Ocelot Passes 400th Higher Education Client Milestone, Expands Integrated AI Product Line

Ocelot, the leading provider of Artificially Intelligent Conversational Chatbots for colleges and universities, announced a new milestone: eclipsing the 400th client mark.

Colleges have long had shortages of advisors to assist students. And the abrupt shift to online and remote education only exacerbated this problem.

To scale advising and student support, many institutions have turned to Ocelot’s easy-to-use, cloud-based, personalized AI Enrollment and Advising Platform. Student usage across Ocelot grew 262% between March and May.

Colleges on the Ocelot platform span 47 states and include community colleges, 4-year public and 4-year private institutions.

“Students are getting what they need—they are less stressed. Staff are able to focus. Answers are consistent and right. This product drives enrollment and retention,” said Michael Bennett, AVP, Financial Assistance Services at St. Petersburg College.

“Many colleges face an existential crisis: students need advising and support more than ever, and yet the institutions need to do ‘more with less’,” said Damon Vangelis, Ocelot Founder and CEO. “We envision a world in which schools ‘repeat themselves less, and engage students more’, meeting students where they are, using AI tools 24/7/365 in a personalized way.”

Ocelot’s unrivaled and continually growing knowledgebase of text and video content spanning over 20 student service departments, including enrollment and financial aid, supplements the content colleges can add to their Ocelot services.
