Loop: live voice call, waveform + transcript
It listens
No intake form.
You talk about your classes, your team, the thing you quit, the school your mom keeps mentioning. Spike asks the next question a good counselor would ask.
Grounded in 300+ colleges with real deadlines, real costs, and real admissions data behind every read.
Now live · voice
Just talk.
Open Spike and say what's on your mind. It answers like a counselor who already read your file, because it did. Ten minutes of talking does more than an hour of forms.
Where you are
Two different problems. Same counselor.
Find the thing you're actually about, then go build it.
There is nothing to package yet, and that is the point. Spike helps you notice what you keep coming back to, and turns it into projects, competitions, and programs that are real work rather than résumé filler.
- Name the thread running through what you already do
- Find opportunities you're actually eligible for
- Plan the next two years backwards from where you want to land
How it works
You already have a spike. Most students just can't see it.
A spike is the one thing you're unmistakably about. Spike finds yours the slow way, out of things you have already lived, and then makes it legible to the people reading your application.
Loop: a fact from chat filing itself into the profile
It remembers
Every detail lands somewhere.
Grades, courses, activities, the things you care about and the things you keep avoiding. It builds a picture of you in the background, so you never explain yourself twice.
Loop: gap named → task added → opportunity found
It tells you what to do
