Reviews

What universities and educators say

“I have been using two Fastbots AI agents as learning coaches as part of my PhD research and I am in the process of creating a third. I have been very pleased with their performance and with the support I have received.”
Lynn LongSenior Education and Learning Specialist, University of Waterloo · Canada
“I personally believe that fastbots is one of the best platforms for an individual to provide information to via chats. I would surely prefer fastbots as the best source for providing information.”
Nelson JohnTraining and Development, Parul University · India
“Best chatbot I have ever installed on any of my websites. It is very easy to use, straight forward, and very user-friendly; at the same time, it is very dynamic, robust, and powerful in performance. Great software indeed. Highly recommend it.”

More than a chatbot

It doesn't just answer. It works as an AI agent for your admissions team.

Connect FastBots to your recruitment tools, and a question on a course page becomes an enquiry in your CRM, a booked open day or a live chat with admissions.

  1. STEP 1

    Captures the enquiry

    Collects a name, email, course and entry year from prospective students, including international applicants.

  2. STEP 2

    Sends it to your CRM

    Passes enquiries to your recruitment CRM or a spreadsheet through Zapier or Make, so follow-up starts the same day.

  3. STEP 3

    Books the open day

    Shows your open day or campus tour link as a button. With Zapier MCP connected, it can book the place during the chat.

  4. STEP 4

    Hands over to admissions

    When a question needs a decision, like clearing or fee status, your team can step into the same chat with Live Chat.

Live Chat is on Business plan and above, and buttons are on paid plans. Booking and CRM actions during the chat use Zapier MCP and need a quick setup in your Zapier account.

FAQ

Questions universities ask us

Will it tell applicants whether they'll get an offer?

No. It explains entry requirements, accepted qualifications and how to apply, from your published pages. Offers and admissions decisions stay with your team, and you can tell the bot to make that clear.

Can it give visa advice to international applicants?

No. It can share your published fees, English language requirements and how international applications work. Visa and immigration questions go to your international team or official guidance, and you can set the bot to point people there.

Can it help with the clearing rush?

Yes, for the repeat questions. Train it on your clearing pages and it can explain how clearing works and how to reach your hotline, day or night. Keep those pages current during clearing. Offers stay with your clearing team, who can take over chats with Live Chat.

Can it tell undergraduate and postgraduate questions apart?

Yes, if your content is clear. Train it on both sets of course pages and add an instruction to check which level someone means. You can also run a separate bot for postgraduate study so each one stays focused.

Can it answer in other languages?

Yes. It can reply in around 95 languages, so international applicants can ask about courses, fees and accommodation in their own words. Check key details like deadlines and fees in the languages you recruit from most.

Can someone from admissions take over?

Yes. With Live Chat on Business plan and above, an admissions officer can step into the same chat during the hours you set. The applicant fills in a short contact form first, and you can set a fallback message for when nobody is online.

What do I get in the free trial?

14 days with 1 chatbot and 200 message credits, with no credit card required. That's enough to train it on one faculty's course pages and test it with real applicant questions.

How do we keep it current when course pages change?

Update your website and retrain the bot when something changes. On Business plan and above, auto retrain can refresh your website content daily, weekly or monthly, and you can see which questions it couldn't answer.

Still have a question?

Ask the FastBots chatbot in the corner, or just try it yourself.
