The platform

The central nervous system for your institution.

Fourteen core modules share one data layer. No more reconciling spreadsheets between finance, registrar, and the library. From admissions to graduation to alumni — one truth.

Core platform

Student & Staff Lifecycle Management, on one data layer.

Every student record, every staff record, every grade, every invoice, every asset — governed by one schema with role-based access, audit trail, and row-level tenancy.

  • Multi-tenant SaaS — each university is fully isolated
  • Subdomain + custom-domain mapping (portal.yours.edu.sl)
  • Offline-first mobile apps for 2G/3G networks
  • Agentic-first architecture — every module is AI-addressable

  • Student Information

    Single record from prospect → applicant → student → alumni. Photos, ID, guardians, health, next-of-kin.

  • HRM (Staff)

    Recruitment, contracts, payroll prep, appraisals, leave, and offboarding — all inside one system.

  • Academics

    Courses, sections, timetables, gradebook, exam scheduling and transcript generation mapped to WAEC/NCTVA.

  • Finance & Fees

    Multi-currency billing, mobile-money reconciliation, scholarships, and ministry-grant accounting.

  • Admissions CRM

    Four inclusive channels: bank API, admission PIN, pay-to-apply, and diaspora payments. Built for banked and unbanked alike.

  • Notifications

    SMS, WhatsApp, email, push — one dispatcher, templated, multilingual (English, Krio, Mende, Temne).

  • Reports & M&E

    Live dashboards for registrars, bursars, deans. One-click Ministry of Education exports.

  • IntelliServe AI

    Admission, Academic, Library, Finance and IT assistants. Cut staff load without replacing human judgement.

Staff lifecycle

Hire to retire, governed in one place.
