With rising college tuition costs, limited university staffing, and an increasingly competitive landscape, universities need to work more efficiently while improving engagement with all students, faculty, and alumni.

"We're making it easier for institutions to not just adopt generative AI, but to quickly make it part of their strategy, assist their staff, and improve engagement across every individual student journey."
