Protopia

• Founded in: 2016
• Accelerated in: 2021

Protopia has designed an AI-based platform to help increase an institution’s engagement with its alumni by providing an easy way for them to mentor current students. Users fill out a short online form, then Protopia’s AI sends a private email to 10 to 15 of the most relevant alumni who can choose to help, but determine whether the request warrants quick advice, a call or a meeting. Institutions can use their administrator access to track student and alumni engagement.
