WHY HAVANA
Lower Acquisition Costs While Increasing Enrollments
Admissions teams struggle with overwhelming lead volumes and repetitive tasks that drive up recruitment costs. Many valuable prospects go cold due to delayed follow-up. Havana's AI student recruiter works around the clock to engage every lead instantly, qualify prospects efficiently, and revive dormant contacts. This dramatically reduces cost per acquisition while allowing your human team to focus exclusively on high-intent students.
Revive Dormant Leads
Turn Sunk Costs Into New Enrollments
Havana systematically re-engages old, unresponsive leads in your CRM that human teams have abandoned. Convert previously paid-for leads into qualified prospects without additional acquisition spend.
Automated Qualification
Focus Only On Qualified Prospects
Havana pre-qualifies leads by asking about entry requirements, financing, and program interest. Your admissions team only spends time on high-potential students, dramatically improving conversion efficiency.

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
