Higher Education
AI Built for Higher Education
Onyx integrates with your LMS, ticketing system, knowledge bases, and custom applications — giving you AI that works how you work.
24/7 AI support for every student
Faculty love teaching. They don't love answering "when is the midterm?" for the forty-seventh time. Onyx handles the routine questions so your team can focus on what actually requires a human.
Every answer a researcher needs, in one place
Grant guidelines buried in PDFs. IRB procedures scattered across portals. Fund restrictions locked in a spreadsheet somewhere. Onyx surfaces the right institutional knowledge instantly so faculty spend less time searching and more time on the research itself.
AI you control. Data you own.
Your students' data. Your institution's policies. Your infrastructure. Onyx is built so you maintain full control over what the AI knows, who can access it, and where the data lives.

Onyx for Higher Education
How Onyx helps
Eliminate student service wait times
Admissions, financial aid, registration, housing — deliver instant, accurate answers instead of phone queues and email backlogs.
FERPA-ready from day one
Deploy on-prem or in your cloud. Student records never leave your environment. Granular role-based access ensures compliance with institutional governance requirements.
Grounded in your data, not the internet
Generic AI hallucinates. Campus AI can't. Onyx grounds every answer in your institution's actual knowledge base — so students get the right answer, not a confident-sounding guess.
