How do I build a custom mentor in MentorAI?

Overview

You can build a custom "mentor" in MentorAI - for example to tutor students in a course or support a team workflow. ITS has how-to content in the AI Answers space and is happy to meet and walk you through it. As the mentor owner, you can view user prompts and responses under the mentor's History tab. To share a mentor with a specific set of people, ask ITS to set up a group you can add users to.

Steps

  1. Explore the MentorAI how-to content in the AI Answers space.

  2. Create a mentor and configure it for your use case (course tutor, team workflow, etc.).

  3. To share with a specific set of people, ask ITS to set up a group you can add users to (aihelp@syr.edu).

  4. As the owner, review user prompts and responses under the mentor's History tab.

  5. Want a walkthrough? ITS can meet and show examples others have built.

Building a mentor is one of the most powerful things you can do in MentorAI. The common questions are how to get started, how to share a mentor with the right people, and how to see how it is being used.
