NORA

NORA is an end-to-end AI advising platform for international students and their advisors. It pairs a dual-mode multi-agent pipeline with a retrieval layer grounded in official university policy, so answers about CPT/OPT, course planning, and program requirements are accurate rather than hallucinated.

• Built a dual-mode LangChain multi-agent pipeline on Gemini 2.0 Flash, behind university login, that guides students through CPT/OPT, course planning, and program policy.
• Grounded every answer in official university policy through a ChromaDB RAG layer, reaching 92% accuracy on a 50-question evaluation set.
• Shipped a companion Chrome extension that surfaces inline guidance directly on university portals.
• Designed the agent routing so advisor-facing and student-facing modes share retrieval but diverge on tone, permissions, and available tools.
