PocketMentor AI (Blockchain-Verified Career Coaching)

"AI-powered career mentor delivering personalized guidance with blockchain-verified credentials – because skills should be provable, not just claimable

Comment 2

Inspiration

After seeing friends struggle with $500/hr career coaches and unverified LinkedIn skills, we asked:
What if AI could deliver affordable mentorship with blockchain-proof results?

What We Learned

• AI Limitations: ElevenLabs' emotional range for career advice
• Blockchain UX: Algorand's low fees vs. user onboarding friction
• Monetization: RevenueCat's sandbox mode for testing paywalls

How We Built It

# Pseudocode - Core NFT Minting Flow
def complete_course(user)
  generate_voice_feedback(user) # ElevenLabs API
  mint_nft(user) # Algorand Testnet 
  unlock_content(user) if premium? # RevenueCat
end

Challenges Overcome
🛠️ Voice AI Timing: Synced TTS with UI animations using CapCut
🔗 Testnet Wallets: Simplified AlgoSigner integration for demo
🎥 Video Avatars: Mocked Tavus API responses with pre-recorded clips
