AI chatbot for higher education: why now
Prospective students inform themselves mostly digitally and expect fast, reliable answers, ideally in their language and without waiting queues. At the same time, advisory teams are stretched thin, application phases produce demand spikes and enrolled students raise questions about modules, exams and course material around the clock.
LoyJoy supports learners along the entire student lifecycle, from the first question about the right programme to exam preparation. The chatbot takes over study advice, becomes a Study Buddy after enrolment and relieves faculties, instructors and support teams alike.
Use cases: chatbot and voicebot for universities and education providers
Nine use cases that universities and education providers automate with LoyJoy, from prospective student advice to the self-service portal.

No-code for your study advice and administration
Build it yourself, advise in dialogue, instead of FAQ and email form
Classic university solutions are static FAQ pages, lengthy email exchanges and contact forms. LoyJoy is a no-code platform: your study advice and administration build the chatbot themselves, adjust content each semester and extend it with over 100 process modules.
FAQ, email, contact form
Static, slow, anonymous
- FAQ pages answer standard questions but do not advise in dialogue
- Email replies take days, especially during application phases
- Content only changeable via IT or marketing release cycles
- No multilingual support for international students
