College starts with a conversation.

No. Spike works with what you already have. It helps you settle your college list, plan around your deadlines and finish your essays.

Most students feel that way. Spike looks at what you actually spend your time on, helps you describe it well, and finds programs and competitions that build on it.

No. It helps you find the idea, outline it and revise your draft. The words stay yours. Colleges ask you not to submit AI-written work, and it tends to read as hollow anyway.

Tell Spike what you want, like size, location, major and cost. It suggests schools that fit and marks each one a reach, target or safety based on your grades and scores.

It finds scholarships you actually qualify for, checking your grade, state and GPA first, and shows the amount and deadline for each. There’s also a free calculator that estimates your federal aid.

Nothing you do in Spike gets sent to a college. And since Spike coaches you instead of writing for you, everything you submit is your own work.

ChatGPT talks about college. Spike keeps your file: colleges, deadlines, activities, drafts. It checks every requirement against the school’s own site, and keeps working between conversations.
