Campus Pro Tours isn’t a virtual tour or a self-directed tour – it’s the first and only solution that uses everyone’s mobile phones to make in-person, student-led campus tours more accessible, more engaging, and more memorable.

Using speech-to-text technology and a clean, simple interface, every guest can see their tour guide’s narration right on their phone in real time. It takes less than one minute to start a tour.

After the tour, visitors can receive the full annotated tour transcript and map that shows them what they liked, the pictures they took, and the memories they made.

Campus Pro Talks uses the same patent-pending interactive mobile technology as Campus Pro Tours to increase accessibility and engagement for any in-person talk. Use it for any talk, presentation, lecture, info session, class, and more!

It takes less than two minutes for a Campus staff member to create and schedule a Talk. They can set the level of audience engagement and follow-up for each talk. Every audience member can see the speaker’s words right on their phone in real time. If chosen by the campus, they can ‘heart’ things they like, take notes for themselves, take photos, raise hands, submit a question to the speaker, and get their full annotated tour transcript and map that shows them what they liked, the pictures they took, and notes they made during the Talk.

A Great Experience for Prospective Students

Live Transcripts

A live transcript of their guide or speaker's narration on each guest's phone ensures accessibility for visitors who are deaf or hard of hearing and makes sure tour participants and attendees don't miss a thing. Visitors can receive the full transcript after the tour.

Learn What they Love

Prospective students, their families, and other attendees can make note of what they love during the tour or talk using the "like" button. When they receive the transcript, they can easily see and remember what they loved. For Talks, campuses can decide whether to send a transcript.

Instant Connection

Visitors can instantly get their guide's attention during the tour to ask questions or send comments. Because most guests don't remember what they hear, visitors also see their guide's name, major, and hometown. For talks, the campus decides how the audience engages.

Lasting Memories

Visitors can access their phone's camera directly from the Campus Pro Tours UI so that they remember more of the experience and can view the photos they took of the campus while on their tour. For Talks, campuses can disable photos if they wish.

How Campus Pro Tours Works

The tour guide logs in on their mobile device, opens a new tour session, and shares the unique tour QR code with the prospective students and visitors on the tour.

After scanning the code on their mobile device to join the tour, participants provide their name, email (optional), and share how the college ranks in their choices. 

As the tour begins, the guide’s phone converts their narration to text and participants are able to see the live, scrollable transcription on their devices.

During the tour, visitors tap to “like” things they hear, raise their hand to get the guide’s attention, send questions to the guide, or access their camera to capture a memory.

When the tour ends, visitors rate the tour, update their ranking, share feedback for the admissions office, and confirm their email to receive a link to the tour transcript.

Admissions staff have access to a tour database with all transcripts, questions, feedback, and annotations in order to improve tours and follow-up with prospective students.
