# Mentorship Overview

> Share your trading data with a coach for feedback and guidance

The mentorship feature allows you to invite a trading coach or mentor to review your performance data. Your mentor gets read-only access to your trades, journal entries, and metrics — enabling them to provide personalized feedback on your trading.

<Info>
  Mentorship is available on the **Pro plan** and during the **14-day free trial**.

## How It Works

```mermaid theme={null}

    A[You] -->|Send Invite| B[Mentor Email]
    B -->|Accept| C[Mentor Account]
    C -->|Read-Only Access| D[Your Data]
    C -->|Comments| E[Your Journal]
```

1. **You invite** your mentor via email
2. **They accept** and create a mentor account (or sign in)
3. **They view** your trades, journals, and performance
4. **They comment** on your journal entries with feedback

## What Mentors Can See

| Visible to Mentor                    | Hidden from Mentor |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------ |
| Trade history and execution data     | Account balances   |
| Journal entries and notes            | Purchase amounts   |
| Performance metrics (win rate, P\&L) | Payout amounts     |
| Playbook setups                      | Financial data     |
| AI insights                          | Broker credentials |
| Session and instrument analysis      |                    |

<Note>
  Your mentor sees your trading performance but never your actual account balances or financial transactions. This protects your privacy while still enabling meaningful coaching.
</Note>
