The questions agencies ask us most often.

Getting started

Getting started

What to expect in your first four days, and how AdmitOps fits around what you already run.

Standard implementation takes four days and is covered by your plan’s one-time set-up fee — £99 on Starter, £149 on Growth, £299 on Scale, with no hourly consulting bills attached. We waive it for agencies that sign up on the day of their demo.

  • Day 1 — Configuration and migration: your corridors, qualification threshold, document checklists and branding are set up, and existing student records are migrated by us.
  • Day 2 — Channels connected: WhatsApp Business, email, calendars and any CRM integration are wired up and tested against real message flow.
  • Day 3 — Counsellor training: live sessions on demo data or authorised, redacted cases, plus recorded walkthroughs for new starters later.
  • Day 4 — Go live, watched: you run on the platform while we monitor closely and fix friction as it appears, then a short review call.

Standard implementation runs over about four days and is covered by your plan’s set-up fee. Express set-up is an optional add-on that compresses it into one day, for a further one-time fee of £99 on top of that set-up fee. You still get configuration and migration, channel connections, counsellor training and go-live — just run back-to-back in a single day, with our team dedicated to your rollout for that day.

Express set-up suits agencies who need to be live for a specific intake deadline. To book it, mention Express set-up when you sign up or email support@admitai.co.uk and we will schedule a day that works for your team.

No. AdmitOps connects to WhatsApp Business, Gmail or Outlook, and common education CRMs including Meritto and LeadSquared. Most agencies run it alongside what they already have for the first few months, then consolidate once the team trusts it. Migration of your existing student records is included in setup.

All five modules — AdmitOps, Market IQ, Founder IQ, Settle IQ and Risk IQ — are included on every plan. The tiers differ on seats, branches and support, not on what the software can do. Each plan carries a one-time set-up fee — £99, £149 and £299 respectively — which we waive for agencies that sign up on the day of their demo.

As a rough guide: Starter (£49/month) suits solo consultants and new agencies — one counsellor seat, one branch and 30 students a year. Growth (£99/month) is the standard deployment for an established agency — 3 seats across 3 branches and 100 students a year, plus unlimited campaigns, proactive Lead Finder, offer letter capture, university evidence packs and a custom Student Hub subdomain. Scale (£199/month) is for multi-branch groups and representative networks — unlimited seats, students and branches, multi-branch dashboards, the sub-agent register, network-wide commission control and priority support.

If you are not sure, compare the plans or book a demo and we will tell you honestly which tier fits your volume — including if the answer is “not yet”.

Email support@admitai.co.uk with the counsellor’s name and email. If you are within your plan’s included seat count we add them the same day; if you need more seats than your plan includes, we will confirm the adjustment before making any billing change.

Onboarding, data migration and training are covered by a single one-time set-up fee — £99 on Starter, £149 on Growth, £299 on Scale, waived if you sign up on the day of your demo. It covers configuration of your corridors and document checklists, migration of existing student records, connecting your channels, and live counsellor training. See “How does implementation actually work?” above for the day-by-day breakdown, or “What is Express set-up?” if you need it done in a single day.

AdmitOps & assessments

AdmitOps & assessments

How document reading, assessment reports and the visa risk scan actually work.

Vision AI reads passports, transcripts and IELTS certificates, then populates the application form fields for you — turning roughly 45 minutes of manual entry per file into about 2 minutes. A four-point validation check catches name mismatches, expired documents and unreadable scans before anything is submitted, so problems surface before they cost you a round trip with the student.

Grades are mapped to UK equivalences, and Report IQ builds a Reach / Match / Safe shortlist with an acceptance probability per university, visa timeline, IHS cost and matched scholarships — delivered as a branded PDF under your agency’s name, not ours. Typical generation time is around 4 minutes, down from the 3–4 hours this usually takes manually.

The report is counsellor-released: your counsellor reviews it before it goes anywhere near a student. The AI never publishes a report directly.

