Mentor Connect: An AI-Driven Real-Time Mentorship Platform

Mentor Connect is an artificial intelligence-powered mentorship platform that aims to close the accessibility gap between mentors and mentees via a real-time, role-based communication platform. The platform includes a Graph Neural Network-based recommendation engine for personalized mentor recommendations and live video mentoring via integration with seamless Jitsi Meet. Experimental tests showed that the system makes accurate and relevant mentor allocations, keeps low-latency video interactions, and manages simultaneous user activity effectively. These findings establish the platform's ability to enable scalable, personalized, and accessible mentorship experiences, especially in digitally disadvantaged settings.
