Mentorship platform

Find your mentor

The mentee side of an Arabic mentorship platform: register and set your goals, search a directory of rated professional mentors, book a session at a rate you can see up front, meet in a dedicated room and follow a program through to a review.

The premise

What is Nasooh?

Nasooh connects a mentee with a professional mentor for structured, paid guidance. This is the mentee's side of it: registering, setting goals, finding the right mentor, booking sessions and following a program through to a review.

A directory, a program and a room

A directory, a program and a room

The mentee experience joins three things that generic 'find a coach' sites keep apart: a searchable directory of rated mentors, a structured program with goals and tasks, and a booked session room where the mentorship actually happens.

Mentors you can compareEvery mentor carries a professional title, the fields they cover, a rating from past mentees and a clear monthly rate, so a choice rests on evidence rather than a bio alone.
Goals that anchor the programA mentee sets goals up front, and the program's tasks and sessions ladder towards them rather than being a loose series of calls.
Built Arabic-firstThe whole platform is composed right-to-left for an Arabic-speaking audience, not translated after the fact.
The problem

Why is finding the right mentor so hard?

Informal mentorship breaks down on three fronts: you cannot compare mentors, there is no structure once you start, and nothing records whether it worked. Nasooh puts all three in one place.

The screens a mentee moves through, from finding a mentor to reviewing one.

How we approached it

How was the mentee experience designed?

The brief was to make informal mentorship feel like a program without making it feel like paperwork. The design was driven from the mentee's journey.

The mentee journey

How does a mentee go from signing up to a review?

The platform is one continuous journey. Each step sets up the next, which is what turns a one-off call into a mentorship with a shape.

    A new mentee creates an account and activates it, then lands in their own space.

One screen, the whole idea

How does a mentee choose a mentor?

The mentor directory is where the platform earns its trust. This is that screen as it renders — select a pin to see what each part does and why it is there.

1Search the whole directory

A mentee searches by skill, name or qualification and narrows the results by professional sector and field, so the directory works whether you know exactly who you want or only the area you need help in.

2A monthly rate, shown up front

Each mentor sets their own subscription rate, and it sits on the card before any conversation starts. Nobody has to negotiate a price awkwardly on a first call.

3Who the mentor is

A name, a professional title and a short summary describe the mentor's background, so a mentee can tell an engineer from an HR consultant at a glance.

4A rating from past mentees

A star rating and a count of reviews sit beside every mentor, turning other mentees' experience into something the next one can act on.

5The fields they mentor in

Each card lists the domains a mentor covers, so fit is judged on subject, not just seniority.

6Book an appointment

A single action starts a booking request the mentor confirms, moving the mentee straight from browsing to a scheduled session.

FAQ

Building a mentorship platform

The questions founders and product teams ask us first, answered plainly.

Ask us yours
How does an online mentorship platform work?

A mentee registers, sets their goals and joins a program, then searches a directory of professional mentors. They compare mentors on rating and monthly rate, book a session, and the mentor confirms it. The mentorship happens in a dedicated room, the mentee works through tasks between sessions, and afterwards leaves a review that feeds the mentor's rating. Every step holds the state the next one relies on.

How are mentors matched to mentees?

By search, not by an opaque algorithm. A mentee filters the directory by professional sector and field, or searches a skill or qualification directly, then compares the results on the mentor's rating, the fields they cover and their rate. The mentee chooses and books; the mentor confirms.

Is the platform available in Arabic?

Yes. Nasooh is Arabic-first and laid out right-to-left throughout, designed for a Saudi and wider Arabic-speaking audience rather than machine-translated from an English original.

Can mentees track progress between sessions?

Between booked sessions a mentee works through growing tasks laid out on a calendar, all tied back to the goals they set at the start. That structure is what keeps a mentorship from fading into a few disconnected calls.

How long does it take to build a platform like this?

It depends on scope, and nobody can quote it honestly from a feature list alone. The biggest drivers are the booking and payments model, whether live session rooms are in scope, and how much of the directory and rating system is bespoke. Shanti Infosoft scopes it on a short call and returns a fixed quote.