Before a visa application goes in, the Visa Risk Assessor scans the full profile and flags weak points — a bank statement short of the threshold, an unexplained study gap, thin travel history — with a specific fix list for the counsellor to work through. It is pre-submission control, and it is counsellor reviewed like everything else that reaches a student or a portal.

Because the documents involved — passports, bank statements, academic records, visa declarations — deserve a human check, not just an automated one. No assessment report reaches a student until a counsellor has reviewed and released it, and AI-generated outputs are sampled weekly for accuracy and brand safety. This is a deliberate design choice, not a limitation we are working around.

AdmitOps prepares, autofills and validates the application so it is ready to go — your counsellor completes the actual portal submission. That keeps a person in control of the final step, where a mistake is hardest to undo. If you need the specifics for a particular university’s portal, ask us at support@admitai.co.uk.

The IQ modules

The IQ modules

Market IQ, Founder IQ and Settle IQ — what is in each one, and how visibility is controlled.

They are the three modules that sit around AdmitOps in the same sidebar, all reading and writing the same student record. Market IQ covers everything before a student reaches a counsellor. Founder IQ is the view of the business itself. Settle IQ covers the student after the offer. All three are live in the platform today.

Above the four sections sit Dashboard, Inbox and Students, which are always available.

They are not priced separately. As of 29 August 2026 all five modules — AdmitOps, Market IQ, Founder IQ, Settle IQ and Risk IQ — are included on every plan, switched on from your first day. Starter at £49 a month gets the same modules as Scale at £199; what differs is counsellor seats, branches, automation volume and support.

If you were previously quoted separately for a module, that quote is superseded — email partner@admitai.co.uk and we will move you onto the current plan.

One thing is still quoted separately: Market IQ managed services, where our team runs your marketing, branding and outbound sales rather than you running the module yourself. That is an optional monthly retainer on top of your subscription, not a feature unlock. No obligation, and no sales sequence afterwards.

Four: Lead Finder for proactive discovery on public forums and social platforms, Campaigns for segmented WhatsApp and email broadcasts, Lead Capture for inbound enquiries scored and routed from every channel, and Referrals for the tiered student referral programme.

Four: AQF Compliance for evidence against the National Code, Analytics for corridor and counsellor KPIs, CommissionIQ for commission due, chasers and reconciliation, and Forecasting for intake forecasts from the live pipeline.

Seven: Academic Support, Interview Preparation, Accommodation Finder, Forex, Banking & Insurance, Career & Work Rights, Wellbeing Check-ins and Alumni Engagement.

Individual partner integrations behind accommodation, forex and insurance depend on the commercial agreements in place for your corridors. We confirm which are available to you during discovery.

Not yet. The seven Settle IQ screens run in the agency workspace, where your counsellors deliver the service. Surfacing them to students inside the Student Hub itself is separate work and is not live — see Student Hub for the screens students have today.

Yes. Sidebar visibility is configurable per agency for both the staff dashboard and the student portal, so a section you do not use can be hidden rather than sitting there empty. Dashboard and Settings cannot be hidden, because the surface stops being usable without them. Tell us at support@admitai.co.uk which entries you want hidden and we will set it.

Student Hub

Student Hub

The white-labelled portal your students use, and how it stays separate from admitAI as a brand.

Their dashboard and pipeline stage, an application tracker with milestones, a document vault with specific validation feedback, the SOP studio, scholarship matches, messages and guidance, counselling session booking, and their referral programme — all under your logo.

Yours. The Student Hub is white-labelled — your logo, your agency name. Students should never learn that admitAI exists behind it.

No, and this is deliberate. Students are your clients, not ours. If a student does reach us somehow, we will not discuss their case — we will refer them back to you and let you know within three business days. The one exception is a genuine data protection request, which we handle as described in our Privacy Policy.

