, tying together multiple strategies and tools.

What it does

Mentora comprises of a dashboard with a live assistant, skill trees and various skills a user can choose to develop or strengthen. Skill tree roadmaps are generated stemming from the goals or habits the user chooses. We make use of Letta to create a persistent memory for the AI assistant that collects data trends and uses them to craft responses or provide suggestions.

How we built it

Our project relies mainly on Letta as the backbone. We use TypeScript for the front end and various AI LLMs such as Claude for the brains behind the agent.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to learn the ins and outs of Letta within a very short time frame and fully implement it within our project, creating an end product very close to prod-level.

What's next for Mentora

We want to continue building Mentora to iron out the early-stage code bugs and to add on more features, along with developing it for more platforms such as a mobile web-app capable of sending notifications along with setting calendar reminders.
