For education

Answer applicants, Capture interest, Support students and parents

Sawabot helps schools and universities handle WhatsApp conversations before they become missed applicants, repeated admissions questions, or admin calls your team answers all day.

The problem

Admissions and admin teams answer the same questions all day

Applicants wait for answers

Fees, deadlines, eligibility, documents, and programme details are urgent when a student is choosing where to apply.

Staff repeat the same replies

Counselors spend time copy-pasting information instead of guiding serious applicants.

Students and parents get lost

Calendars, fee policies, timetables, and notices are often hidden in PDFs, emails, and group chats.

Start simple, grow deeper

Start with the prospectus. Add admissions intake. Then support students and parents from approved documents.

The agent collects programme interest, education level, contact details, and basic eligibility context so counselors can follow up with a cleaner pipeline.

  • Programme, level, timeline, contact details, document needs
  • Lead drop into HubSpot, Zoho, Google Sheets, or inbox
  • Counselor still reviews, advises, and decides next steps

Why WhatsApp

An admissions question happens before the family visits the campus

Students and parents already ask important questions in chat. If the answer is slow, unclear, or buried in a portal, they keep searching elsewhere.
