100%

Trained on your viewbook

SamAI answers from your admissions handbook, tuition sheet, and FAQ — and politely routes anything else to your team.

What SamAI handles

From inquiry to scheduled tour, without a single email.

Tuition by grade band. Application deadlines. Financial aid availability. Whether you offer transportation from a specific town. The next open house date. SamAI answers from your handbook, then offers to book the family directly onto your tour calendar.
