Features
User Roles

The ArguMentor is built around a relationship-driven hierarchy that ensures the right people have the right level of visibility — no more, no less. Every connection is intentional, and access flows through relationships, not blanket permissions.
Participant
The people at the heart of the process. Participants work through The ArguMentor's 5-phase conflict resolution process together — restating the problem, communicating their needs, exploring solutions, evaluating options, and reaching agreement. They see only their own conflicts and control the pace of their journey.
Best for: Employees, students, family members, team members — anyone navigating a disagreement and ready to resolve it constructively.
Mentor
The steady hand behind the scenes. Mentors are connected to participants through the relationship system and can view their mentees' conflicts, leave guidance at key moments, and send private messages — all without taking sides. A mentor only sees conflicts belonging to participants they're connected to, ensuring trust and boundaries are maintained.
Best for: Managers, counselors, coaches, teachers, HR professionals — anyone responsible for supporting others through difficult conversations.
Observer
A window into the process without a seat at the table. Observers are connected to mentors and gain read-only visibility into the conflicts those mentors oversee. They can monitor progress and outcomes but cannot interact with the process directly — preserving the integrity of the resolution while keeping leadership informed.
Best for: Department heads, program directors, Judges/Magistrates, senior HR — anyone who needs awareness of conflict trends across their teams without direct involvement.
Global
The full picture, from the top. Global users are connected to observers and can see across the entire chain — from observer to mentor to participant. This role provides organizational-level visibility into conflict resolution activity, enabling pattern recognition, program evaluation, and strategic oversight.
Best for: Executives, organizational development leaders, board members — anyone accountable for the culture and health of an entire organization.
How It Works
Access in The ArguMentor flows through relationships, not titles. A mentor can only see a participant's conflicts if they're connected. An observer can only see what their assigned mentors oversee. A global user can only see what flows through their observers. No relationship, no access — privacy is the default.
Participant → Mentor → Observer → Global
Each level adds visibility. None removes privacy.
