🗺 Company Overview 🗺

No one should make life’s big decisions alone.

At Unibuddy, we connect prospective students to university ambassadors and faculty to empower them with the information they need to make one of life’s first big decisions: where to go to university!

Our SaaS platform provides Higher Education institutions with easy-to-deploy technology for their digital properties (web, mobile) so prospective students can chat with student ambassadors and faculty via one-to-one conversations and live events. We provide analytics and insights to help universities understand their prospective students and provide them with better information, increasing enrollment.

Since launching in 2017, we’ve grown rapidly and now work with over 250 institutions in 20+ countries across 4 continents. We’ve raised over $7M from top-tier investors that will fuel our expansion and help us achieve our ambitious goal of empowering 10 million students to make the right choice about their Higher Education journey.

Our recent success means that we’re currently scaling rapidly and hiring people that can help us supercharge our growth, while still embodying the values that have gotten us so far already
