MentorAI

AI assistant that guides mentors and supports program staff behind the scenes with evidence-based suggestions, without replacing the human judgment that makes mentoring work.

MatchPRO

An evidence-based matching algorithm grounded in decades of research, customized to align mentors and mentees on the dimensions most predictive of relationship quality.

Goal-focused app

Mentoring with purpose, every session, every goal tracked

with purpose

MentorPRO gives mentors and mentees a dedicated, secure space to connect, communicate, and grow together, without the friction of stitching together separate tools.

Mentees set personalized goals with structured milestone tracking, so progress is visible, celebrated, and tied to something that matters to them.

MentorAI synthesizes activity across the platform into rich, data-driven summaries that help program coordinators spot momentum, identify struggling pairs, and intervene before a match is at risk.

1:1 and group messaging, video, scheduling, and push notifications, all built in. Mentors and mentees stay connected on their terms, and coordinators always have a clear picture of relationship activity.

Curated, research-validated surveys and self-monitoring tools give programs the data they need to track relationship quality over time, without burdening participants with lengthy assessments.

Staff, Mentor, and Mentee Training

Research-backed training that builds strong matches

MentorPRO Academy brings evidence-based training on communication, ethics, and relationship-building directly into the platform, so mentors, mentees, and program staff are equipped with the skills they need and supported at every stage.

Separate tracks for mentors, mentees, and program staff, spanning workforce development, personal development, building social capital, and mentorship training.

Courses ranging from foundational skills like goal-setting and resume-building to advanced topics like managing ethical challenges and supporting youth mental health.

Professional certification through the Center for Evidence-Based Mentoring, easily shareable on LinkedIn and other professional platforms.

Evidence-based single-session courses on social belonging, social capital, and mental health, delivered directly to mentees at the moments when brief, targeted support matters most.

Evidence-based Matching algorithm

Every Mentee Deserves a Great Match.
MatchPRO Makes That Possible.

MentorPRO was built by Jean Rhodes, whose 30-year research career and 200+ peer-reviewed studies have defined what we know about why some mentoring relationships thrive and others fall apart.

Programs using MentorPRO saw early match closure drop from 32% to 9%, more than tripling the staying power of every connection made.

Select and prioritize more than 15+ research-backed compatibility variables (e.g., interests, geography, backgrounds, personality, risk status), drawn directly from the mentoring literature.

No two programs are alike. MentorPRO’s algorithm is fully customizable so your matching logic reflects your model, your population, and your outcomes, not a generic template.

Match your entire roster at once for efficiency, or run a single mentee against the full pool of available mentors when you need a precision fit. MentorPRO works both ways.

Bring your existing data. MentorPRO accepts direct uploads of mentor and mentee information, so you can get matches without rebuilding your intake process from scratch.
