We put AI to work across every department, from enrollment to accreditation. Built for Cobb County School District, the 23rd largest in the nation.

Who We Are
We're an AI team that works inside education.
ShooflyAI partners with districts and colleges to put AI to work on the operational load nobody went into education to do. We start with a hands-on audit, ship a focused pilot, then scale what proves out.

01
Education-specific
We've built for K-12 districts and career colleges across admissions, student services, records, and advancement. Not generic AI consulting.
02
Assessment-led
Every engagement opens with an AI Operating Assessment, so the roadmap is grounded in your real workflows, systems, and numbers.
03
Human-centered
Our agents are built to feel human first. Families and students should feel helped, not handed off to a bot.
04
Safe with student data
We design around FERPA and your district's privacy policies from day one. Your data stays in your systems and never trains anyone else's model.
The Drain
Every department is buried in busywork.
Admissions chasing inquiries. Student services buried in records and forms. Communications juggling campaigns, reputation, and accreditation. Finance stuck in manual reporting. Across the institution, skilled people spend their days on work software should handle, and things slip through the cracks every day.

Every
unanswered inquiry is a student or family who looks elsewhere
None of this is a people problem. It's a tooling problem, and it's exactly the kind of work AI agents are good at.
What We Build
One system for the whole institution.
Not a chatbot dropped on your homepage. A team of AI agents wired into the work that consumes your staff, department by department.
01
Enrollment & admissions
Agents that fill the funnel and follow up the moment interest comes in, so no inquiry goes cold and more of it turns into enrolled students and starts.
02
Student & back-office operations
Records, transcripts, placement tracking, and finance busywork handled end to end, pulled straight from the systems you already run.
03
Communications, reputation & accreditation
Campaign and newsroom agents that tell more of your story, plus monitoring for board reputation and an accreditation tracker that flags issues early. A human reviews every alert.
How It Works
From audit to live in weeks.
A clear path from "where is the time going?" to agents running in production.
01
Step 01
AI Operating Assessment
We sit with your team and map every department's workflows, systems, and numbers. You get a prioritized audit of where AI pays off first.
02
Step 02
Pilot the top opportunity
We build one focused agent or automation against your highest-ROI workflow. Real, in your stack, not a demo.
03
Step 03
Deploy with your team
We launch into production, train your staff, and tune it on real usage until it's pulling its weight.
04
Step 04
Scale what works
With proof in hand, we expand to the next workflows and departments on the roadmap.
Proof
Real work, real institutions.
Our work spans K-12 districts and higher ed: a full operating system for one of the nation's largest school districts, and a company-wide AI assessment for a multi-campus college group.
Cobb County
We built the agentic operating system behind Cobb County School District, the 23rd largest in the nation, across 112 schools and 100,000 students. A team of AI agents plans campaigns, runs social, and powers a virtual newsroom that took the district from 7 stories a week to 65 a month. Its flagship campaign was an AI Santa families lined up to talk to, raising funds and spreading real holiday magic. AI that doesn't feel like AI.
Board watch
The same system keeps the district ahead of risk: an accreditation tracker that flags issues early with human review built in, plus board and reputation monitoring across local press and social. Leadership and the board get one clear view instead of a scramble.
Higher ed too
A multi-campus college group brought us in for a full, company-wide AI operating assessment across all six departments, from admissions and student services to career placement, finance, and IT, delivered in 48 hours with a ranked plan of where AI pays off first. The same assessment-led playbook scales from K-12 to higher ed.
The Pattern
Same story, every campus.
Whether it's a school district or a college group, the shape is identical: skilled people buried in repetitive admin while the mission work waits.
01
The work compounds
Every new student, donor, or term adds more manual follow-up. Headcount can't scale with it.
02
The systems don't talk
SIS, CRM, finance, and LMS hold the data, but staff still move it by hand between them.
03
The mission pays
Time spent on paperwork is time not spent on students, families, and outcomes.
What We Don't Do
No hype. No black boxes.
We automate the tasks, not the people. Your staff stop doing what software should have handled all along and get back to the work only they can do. We don't replace teachers, advisors, or front-office staff.
We don't sell you a generic chatbot, a year-long transformation, or a model you can't see into. We find the few workflows where AI clearly pays off, prove it on real work, and hand your team agents they can trust. If it won't move a number, we won't build it.
The Alternatives
Why not the usual options?
Option 01
Hire more staff
More headcount for repetitive work is expensive, slow to hire, and still leaves people doing tasks software should.
Option 02
A big SaaS suite
Generic platforms make you bend to their workflow and still leave the manual glue work to your team.
Option 03
A generic AI consultancy
Slide decks and pilots that never ship. You pay for strategy and still have nothing in production.
ShooflyAI
The education-specific team
We assess first, build into your real stack, and ship agents that earn their keep. Scoped to start small and prove a number, not a year-long contract.
The Offer
Start with an AI Operating Assessment.
One assessment. A prioritized AI roadmap for your institution.
We sit with your team, map the workflows in every department, and hand back a ranked plan for where AI pays off first. Grounded in your systems and your numbers, not a template. For a multi-campus college group, we delivered the full picture in 48 hours.
The assessment fee is credited toward your pilot if you move forward.
FAQ
Questions districts ask first.
How long until an AI system is live in our district?
We start with an AI Operating Assessment that maps your workflows in 48 hours, then scope a focused pilot. Most districts see a first working agent live within weeks, not months.
Does this replace teachers or staff?
No. We automate the manual admin work that pulls staff away from students, so your people spend their time on the work that needs a human.
Is student data handled safely?
Yes. We deploy systems with role-based access and data-handling controls, and a human reviews sensitive actions before they go out.
