  • AI counsellor answered fees and PTPTN at 11:42 pm and saved her details with consent.
  • WhatsApp from Grace (counsellor) 8 minutes after the enquiry.
  • Sequence sent the scholarship email on day 7.
Illustrative example.

Most enquiries are lost before anyone replies.

Scattered everywhere

Leads sit in counsellors' WhatsApp, Excel sheets, fair sign-up papers and ad dashboards — nobody sees the whole picture.

Slow follow-up

Students enquire at night and at weekends and compare several universities at once. The first to answer usually wins.

Marketing spent blind

Without tracking enquiries to enrolment, you can't tell which campaign, fair or agent actually brought students.

Features

Everything a recruitment team needs, in one system.

01

Capture every enquiry

Website and embeddable forms, education-fair QR booths, CSV import and an API. Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and Google ad links are tagged with UTM codes automatically.

02

No duplicates, no lost leads

The same student typing 012-345 6789 one day and +60 12-345 6789 the next is recognised and merged. Every lead is assigned to a counsellor in turn, with an instant email.

03

WhatsApp-first follow-up

One-tap WhatsApp with the greeting written, templates with the student's name and programme, and the WhatsApp Business Cloud API when you're ready.

04

AI admissions counsellor

Answers students 24/7 on your website and WhatsApp, in English, Bahasa Melayu and more — only from your own programmes, fees and FAQs — and hands serious enquirers to a counsellor.

05

Automatic nurture sequences

Welcome email now, WhatsApp tomorrow, call task on day 3, scholarship info on day 7. Sequences stop by themselves when the student applies.

06

Pipeline to enrolment

New → Contacted → Qualified → Applied → Offered → Accepted → Enrolled, with lead scoring, follow-up tasks and an alert when a lead waits too long for first contact.

07

Agents, referrals & the programme finder

A portal for overseas agents with automatic commissions, referral links for student ambassadors, and a quiz that matches applicants to programmes they qualify for.

08

Know what produces students

Cost per enrolment by campaign and event, conversion by counsellor and programme, and an intake forecast against your target.

AI admissions counsellor

Answers at 11 pm. In Bahasa Melayu. From your own information.

Add the chat to your website with one line of code, or connect your WhatsApp number. The assistant answers questions about programmes, fees, entry requirements, scholarships and hostels — only from what you publish — and never promises admission.

  • Asks permission before saving contact details (PDPA)
  • Hands the chat to a counsellor when a student is ready to apply
  • Every conversation linked to the lead's timeline
  • Counsellors can take over, reply and hand back at any time

How it works

From first click to registration day.

  1. 01

    Capture

    A student fills in your website form, scans the QR code at your fair booth, clicks your TikTok ad, or chats with the AI counsellor at 11 pm.

  2. 02

    Respond

    The lead is de-duplicated, scored and assigned in seconds. The counsellor gets an email and WhatsApps the student from the lead page.

  3. 03

    Nurture

    Sequences keep the conversation going until the student applies; the dashboard flags anyone waiting too long.

  4. 04

    Enrol & measure

    Stages update from your counsellors or your admission system. Reports show cost per enrolment and the intake forecast.

FAQ

Questions universities ask us

What is UniLead?

UniLead is a student recruitment CRM for Malaysian universities and colleges. It collects every enquiry from your website, ads, education fairs, WhatsApp and agents in one place, makes sure a counsellor follows up quickly, and tracks each student to enrolment.

Is UniLead compliant with the PDPA 2010?

UniLead is built for the Personal Data Protection Act 2010: every form records explicit consent with a timestamp, prospect emails carry an unsubscribe link, every change and export is in the audit trail, a student's data can be erased on request, and each institution runs on its own separate database.

How does the AI admissions counsellor work?

It answers students on your website chat and WhatsApp using only the programmes, fees, entry requirements, intakes and FAQ articles you publish in UniLead. It asks permission before saving contact details and hands the conversation to a human counsellor when the student asks for one, is ready to apply, or needs something it can't answer.

Do we need the WhatsApp Business API?

No. Without it, counsellors send WhatsApp messages from their own phones with the text pre-filled, and UniLead records them. When you connect the WhatsApp Business Cloud API, messages and the AI counsellor run on your official business number.

Can UniLead connect to our admission or student system?

Yes. A REST API lets your admission system look up and create leads and report each application stage, and signed webhooks notify your systems when a lead is created or changes stage.

Can we manage overseas recruitment agents?

Yes. Each agency gets a portal to submit students and see their progress, commissions are created automatically when a student enrols, and an agent can never claim a student who had already contacted you directly.

How long does it take to start?

A typical institution goes live in one to two weeks: we set up your deployment, import your programmes and existing leads, connect your website form and train your team.

Adakah UniLead menyokong Bahasa Melayu?

Ya. Kaunselor AI menjawab pelajar dalam Bahasa Melayu atau bahasa yang mereka gunakan, dan templat mesej boleh ditulis dalam Bahasa Melayu atau Inggeris.
