Overview

What They Do

Problem we are solving — Dakhila AI is solving the problem of a fragmented, opaque, and highly manual university admissions process, especially for students applying internationally. Today, students struggle with scattered and often outdated information about requirements and deadlines, lack access to personalized guidance unless they pay expensive consultants, and spend weeks navigating research, document preparation, and application tracking. This leads to confusion, inefficiency, and low confidence in making high-stakes decisions that significantly impact their careers and future opportunities. Dakhila AI addresses this by turning admissions into a structured, personalized, and AI-driven experience, enabling students to make better decisions faster while making the process more accessible and scalable.

Current traction — Dakhila AI has onboarded 50 users, growing at ~10% week-over-week driven primarily through organic channels and referrals. Users are actively completing profiles and engaging with core features like university discovery and application guidance, showing early signs of strong demand and retention. We are currently pre-revenue and focused on validating product-market fit, with early usage indicating that students are meaningfully progressing through real admissions workflows on the platform.