Enrolled students get a shareable link and QR code with tiered rewards and a live earnings tracker, giving you a trackable way for satisfied students to bring in the next intake without a manual referral process on your side. Agency-side it lives on the Referrals screen in Market IQ.

Integrations & channels

Integrations & channels

What AdmitOps connects to today, and how visibility into AI-handled conversations works.

WhatsApp Business API, Gmail, Outlook, Meritto, LeadSquared, Jotform, Google Calendar and Zoom or Google Meet. If a tool you rely on is not listed, tell us — integration requests are logged and prioritised by how many agencies ask for the same one.

For initial intake — qualifying a lead over WhatsApp, for example — yes, the AI can respond directly, and every message is logged to the student record in real time so your team can see it as it happens. Anything higher-stakes, like an assessment report or visa guidance, goes through a counsellor review gate before it reaches a student. Consent and suppression handling for outbound messages is enforced at the send layer in line with GDPR and PECR.

Channel connections are part of Day 2 of onboarding for anything already supported (Day 1 if you have booked Express set-up). To add one after go-live, email support@admitai.co.uk with which system and what you need it to do — we will confirm feasibility and timeline.

AQF compliance

AQF compliance

How AdmitOps helps you organise evidence against the UK Agent Quality Framework.

The National Code of Ethical Practice for Education Agents sets five standards UK-facing agencies are expected to meet. Most agencies say they follow it; very few can produce evidence when a university partner asks. The five standards are organisational behaviour, ethical business practice, objective advice, student-centred practice, and organisational competence.

  • Standard 1 — Organisational behaviour: governance, conflicts of interest, sub-agent transparency, marketing approvals.
  • Standard 2 — Ethical business practice: fee transparency, signed student agreements, a complaints process, fraud prevention.
  • Standard 3 — Objective advice: impartial shortlists, no commission bias, honest marketing, a refund policy.
  • Standard 4 — Student-centred practice: realistic advice, pastoral care, under-18 consent, data confidentiality.
  • Standard 5 — Organisational competence: UK knowledge training, counsellor certification, per-university briefings.

The configurable operational checks are mapped against these five, so evidence gaps show up against a specific standard rather than as a vague “you are not compliant”.

The AQF Compliance screen in Founder IQ maps configurable operational checks to the Code, surfaces potential evidence gaps, and prepares a quarterly self-assessment plus partner-specific evidence packs. It is worth being precise here: it supports your process, it does not certify compliance — that responsibility stays with your agency. See AQF Compliance for the detail.

It is included from Growth upward. Scale additionally covers sub-agent tracking and AQF evidence across a multi-branch or representative network. See Pricing, or ask support@admitai.co.uk if you are not sure which tier you are on.

The self-assessment is prepared quarterly by default, so your evidence pack reflects roughly the last three months of operational checks. If a university partner requests evidence ahead of your next scheduled refresh, email support@admitai.co.uk with the deadline and we will confirm whether we can bring the pack forward.

The gap is surfaced against the specific check and standard it relates to — not just “Standard 2 incomplete”, but which fee-transparency or agreement check failed and for which record. That is deliberate: a flagged gap should tell your compliance owner exactly what to fix, not send them hunting through five standards to find it.

Yes. AdmitOps organises and surfaces your evidence and monitors the operational checks — it does not replace a designated compliance owner on your side, and it does not deliver the counsellor certification or UK-knowledge training that Standard 5 itself calls for. Think of it as the system that makes your existing compliance effort demonstrable, not a substitute for it.

Yes — the evidence packs are built for exactly this. AdmitOps organises and surfaces your operational evidence against the five standards so you can respond to a partner’s audit request on your own timeline, rather than reconstructing it from scratch. We do not represent your agency to a university or certify anything on your behalf.

Security & data

Security & data

You are handing us passports, bank statements, academic records and visa declarations. Here is how that is handled.

