AI AGENT

Higher Ed’s Most Powerful Assistant

Higher ed’s most powerful assistant.

Pathify’s AI Agent acts as a critical component to the Campus Experience Platform (CXP), delivering lightning-fast, ultra-personalized resolutions around the clock. Extending the same integration foundation as the Campus Experience Hub, it reduces ticket volume, saves valuable staff time and replaces the need for single threaded chatbots — all while improving the user experience.

AI Agent Feature Snapshot

Integrations

Connect seamlessly with other systems — like the SIS and LMS — to surface student balances, GPA or grades, schedules and more.

Platform Parity

The AI Agent seamlessly matches platform functionality, ensuring a consistent user experience and eliminating the need for separate, siloed chatbot applications.

Scalable Support

Focus on proactive, meaningful support, leaving the agent to handle FAQs and routine questions. It’s a clear example of how the CXP framework drives real operational efficiency and impact — less admin friction, more connection.

User Roles & Authentication

Deliver hyper-individualized experiences based on multi-layered user roles (prospect, student, faculty, etc.) pulled directly from integrated core systems.

Verified Information

Ensure users receive accurate, reliable responses — with sourced, verified and open responses pulled from your integrated systems, other hub areas and websites.


  • “Pathify gave us a lot of control — being able to take multiple systems and data and put it all in one place. We wanted a one-stop shop. We also felt Pathify was going to be a true partner with us.”

    Adam Janecke, IT Business Analyst, University of Northwestern-St. Paul

  • “It was important for us to have a tool that simplified student access to different systems. Pathify quickly enabled that capability.”

    Rob Henderson, Chief Technology Officer & Vice President for Technology, University of the Pacific

  • “When students can’t find what they need, it affects their success. It can affect the student graduating if they don’t know how to connect with financial aid or how to connect with an instructor. That communication and support is so student-centered with Pathify.”
    Tara Bias, TRiO Student Development Specialist, Lassen College


  • “With Pathify, we’ve partnered to connect to other critical systems that students need access to so we can drive them to one place.”
    Bret Ingerman, Vice President of IT at Tallahassee Community College

  • “Pathify is a great partner — they helped consolidate a number of engagement systems into one platform. We replaced our legacy chatbot with Pathify — saving some budget along the way.”
    Ryan Adkins, Cloud Application Administrator, Alabama A&M University

Frequently Asked Questions

An AI Agent aligns perfectly with Pathify’s mission to simplify the college experience, positioned to surface and nudge users toward relevant information while generating fast, reliable and verifiable responses to student questions.

Pathify’s AI Agent obtains verified answers by directly accessing institutional systems (like the SIS or LMS), avoiding the potential inaccuracies of GPT models that might generate plausible, unverified responses. Our Agent focuses solely on institutional content, ensuring data confidentiality and implementing safeguards to prevent fabricated answers.

Additionally, Pathify is working closely with Google, leveraging the Vertex AI platform. Pathify chose to partner with Google largely because it shares Pathify’s goal of using responsible AI.

Pathify’s Agent is backed by the stable release of the latest Google models and remains in its original, balanced state without additional training on customer or Pathify-specific data. Pathify’s AI Agent focuses on providing context on a per-question basis to maintain the Agent’s broad capability of answering a wide range of inquiries.

This approach ensures the AI Agent remains versatile and effective. In short, the Agent relies on context management to achieve response relevance.

The Agent will not store or share any sensitive information pertaining to an institution’s constituents or systems. Pathify’s AI Agent guarantees user data privacy by adhering to strict data protection protocols and never sharing information with third-party entities like Google, ensuring all data remains confidential and secure.

The Agent will use explicitly targeted and whitelisted websites as declared in the Admin Center — the same content which shows up in Pathify’s search bar as External Resources.

The Agent also searches and retrieves information from FAQs, events and calendars, tools, pages, and other Hub content, dynamically crawling these resources to provide accurate responses. The Agent also searches across connected providers, including the Student Information System (SIS) and Learning Management System (LMS).

Under the current architecture, the Agent will not go to the internet to perform a live search while evaluating a query.

Pathify’s AI Agent displays two distinct verification icons — one indicates the answer is based on provided data sources (Pages, FAQs, external sources) but may still be subject to inaccuracy while the other confirms the information is sourced directly from connected, verifiable sources (SIS, LMS).

The AI Agent can be configured with a profile picture, name and welcome message. It will also pick up an institution’s branding and light/dark mode preference from the authenticated individual.

Institutions can further customize the Agent’s behavior to match their specific needs and content structure. Within the Admin Center, Admins may adjust how the Agent responds to different inquiries with various settings. This interface allows Admins to see which content sources are considered and how they influence the Agent’s response.

The Agent connects with Pathify’s fast-growing list of integrations with higher ed’s most popular systems to display information like balances, holds, grades or GPA, schedules, assignments, and more. Pathify also provides access to Flow so institutions can easily connect the Agent with information housed in any system.

AI Agent data is sortable by time sequence, role and is downloadable for deeper analysis. The Agent offers real-time insights into user interactions, including:

  • Number of conversations
  • Active users
  • Number of messages sent
  • Average messages per conversation
  • Verified answers
  • Failed answers
  • Most used keywords
  • Active days
  • Returning users
