1:1 Deeptech Mentorship
One mentor. One student. A real plan.
Direction, not content. A mentor who has done the thing you are trying to do, meeting you every week until you no longer need them.

- Shipped projects, minimum
- 100%
- Of sessions end with a next step
The students who move fastest are rarely the ones with the most resources. They are the ones with someone to ask.
Content has been free for a decade. What is still scarce is a person who will look at your half-finished project and tell you, specifically, what is wrong with it — and then still be there next week.
This is for you if
- Students who can follow a tutorial but freeze on an open-ended problem
- Anyone choosing between AI, robotics, higher studies and a job
- Self-taught engineers who want to know what they are missing
- Students with a project idea and no one to sanity-check it
This is not for you if
- Anyone looking for someone to do their assignments
- Students who want a curriculum to complete rather than a problem to solve
- Anyone unwilling to show work-in-progress they are not proud of yet
We publish this list because turning away the wrong fit is cheaper for both of us than four months of mismatch.
What we actually cover.
The plan is rebuilt around the time you genuinely have. This is the full map, not a fixed schedule.
Where you actually are
- Honest skills audit against your stated goal
- Identifying the one thing blocking the next three
- A plan scoped to the hours you really have
Building something real
- Choosing a project that proves something
- Weekly shipping cadence with code review
- Debugging as a taught skill, not a panic
- Writing up what you built so it counts
Depth in your direction
- AI / ML — from implementation to intuition
- Robotics and physical AI — simulation to hardware
- Systems and infrastructure fundamentals
The next step
- Higher studies, job or research — decided on evidence
- Portfolio, CV and interview preparation
- Introductions where we can genuinely make them

Questions people actually ask
Still unsure? Ask us directly — a person answers.
How is this different from an online course?
A course gives you content. This gives you someone who looks at your specific work and tells you what is actually wrong with it. Content has been free for a decade; attention has not.
Can I change mentors?
Yes, no explanation required. The relationship either works or it does not, and pretending otherwise wastes your time.
Is there a minimum commitment?
One month. We do not believe in locking students into a mentorship they have outgrown or never clicked with.
What if I do not know what I want to do yet?
That is a legitimate starting point, and often the most useful one. The first few sessions are for narrowing it down with evidence rather than vibes.
Tell us where you're
trying to get to.
Every application gets a real reply from a person, usually within 48 hours. If we think a different programme fits you better — or none of them do — we will say that instead of selling you this one.
A conversation first
You talk to the person who would mentor you before any money moves.
An honest assessment
We tell you what we think is realistic from where you are starting.
No lock-in
Full refund within the first two weeks if it is not what you expected.
