Debargha Roy Nobody sat beside me when I applied to Cambridge. I come from the Northeast of India. At GNLU, and again at Cambridge, I was often the only person from my region in the room. I got through, but not because anyone handed me a map. I guessed which questions to ask and hoped a senior would answer. Most students I have spoken to since are in the same spot. They can find information. What they cannot find is someone who has done it, who will tell them honestly where they stand and what to do next. That is why I started Tura. Tura is a personal AI mentor for international students that lives on WhatsApp, like texting a senior who has been through the journey. We are starting with Indian law students applying to UK master's programmes. Debbie, our AI mentor, remembers your background and goals, and when a decision needs lived judgement she brings in one of our verified graduate mentors. Debbie is in closed beta with 10 students. In our first month, 310 people joined the waitlist, 20 graduate mentors signed up and 48 students joined the platform. Anyone can put a chatbot on WhatsApp. What we are