  • UK GDPR and DPA 2018-aligned controls
  • AES-256 encryption at rest; TLS 1.2+ in transit
  • Logical tenant isolation with scoped access controls
  • Documented retention and deletion workflows
  • Human review gates for student-facing AI outputs

Your agency’s data is used to run your workspace, not treated as free training material for us to hand elsewhere. For the precise contractual language — the kind of thing your legal team will want in writing, not in a help article — request our Data Processing Agreement from privacy@admitai.co.uk or see Data processing.

Email security@admitai.co.uk directly with what you found and how to reproduce it. Treat it as P1 — see “Response times & escalation” below for what happens next. Please do not post details anywhere public first.

Email support@admitai.co.uk to request an export of your student records and documents. Retention and deletion after export follow the documented workflow in your Data Processing Agreement — ask privacy@admitai.co.uk for the specifics that apply to your contract.

Yes. Suppression lists and opt-out handling are enforced at the send layer, in line with GDPR and PECR, before any outbound WhatsApp or email message is sent.

Account & billing

Account & billing

How pricing works, and where to go for invoices or plan changes.

A flat monthly fee per agency, however many students you process — no commission share, no per-seat surprises within your plan’s included seats, no annual lock-in required. A one-time set-up fee covers onboarding, migration and training. Annual billing saves 20% versus paying monthly.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Common issues, and what to check before you email us.

DocuFill’s four-point check most often flags one of: a name mismatch between documents, an expired document, an unreadable or low-resolution scan, or a mismatched document type (a bank letter uploaded where a bank statement is expected). Ask the student to re-upload a clearer copy of the specific flagged document — the portal tells them exactly which one and why.

Because reports are counsellor-released, catching it before it reaches the student is exactly what that review step is for — do not release it. Email support@admitai.co.uk with the student reference number and what looks off (a specific university, probability, or figure). Please do not send the student’s documents — the reference number is enough for us to look up the record.

First check whether it is one student or several, and one counsellor or the whole team — that alone usually tells us whether it is a connection issue on your WhatsApp Business account or something on our side. Then email support@admitai.co.uk with that detail plus roughly when it started.

Ask them to use the forgot-password link on their portal sign-in page first — most login issues are an expired link or a mistyped email. If that does not resolve it, email us the student reference number (not their password or documents) and we will check the account directly.

These targets become contractual once included in your signed order form or support schedule. First response means a human assessment, not an automated acknowledgement. Confirm your specific coverage before go-live.

You do not need to assign a severity yourself — describe the impact and we will classify it. Say so if we get it wrong and we will re-triage.

CRITICAL · P1
Platform down or data at risk

Nobody can log in, student data is inaccessible or visibly incorrect, or a suspected security breach.

  • Work starts immediately and continues until resolved
  • Updates at least every 2 hours
  • Written post-incident review within 5 business days
HIGH · P2
A core workflow is blocked

Assessments will not generate, documents will not upload, applications cannot be submitted, or the Hub is not syncing.

  • Workaround the same day where one exists
  • Fix targeted within 3 business days
  • Daily updates until closed
NORMAL · P3
Something is wrong, but workable

A feature behaving oddly, a report formatting incorrectly, a validation flag that looks wrong.

  • Fix scheduled into the next release cycle
  • We tell you which release
LOW · P4
Questions and requests

How do I do X, please change a setting, we would like a new feature, can you add a corridor.

  • Config changes usually done the same day
  • Feature requests logged, honest odds given

Most delay in support is one round-trip asking for detail. Four lines up front usually saves a day:

1
What you were trying to do
“Generating an assessment report for a student applying to Leeds, September intake.”
2
What happened instead
The exact error message if there was one, or a screenshot. “It did not work” costs us both a day.
3
When it started
The first time you saw it, whether it worked before, and anything that changed that day.
4
The student reference
The reference number from the record — not the student’s documents or personal details.

Please do not email us passwords, and do not paste a passport or bank statement into a ticket — the reference number lets us look up the record ourselves.
