WHY HAVANA
Why Educational Institutions Choose AI Recruitment

Havana's AI recruiter works around the clock, engaging prospective students across multiple channels and languages. It pre-qualifies leads based on your criteria and integrates seamlessly with your existing systems, ensuring your team only speaks with enrollment-ready candidates.

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
