Building an AI college counselor for families who can't afford $200/hr consultants

by

Hey everyone — I'm Phillip, a full-time IT engineer and dad of two.

I built ScholarPath AI after watching how expensive and confusing

the college admissions process is for families without access to

a private counselor. Five specialized AI agents handle scholarship

matching, essay coaching, admissions strategy, financial aid

guidance, and deadline tracking — the same kind of support

wealthier families pay $150-300/hour for.

My oldest daughter is actually beta user #1, navigating her senior

year applications right now using the platform.

We're launching on Product Hunt tomorrow (Aug 1), and I'd genuinely

love feedback from this community beforehand — what would you want

to see in a tool like this? What's missing from existing college

prep tools that's frustrated you or your family?

Happy to answer any questions about the AI agents, the tech behind

it, or the mission.
