Frequently asked questions
What is Pathly for school counselors?
Pathly is an AI-native college and career readiness platform built to support school counselors managing large caseloads. It gives every student free access to career assessments, college and trade school exploration, and personalized roadmaps — while giving counselors a dashboard to track student progress, identify who needs support, and document interactions. Pathly is designed to align with the ASCA National Model and helps counselors focus their time on high-impact student conversations instead of administrative work.
How much does Pathly cost for schools and students?
Pathly is always free for students. Schools and districts can start with a free pilot that includes the counselor dashboard, high-level student progress tracking, and career exploration tools. Private counselors can start a free 7-day trial and choose from monthly and annual subscription plans. Paid plans unlock advanced features like multi-school reporting, district-level analytics, and advanced counselor features: AI student insights, conversation starters, assessment results, notes, announcements and more. There are no per-student fees for students to use the platform.
How does Pathly help school counselors manage large caseloads?
Pathly’s counselor dashboard surfaces real-time student progress across career assessments, college research, and roadmap milestones — so counselors can quickly see which students are on track and which need outreach. Built-in caseload filters, follow-up tasks, and progress signals replace spreadsheets and manual tracking. Counselors using Pathly report spending less time on admin and more time on meaningful student conversations, even with caseloads of 300+ students.
How does Pathly protect student data and privacy?
Student privacy is foundational to how Pathly is built. All student data is stored in secure, US-based infrastructure with strict access controls, so each student’s information is only visible to the people they’ve explicitly given access to. Our AI mentor runs on zero-retention models, meaning student conversations are never used to train outside systems. Counselors only see what students choose to share, and students can review or remove access at any time. Privacy isn’t a feature we added — it’s the foundation we built on.
How is Pathly different from other college planning tools?
Most student planning platforms start at the application — deadlines, transcripts, and lists. Pathly starts earlier, where the real decisions happen: helping students figure out who they are, what they care about, and what kind of life they want to build. From there, every roadmap, recommendation, and conversation is personalized to that student. Counselors get a clearer picture of each student’s direction and progress, so the time they spend together is more focused, more meaningful, and more productive. Pathly isn’t another piece of software for your caseload — it’s the layer that makes everything else work better.
