How it works

Ask naturally

Tell Claude or ChatGPT what you're trying to figure out. No search filters, no dropdown menus — just a question.

The graph connects

Open Campus Advisor traverses the academic graph in real time — live course data, faculty research, degree requirements, and career outcomes across all five institutions.

Navigate your path

Get a grounded answer, not a guess. Every fact traces back to live catalog data, faculty profiles, or NIH grant records. Ask follow-up questions to go deeper.

What students ask

Path & career

›“I want to work in climate policy — which of these schools is strongest for that path?”

›“What would my academic path look like if I want to become an ML engineer?”

›“What does a climate policy analyst actually earn, and which majors lead there?”

›“I'm choosing between Stanford and MIT for CS — what are the curriculum and research differences?”

Academics

›“What CS courses can I take as a freshman this fall?”

›“What are the prerequisites for CPSC 365 at Yale?”

›“Show me all first-year seminars related to climate or the environment.”

Research

›“Which CS professors at MIT do machine learning research?”

›“I'm interested in neuroscience — which professors at Columbia should I approach?”

›“Which BIOL faculty have active NIH grants right now?”

What it knows

Course catalog

Search any college or university's live course catalog by topic, department, or instructor. Get prerequisites, enrollment data, gen-ed requirements, and first-year seminars — current as of today.

“What can I take as a freshman in the CS department?”

“Which courses fulfill the quantitative reasoning requirement?”

Faculty & research

Find professors by research topic, see their active NIH grants, publications, and lab opportunities. Compare research strength across all five institutions simultaneously.

“Who at Stanford studies large language models?”

“Which BIOL faculty have active NIH grants?”

Academic paths

Navigate from a career goal backwards to majors, courses, and professors. Or start from a college or university and see where each major leads — salary ranges, job outlook, and typical employers included.

“What major and courses lead to climate policy work?”

“Compare CS programs at MIT and Stanford by curriculum and faculty.”

For colleges & universities

Any college or university with a public course catalog can be connected. Students get live course search, faculty research, degree requirements, and career path navigation — all through Claude or ChatGPT, with no new app to install.

Every query is logged anonymously. Your institution gets a dashboard showing what students are actually exploring — trending topics, popular departments, common career paths — updated in real time.
