About
A data foundation for student success
Higher education has no shortage of data - but too often it's fragmented across disconnected systems, limiting institutions' ability to turn information into action. DataKind Converge was created with broad-access institutions to help colleges and universities connect their data, unlock better insights, and make more informed decisions that improve student outcomes.
Built with higher education, not just for higher education
DataKind Converge grew out of work with broad-access institutions, bringing together institutional leaders, researchers, technologists, and student success practitioners throughout its development. By working directly with the people who use the platform, we're creating technology that reflects the real operational challenges - and opportunities - facing higher education today.
Rather than replacing existing systems, DataKind Converge connects them, helping institutions unlock greater value from the technology and data they already have.
DataKind is a mission-driven technology nonprofit building trusted data infrastructure and AI-powered products to help mission-driven organizations make better decisions and deliver greater impact.
Within higher education, our growing portfolio reflects a shared vision: giving institutions the tools they need to transform data into action. DataKind Converge provides the trusted data foundation, while DataKind Edvise helps advisors turn those insights into more personalized, proactive student support.
These solutions reflect DataKind's commitment to helping colleges and universities strengthen decision-making, accelerate innovation, and improve student success through trusted data and responsible AI.
