How is AI college counseling different from human counselors?
Our AI provides 24/7 accessible and affordable expert guidance, including instant answers, personalized scholarship matching, and financial analysis. Human counselors provide oversight for major decisions.
Can AI understand my family's unique situation?
Yes. Our system analyzes your specific financial profile, student strengths, location, and preferences to provide tailored recommendations, trained on hundreds of real family scenarios.
How much does the beta program cost?
The beta program is completely free through May 2026. After that, beta families receive 50% off the planned launch price, paying just $97/month.
What happens if we're not satisfied during the beta?
You can discontinue at any time with no obligation or financial risk. We encourage honest feedback to improve the platform.
How much time will this require?
Most families spend 10-15 minutes weekly during planning and about 30 minutes during application season. The system organizes everything to save you time.
What if the AI gives wrong advice?
All major recommendations are reviewed by human counselors before implementation. You can escalate any concern directly to our expert team, and the AI flags when human review is needed.
How does the AI learn about our family's situation?
Through a secure onboarding questionnaire covering finances, student profile, preferences, and goals. The AI continuously learns from your interactions while keeping all data private and secure.
Do you guarantee scholarship results?
While we can't guarantee specific amounts, our methodology has helped 300+ families identify substantial, otherwise-missed scholarship opportunities and hidden funding sources.
Can we cancel at any time?
Yes. Beta families have no commitment. After beta, monthly subscriptions can be canceled anytime with 30 days notice.
Don't Let This Opportunity Pass By
The families who plan ahead get the best results. The families who wait face limited options and higher stress.
45 beta spots remain. When they're gone, the next opportunity won't be until public launch at full price, with less attention.
From Classroom to Solution After 25 years in education, I watched too many students abandon college dreams due to complex financial aid forms, lack of school guidance, and confusing processes that derailed their post-secondary plans. So I built the solution I wished existed: expert guidance powered by AI, accessible to every family.
