Solution

We have a bot called Emma, a digital mentor that advises students to choose a career path, based on their talents, passions, hobbies, likes & dislikes, we will record the assets in Cardano wallets.

Problem:

Think of you, or your children; and the way you store all your school-related achievements & skills.

Its everywhere, from papers to emails, to diplomas and pictures, and some are already lost forever

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

In the complex and fast-paced world we live in , it's easy to forget or misplace important information that we will need in the future, we want to record them in your Cardano wallet using Self-sovereign identity (SSI) provided by IAMX. Examples of data are:

Student records. <span>all academic transcripts</span>

Diplomas and certificates. j<span>ust like grades, a student’s diplomas and credentials could be issued and stored</span>

Badges. <span>foreign language skills, camps, technical knowledge, or specific abilities not necessarily related to a person’s profession</span>

Experience<span>. internships, jobs, or skills that may be interesting to future employers</span>

Lessons and courses. <span>lessons and courses can be programmed into the blockchain and executed automatically when certain conditions are met</span>

Publishing. <span>Undergrad and grad students, teachers, professors and researchers constantly generate quality material. But the road to publication is a hard one</span>

Students with self-sovereign identities can store their data on their devices (Cardano wallet) and provide it for verification and transactions without the need to rely upon a central repository of data.

The technology partnership will allow us to:

  • Verify your Pre-authenticated Data

  • Store and manage your Identity in your Cardano wallet

  • IAMX will store your wallet address on the blockchain

  • Register or authenticate with a 1-click process

We have the ambition to use conversational artificial intelligence algorithms in our bot called Emma, to pair with the recording assets proposal. Our dataset is based on data drawn from curated sources including the US Department of Labor with +1.5 thousand potential career paths, heavily customized so it helps students identify their purpose as a guide of what to record in their Cardano wallets

Please see how Emma will work in the youtube video here

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

We are 100% sure that this solution can scale at a global level, potentially helping millions of students to select the right career path and own their data, we have the network to get into the schools and universities, but we need the right system in place to create millions of Cardano wallets and deliver generations of Cardano native graduates.

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

The main risk we see is that our AI mentor won't provide valuable information to the students, (that as a consequence will be recorded into the blockchain). If the risk comes to reality, then the engagement and user experience will collapse.

We are continually developing our bot Emma with closed groups of students, Emma is eager to learn from humans and does learn from every interaction to best advise them in the near future, currently, we have tested 5 groups of 150 students, and each time is getting more accurate based on feedback icons 👍🏼 or 👎🏼

The goal is that our Emma constantly learns and evolves with the learning journey of the student and adapts to their changing interests to keep it relevant.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.

Success in 3 months

Connect our AI mentor Emma with IAMX SSI

Success in 12 months. (not included in fund9)

The full promise of guiding a student through an AI mentoring service on-demand in their career selection and recording & validating all the assets in their Cardano Wallets.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed budget breakdown.

#1 AI algorithm last-mile development and integration (Emma MVP)- $ 2,000

#2 Controlled tests and focus groups sessions to validate MVP user experience- $ 1,500

#3 Design of flexible career path framework, including data sets - $ 3,500

#4 Connect verified credentials into our AI algorithm and the Cardano wallets using IAMX- $18,000

Total $25,000

The initial batch of 10,000 users, with light verification SSO, and re-verifiable every two years.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide details of the people who will work on the project.

Experience relevant to Cardano

Stakepool: AZUL (stakeforfuture.com)

NFT fun project with another team TeddyTroops.io (sold out on Cardano)

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.

Yes, we will!

We would like to integrate more capabilities not considered in this round and expand to more users not included in fund9.

[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?

Scheduled weekly calls with students testing the ai and gathering feedback to incorporate into the bot, so we are more accurate on what the students are recording in their Cardano wallets.

To be scheduled: our 4th group of the live demo with Highschool Students in partnership with Junior Achievement Miami, where Jose Caceres seats on the board.

As we have done in the past with the other 3 live demos, we will validate changes in the development and incorporate new features based on UX.

After three months: we should have 500 students recording data into their Cardano wallets.

Once the process is bulletproof, we will pilot with SAP University Alliances where Jose Caceres and Lourdes Rosales work for adoption as part of the Corporate Social Responsibility program, the network has thousands of academic institutions across the globe.

[AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?

More to come

[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.
