Aluminate for education & non-profits

Aluminate was conceived in the education sector and it will always be a sector we serve

We were built in universities. UCL, our first client, is still with us today. More of the UK's leading universities have run on Aluminati technology than on any other platform. Today, our expanded market focus helps accelerate our frontier R&D, which we then give to education at education prices.

Enterprise software. Education pricing.

Student mentee

Mentoring & employability

Turn your alumni into your students' career advantage.

The peer-support mentoring network pairs students and alumni at scale - mentors control their commitment, mentees ask tactfully, and the matching engine does the pairing, saving you from spreadsheet hell. Institutions run it for employability, offer-holder conversion and transition support: one university's alumni-ambassador program doubled the rate at which postgraduate offer-holders became students.

Email for life

Our bonus superpower: alumni email addresses that never die.

Our alumni email services give graduates an address they keep for life - the institution brand stays in their inbox, and your contact data stops decaying the day they leave. A service we've run for some of the world's most prestigious universities and colleges for over a decade.
