About

EdSights is an AI-powered student voice platform founded in 2018 by sisters Claudia and Carolina Recchi, who drew on their experience moving from Italy to the US for college. The platform helps colleges and universities increase student retention by deploying AI chatbots (named after each institution's mascot) that engage students via SMS text messaging. Through ongoing conversational check-ins, EdSights collects non-cognitive data — identifying students at risk due to financial stress, food insecurity, emotional well-being challenges, or academic struggles — and connects them with appropriate campus resources. The platform generates a Student Voice Score (SVS) and real-time insights dashboards for administrators, enabling proactive intervention at scale. EdSights partners with 240+ universities, has demonstrated retention increases of 7%+, and raised $80M in strategic growth funding in September 2025.
