- The Delhi-NCR based startup founded by NIT Kurukshetra students Lucky Rohilla (started Quantel in 2019 with friend and batchmate) and Rishabh Garg offers 1:1 mentorship and career insights from industry experts in various domains.

The experts agreed to mentor students as they believed such one-to-one advice could speed up the learning curve and lead to professional success.
- On the platform, a user picks an expert from the curated pool of mentors in a variety of domains; the mentor will adhere to the needs and ambitions of the user. The user checks the slots available for that expert and chooses one that fits him or her (the user). The user then makes the full payment in advance for the 1:1 session.
