-- The Retention Crisis in Higher Education
Nearly 50% of online college students drop out, not due to a lack of ability, but because of poor structure, disconnection, and lack of support. Traditional tools like Learning Management Systems (LMS) and Student Information Systems (SIS) are often fragmented, leaving students without the necessary resources to stay engaged and organized.
Flo-Ops, a mobile-first student success platform, is changing that.
By unifying academics, student life, and institutional support into one centralized experience, Flo-Ops helps schools retain more students and close equity gaps. Now, its modular AI agents deliver scalable, around-the-clock support—while working seamlessly with existing campus systems.
Modular AI Agents: Personalized, Scalable Support
Flo-Ops introduces four key AI agents designed to support students and streamline institutional workflows:
- AI Advisor: Personalized academic planning, course recommendations, deadline alerts, and campus resource referrals—powered by real-time LMS + SIS data.
- AI Tutor: On-demand study guides and quizzes created from professor-uploaded materials, reducing faculty workload while promoting independent learning.
- Advisor Genie: Pre-meeting student insights, auto-generated notes, and follow-up actions—saving hours of manual documentation for advising staff.
- Campus AI: Crawls a school’s public-facing website to post relevant events, workshops, and resource updates—keeping students aware of everything happening beyond the classroom.
Each agent is modular, FERPA-compliant, and optional. Institutions can activate one, some, or all agents—depending on department, campus, or course preferences.
Designed for Faculty, Advisors, and Administrators
Flo-Ops isn’t just built for students—it’s designed to help everyone in the student success ecosystem.
With seamless two-way LMS integration, assignments, files, and announcements created in Flo-Ops sync directly with systems like Canvas—and vice versa. Faculty avoid double-posting, and students stay fully informed across platforms.
Staff and advisors benefit from real-time insights on student progress and automated outreach powered by Advisor Genie—reducing administrative burden while increasing effectiveness.
Institutions also maintain full control with granular permission settings, allowing faculty to decide what students can access, upload, or share within their groups. The result: a flexible, secure platform that supports both academic freedom and operational efficiency—without adding extra work.
A Unified, Mobile-First Experience
Flo-Ops brings together every aspect of student life—academic updates, tutoring, advising, and social engagement—into one seamless platform. Whether students are learning in person, hybrid, or fully online, Flo-Ops keeps them connected, organized, and engaged from their phones.
Unlike platforms that aim to replace your LMS or SIS, Flo-Ops enhances them. By overlaying systems like Canvas and WCOnline, it transforms existing tools into a unified, mobile-first experience—without requiring a costly tech overhaul.
A Mission Driven by Experience
Flo-Ops was founded by Giovanni Estrada, a first-generation Latino college graduate and former educator who experienced firsthand the challenges faced by underserved students. Estrada’s vision was to create a platform that met students where they are—on their phones—and provide them with the support, organization, and structure they need to succeed.
Flo-Ops is built with equity and accessibility at its core, ensuring that first-generation and nontraditional students have the tools they need to stay engaged and succeed in higher education.
Proven Impact Across Campuses
Flo-Ops has already been implemented at institutions across the U.S., with early results showing significant improvements in student engagement and retention. The platform’s AI-powered agents are particularly valuable for schools facing staff shortages or high turnover, as they extend support beyond regular working hours and help reduce administrative burdens.
For example, when students log into the Flo-Ops app, they’re greeted with a personalized dashboard featuring assignments, events, and advising updates—all in one place. The AI Advisor helps them plan courses and access relevant support resources, while the AI Tutor generates study guides and quizzes from actual class content. At the same time, advisors use Advisor Genie to streamline their caseloads with pre-meeting insights, auto-notes, and follow-up tasks—saving valuable time and improving support.
Looking to the Future of Higher Education
As higher education continues to evolve, Flo-Ops is committed to partnering with institutions to create more connected, student-centered learning environments. This fall, we’ll collaborate with select colleges and universities to implement modular AI agents in real-world settings—supporting students, staff, and faculty alike. With a flexible and scalable platform, Flo-Ops aims to enhance engagement, simplify support, and help more students reach the finish line.
