Voice everywhere, plus a real home for college lists

Product updates

This update focuses on two things schools kept asking for: a faster way for students to talk to Addie, and a real place to build and track a college list.

New for counselors

  • Assigning a journey now shows a clear confirmation that notification reminders are enabled — assigned students automatically receive reminders via SMS, email, or WhatsApp until they engage, with no manual follow-up needed.
  • Creating a conversation is more structured: choose a format (Open Ended, Structured, or Questionnaire) and a school up front, so it's set up correctly from the start.
  • Creating a journey now auto-generates an internal identifier from the title, which you can still edit yourself.

New for students

  • Voice input is now available anywhere you can message Addie — General Chat and any assigned conversation — using the same microphone icon next to the message box.
  • Colleges has a new Explore tab with a starter college list based on your program interests, academic profile, and preferences, with likelihood labels, location filtering, and search.
  • The My Shortlist tab keeps the colleges you're actually considering in one place, whether you added them from Explore or entered a school yourself.
  • A new Experiences page lets you log a campus visit, college fair, recruiter visit, or info session by voice or by text, right after it happens.
