Re-engage students 
who withdraw

Many students face challenges that interrupt their studies. Help them get their education back on track by providing the support they need, when they need it most. 

Mainstay’s behaviorally intelligent chatbots use judgment-free text messages to re-engage students who have left school with timely, personalized text conversations. You’ll gain immediate insights into your students’ circumstances, so you can support them in real-time — and help put them back on a path to success.

Students will tell you what they need and what their challenges are — if you’re able to listen. That’s why Mainstay empowers you to listen to them at scale. Use the aggregate data students provide in their conversations with your chatbot to anticipate their future needs, improve the student experience, and drive positive outcomes. 

You’ll be able to respond to students automatically with personalized, helpful, and empathetic conversations — and turn your insights into action that sparks student success.
