For far too long, the focus of student retention has been on the institution. Finally, it's time for students. It's our philosophy that we learn best when we're connected with and motivated by the people around us. And that's why we're changing the way we seek academic support.

Our story

First-hand solutions for first-hand problems.

It was O-week in 2021. Our founder, Vish, was enrolling in courses and asking around to see what his mates were doing. He was overwhelmed with the repetitive nature of these questions each semester.

‍What courses do you have coming up? Who else is doing ECON next sem? Is there a group chat for PSYC? What is my GPA? My WAM? Which friend can I ask for course advice? What marks do I need to get an HD? Where can I easily find a tutor to help me with this assignment right now?

And so he took it upon himself to fix it.
