A new way to create impact with your content. Instead of asking your buyers to consume your content before they get the value, give them a shortcut to the value you already provide.
A new relationship to information

Mentoring
Your method is the same for everyone. Your student’s situation isn’t.
People buy your course because you know the way through. Then they are alone with the whole map. Their situation is somewhere on it, and finding it, and walking it, is left to them.
Information became free. What people pay for now is your method, applied to their case.
Three eras of giving a course
First the landline, then the cell phone, then the smartphone. Each one kept the job and changed what was possible.
- First, by mail. Lessons came in an envelope. The student posted the exercise back and waited weeks for an answer. Slow, but someone read the work.
- Then, on a platform. Videos, modules, a progress bar. The course reached more people, and nobody read the work. Students buy, rarely finish, and seldom get the result the course promised. The same questions come back to your inbox, and every update means uploading again.
- Now, by your mentor. Your method, present when the student needs it, in their situation, in your words. It reads the work, remembers the student, and helps them act.
A new era of providing information.
| Aspect | By mail | On a platform | By your mentor (coming) |
|---|---|---|---|
| The teacher is there at the moment of need | no | no | your method answers when they ask |
| Adapts to the student | no | the same modules for everyone | a path built for each student |
| Exercises checked | by post, weeks later | rarely | each one, with feedback in your way |
| Remembers the student | rarely | where they stopped watching | who they are and the steps they took on |
| Your updates reach students | a new edition, sent again | you upload again, and hope they come back | update once, every student has it |
| Support load | letters to answer | the same questions, by email, again | your mentor answers, in your words |
The third column is a course given through your own mentor. It is coming, and described below. What already works is next.
What your material can do.
All of this comes with the next version of Mentor Factory, on the free plan too.
- Build a mentor from what you already made.
- Your course, your book, your talks, your newsletter archive. PDF, Word, plain text, audio and video, pictures, Excel workbooks, saved web pages. Drop in a whole folder. Recordings are transcribed first, and anything it can’t read is listed before anything is charged. You see one cost and one time before it starts. No prompts to engineer, no model to train, no code. Build as many mentors of your own as you like, on every plan.
- Write in your method.
- The next article, the email, the lesson, the sales page. Ask a mentor built from everything you already said, and it drafts in your method. Then you steer: shorter, warmer, “I’d never say that”, until it sounds like you. You keep the intent at the start and the decision at the end.
- Hear how your course answers.
- Ask it the hardest questions your students send you, and read the answer as they would. Every answer lists the sources it consulted, so you see which lesson it drew on: where your course is sharp, and where it is thin. When your material never covered a question, the mentor applies your principles to it.
- Keep your voice.
- Your frameworks, your vocabulary, your opinions. Every mentor runs under Framework Lock: before it answers, it asks itself whether a generic AI would give this same advice, and if so, it reframes the reply through your model. Push back, and it holds your method’s line and argues it.
- Your files stay on your computer.
- To write an answer, the mentor sends the passages it retrieved and the question to the model, with the moments that mentor remembers, and nothing else: never your library. We don’t log your messages or your material, and nothing you give it trains a model. Creating a mentor uses our server, because that is where the generation method lives. On Mentor Guides and Mentor Workforce, Enhanced privacy mode lets your own local model write the answers. Read the privacy policy
I’m Ben. I built Mentor Factory. I’d bought a communication course and never found the time for its videos, and my LinkedIn profile needed rewriting. So I built a mentor from the course, told it who I am and what I offer, and steered: this sounds like me, this doesn’t. The profile went live. The articles have been pouring out since.
Now do it with your own material. The next piece starts from everything you already taught.
Become a Mentor Coming soon
This is what we are building next. It is not in the app yet. Here is what it is designed to be.
What your student lives
- A path built for them, from where they stand to the result your course promises.
- One lesson and one exercise at a time.
- Feedback on each exercise, in your way, and the next lesson follows from it.
- A mentor that remembers them: who they are, what they tried, what happened.
- One follow-up on a step they said they would take. Once, not again and again.
- The downloads next to the lesson they belong to.
- Your updates, reaching them automatically.
What you live
- Drop your webinars, your material, even your unfinished books. They become your AI mentor, in your voice.
- Get your own page and your personal link.
- Earn on every conversation.
- You check how the mentor reads your method, and walk the path yourself first, as its first student.
- Your material stays protected.
- You update once, and every student has the new version.

Questions
When does it open?
Soon. We don’t have a public date yet. Ben contacts the people on the waitlist personally.
Do I need an audience?
No. “Just starting” is one of the answers on the form.
What does building a mentor cost?
A build uses credits, like any build in the app. You see an estimate first, then you’re charged exactly what it used.
How much will I earn?
You’ll earn on every conversation. You’ll see the terms before you publish anything.
Can I start now?
Yes, for yourself. Download the app and build a mentor from your own material to hear how it answers. Your own page, your personal link and earning come with Become a Mentor.
What do you do with my answers?
We use them only to contact you about becoming a mentor. To be removed, write to support@mentorfactory.ai.
