What is Insight Mentor?
Insight Mentor is an AI-powered assistant, designed for students, that automates the entire studying workflow. Instead of spending hours manually summarizing notes, extracting key concepts, or creating flashcards and quizzes, Insight Mentor handles all of it instantly.
📘 The Hidden Cost of Learning
Being a college student is no easy feat. On top of regularly attending lectures, students are expected to juggle exams, extracurriculars, and even provide for their families… But one time-sink consistently flies under the radar:
Note-taking and summarizing can swallow 2–3 hours for every hour spent in class.
This comes from the “Carnegie rule,” a long-standing academic benchmark suggesting that for each hour of instruction, students should expect two additional hours of preparation — usually made up of reading, summarizing, & creating study materials.
For a typical 3-credit class, that’s 6+ hours a week of outside work.
Large national time-use studies show that full-time U.S. college students spend an average of:
3.9 hours every single day
on academic activities — including studying, note-taking, reviewing, and preparing for quizzes.
And despite that effort, students often still feel overwhelmed, behind, and unsure what actually to prioritize.
🤔 What Exactly Does Insight Mentor Do?
Insight Mentor collapses hours of manual prep into seconds by:
generating clean, easy-to-understand summaries
highlighting key concepts
auto-creating flashcards
instantly building a personalized study plan
producing short quizzes to reinforce memory
track the student's mastery over time
Meaning that students gain a better understanding of the ever-changing school-life balance & get to spend more time doing what actually moves the needle: learning, practicing, and mastering concepts.
Here's the Problem
Most of the time that students spend studying is eaten up by:
rewriting previous lecture notes
extracting key points
building flashcards
organizing study plans
figuring out what's important
Time wasted on prep instead of actual learning.
What's the result?
Students spend more time preparing to study than actually studying.
Why Does This Matter?
By automating the tedious parts of studying, Insight Mentor helps learners reclaim:
Hours per week normally spent summarizing
Mental energy spent organizing the material
Focus that’s better used on understanding the content
It’s not just a convenience tool — it’s an accelerant for better learning.
