WHY HAVANA
Why Educational Institutions Choose Havana
Admissions teams are overwhelmed by thousands of inquiries, many unresponsive or unqualified. Traditional tools like Intercom weren't designed for the unique challenges of educational recruitment. Havana's AI student recruiter works 24/7 to engage prospects across multiple channels, revive dormant leads, and deliver only qualified applicants to your human advisors—all while seamlessly integrating with your existing CRM.
Dormant Lead Revival
Revive Your Cold Lead Database
Systematically re-engage old, unresponsive leads from your CRM that your team has given up on. Havana automatically identifies dormant prospects, qualifies them, and turns them into new enrollment opportunities.
Always-On Lead Response
Engage Prospects 24/7
Unlike Intercom, Havana contacts new inquiries instantly, day or night, across all time zones. Perfect for reaching international students and working professionals when they're most responsive.

TESTIMONIALS
Don’t just take our word for it
"The results have been pretty incredible. Usually our teams are skeptical of tech, but for Havana, different teams were fighting to be the first to get it."
Bryan Palmer, Chief Commercial Officer EMENA, Global University Systems
"Within 2 months, we got conversions. The AI got students who had abandoned their applications to start talking again. It ended up converting leads we had given up on."
Pia Horner, Assoc Director & Head of Student Recruitment, University of Europe for Applied Sciences
"We sometimes receive 1000s of leads from student fairs. It's hard for us to follow-up with all of them quickly, but Havana's AI increases our speed-to-lead dramatically, boosting conversion rates."
Director of Student Recruitment, Top-50 Business School
