Applyindex is your comprehensive AI-powered academic assistant, designed to streamline the complex processes faced by master’s, PhD, and postdoc applicants, supervisors, and universities in the higher education ecosystem. While we are newcomers to the market alongside platforms like LinkedIn, Google Scholar, ResearchGate, and FindaPhD, Applyindex stands out by addressing the key gaps those platforms overlook.

The Problems We Solve

(i) For Applicants

My name is Amin Reyhani, a PhD graduate in Chemical Engineering from the University of Melbourne, Australia. Like most of you, I am originally from a developing country (Iran). With over 12 years of experience applying to universities in the USA, Australia, Turkey, and Germany, I’ve witnessed firsthand the frustrating chaos that is the biggest problem in the university application process.

From evaluating CVs to submitting applications, you navigate 10+ steps and sub-steps. You may assess your CV strength on platforms like GradCafe, gather information in Excel, or search for positions on various websites. It’s a complex and overwhelming process.

I created Applyindex, an all-in-one platform that serves as your AI academic assistant, simplifying your application journey. With Applyindex, you can manage every process step in one place, eliminating the chaos.

As mentioned, the university application process is often chaotic and overwhelming, with applicants needing to navigate 10+ steps and their sub-steps across different tools, depending on the degree you’re applying for. Applicants create Excel files to track every interaction with supervisors. Seeking positions involves scouring various websites. Evaluating CV strength can involve comparing theirs with previously successful applicants, checking universities’ websites, consulting with student agencies, or consulting social media bloggers. All these 10+ steps cause applicants to waste months finalizing their applications.

(ii) For Supervisors

Supervisors face their challenges: the overwhelming number of irrelevant inquiries from applicants. Sorting through these emails to identify qualified candidates is time-consuming. Approximately 80% of these communications are from applicants whose research interests don’t align with the supervisors’. This creates chaos, often leading supervisors to overlook the best candidates due to time constraints or during periods of unavailability, such as vacations or conferences.

(iii) For Universities

Universities are eager to connect their departments with the best talent but struggle with recruitment process inefficiencies. They need a solution that supports applicants and faculty in reducing friction and facilitating better academic connections.
