📍 Booth 2

75% of the top US universities use Guidebook

Transition starts at orientation. Students shouldn’t get lost in it.

Families who can’t find answers call your office. Students who miss a session miss more than the session. Guidebook puts the schedule, map and answers on every phone.

Printed packets nobody reads

Weeks of design work left on a table. Prospective students can't find parking info when they need it most.

No-shows with no signal

Last-minute changes get buried in email. Families show up to the wrong building with no way to reach them.

Tour guides flying solo

Student ambassadors run hospitality at scale with a binder and a walkie-talkie. Training churn is relentless.

Yield events that don't prove ROI

Leadership asks how engaged admitted students were. Your answer is a sign-in sheet and vibes.

One app per event, one bill per event

Separate tools for open house, yield day, orientation, and family weekend — each with its own budget approval cycle.

Virtual tours that feel like Zoom

Distant prospects still need to feel the campus. Static 360 viewers and YouTube walkthroughs don't close the gap.

Orientation. Transition.
Every step after.

The student at summer orientation is the same student at Welcome Week and family weekend.

Build every event in one branded app, and they keep finding their way on the device already in their hand.

Your app. Your team. Your timeline.

Orientation runs it. Student life, residence life and family programs build on the same app when they’re ready.

Your team builds, updates and launches it. IT sets up single sign-on.

Give your orientation leaders a break from the same five questions.

Your OLs should be welcoming students, not repeating parking directions. Guidebook puts the answers on every phone before the questions start.
