University answers you can trust, in Telegram.

The problem

Finding reliable, current university information is hard.

International students often struggle to find information they can rely on and that is still up to date.

• Admissions

  Requirements and procedures are spread across many pages and are hard to piece together.

• Documents

  It is rarely clear which papers are needed, in what form, and who accepts them.

• Deadlines

  Dates change, and an outdated answer can cost a student a whole term.

• Campus life

  Everyday questions about housing, services, and student life have no single reliable home.

How it works

Three steps from question to answer.

1. 1

   Ask in Telegram

   Send your question to UniAssist in plain language, like you would message a friend.

2. 2

   The bot retrieves verified info

   It looks up relevant passages from verified university information instead of guessing.

3. 3

   Get a sourced answer

   You receive an answer grounded in that information, with its source.

Status

Early access, currently testing with students.

UniAssist is an early-stage project that I designed, built, and deployed myself as a solo developer. It is being tested with a small group of students, and it will keep changing based on what they find missing or wrong.
