“What about the course content caught your interest?”
Spend less time crafting the perfect survey—and stop guessing the answers in advance.

Follow-up
When a student says something interesting or unclear, the AI asks a follow-up question. You learn what is behind their answer.
What mattered when you chose your programme?
The courses sounded interesting and the lecturers had a good reputation.
How did the lecturers’ reputation influence your choice?
I got the impression that it would be easier to get support here.
Where did you get that impression?
I heard it from students at an open day. I couldn’t find the same information on the programme page.
Insights
The AI finds recurring themes and organises them into clear insights.
Applicants often cite lecturers’ reputations and access to support as key reasons for choosing a programme.
Expected support influences the decision—not just the course content.
Some applicants favour better-known universities because they believe the name will strengthen their CV.
Make it easy for applicants to see your programme’s strengths.
Prospective students ask more questions during school visits and find the conversations more relevant. Large fairs often confirm what they already know.
The same time and budget can create more meaningful conversations.
Recommendations
Konvolo turns the findings into clear recommendations for social media, programme pages, resource planning and communications with admitted students.
Create content where students describe the supervision, feedback and support they receive.
Real examples of support build confidence and set clearer expectations.
Highlight specific roles, employers and career paths to make the programme’s value clear.
Help applicants compare programmes on more than reputation and understand what sets yours apart.
Spend more time at schools, where student ambassadors can answer prospective students’ questions, then follow up with relevant digital content.
More relevant conversations reduce uncertainty and strengthen motivation.
Less work. More understanding.

Trust & privacy
Participants do not need to provide their name or contact details. Universities see what students think—not who said what.
Students can respond without giving their name or contact details.
Students can speak openly about their decisions, concerns and experiences.
Frequently asked questions
A student scans a QR code and answers an opening question. The AI then asks relevant follow-up questions to understand the reasons behind their decisions, needs and concerns. This gives you deeper answers without requiring you to write every possible question in advance.
Your first interview can be ready within 48 hours. We define what you need to learn, then set up the interview, QR codes and dashboard.
You do not need to read, sort or code responses manually. The AI analyses each interview, finds recurring patterns and turns them into clear insights and recommendations. You can still review every response and ask Konrad, our AI assistant, your own questions.
Timing, context and how you introduce the interview all affect participation. We help you choose when and how to ask. Sharing a QR code while students are together in a classroom makes it easy to take part and often leads to more thoughtful responses.
