Fred for education & childcare.

Answer families, students, and prospects around the clock. Configure guardrails for your business and reserve professional decisions for your team.

Answer the family. Protect the child.

Fred is an AI voice and chat agent for schools and education providers. It answers enrollment, program, and tuition questions and captures prospective families around the clock.

Education runs on questions from parents and students, along with sensitive records and decisions that belong with school staff. Configure Fred for general program information and inquiry capture. Keep student records, eligibility decisions, and individual assessments in approved staff workflows; automated checks can miss sensitive submissions.

Education & childcare questions.

Why won’t Fred collect a child’s information?

Children’s data is protected under COPPA and FERPA, so a chat box is the wrong place for a name, birthday, or photo. Fred answers questions and routes a person to handle records securely. Configure and test the relevant rules; checks can miss phrasing or context.

Why won’t Fred make admissions or eligibility decisions?

Admissions, aid, and eligibility calls require official review of a complete file. Fred shares general requirements and routes the right office.

How does Fred handle a safety, abuse, or Title IX concern?

Configured patterns can surface resource messages and request team attention. Detection can miss context, and a notification does not guarantee receipt or response. For urgent help, contact the appropriate emergency or specialist service directly; do not wait for this chat.

Does each specialty get its own rules?

Yes. Every specialty runs its own compliance pack tuned to the rules that business lives under, and every install can add its own custom rules on top in the admin.

Answer every family. Protect every child.
