The Problem
Career services can't scale 1-on-1 advising to every student
The ratio is stacked against you — 1 advisor for every 500+ students. Office hours run 9 to 5, but students job search evenings and weekends. Generic career resources sit untouched.
Students who need help the most are the least likely to ask for it. By the time someone reaches out, weeks of momentum have been lost.
“We knew students were struggling. We just couldn't get to all of them before they gave up.”
How It Works
From reactive office hours to proactive AI guidance in three steps
Agent Connects to Your Systems
Syncs with your SIS, LMS, CRM, and the Prentus platform. Understands each student’s academics, job search history, and career goals.
Proactive Outreach, Not Waiting
The AI reaches out first with personalized plans, follow-up reminders, and application tips. Students get help before they think to ask.
Advisors Focus Where It Matters
At-risk alerts surface students who need human intervention. Your team spends time on high-impact conversations, not routine check-ins.
Personalized Guidance
Weekly career plans built for each student
Every student gets a personalized weekly plan based on their pipeline, goals, and upcoming deadlines. Tasks are prioritized, progress is tracked, and the plan adjusts as their job search evolves.
- Plans built from each student's actual job search data
- Career Points earned for completing weekly tasks
- AI adjusts priorities when new applications or interviews are added
Proactive Outreach
Follow-ups and nudges before students fall behind
The AI monitors student activity and sends timely nudges — follow-up reminders, application tips, and re-engagement messages. When a student goes quiet, the agent acts before an advisor needs to.
- Context-aware nudges based on application timelines
- Drafted follow-up emails students can edit and send
- Re-engages inactive students automatically before escalating to advisors
Advisor Intelligence
At-risk alerts so your team focuses where it matters
The AI monitors engagement signals across the platform. When students show signs of disengagement, advisors get prioritized alerts with suggested next steps.
- Risk levels based on login frequency, applications, and goal completion
- One-click actions: send nudge, schedule call, or adjust goals
- Caseload summaries show who needs attention right now
