Hi Product Hunt! I’m Emad, founder of ApexApply. I built ApexApply because finding the right professor or research supervisor is still painfully manual. Students often spend months searching university websites, reading faculty pages, checking publications, and trying to guess who is actually relevant to their research interests. ApexApply is designed to make that process faster and more focused. You can upload your CV or describe your research interests, and ApexApply helps you find best-fit professors, understand why each match is relevant, and draft more personalized outreach emails. The goal is not to spam professors. The goal is to help students send fewer, better, more thoughtful emails to people whose work actually aligns with theirs. What makes ApexApply different: - Professor matching based on research fit, not just keyword search - Ranked faculty recommendations - Outreach email drafts tailored to the student’s background and research interests - A workflow built specifically for academic and research applications I’d love feedback from students, researchers, professors, and anyone who has gone through the grad school or research application process. What would make this more useful for you?
