Admissions emails going to personal inboxes.
Students not knowing who to contact.

Educational institutions that route student queries through personal staff emails and WhatsApp numbers are creating a support experience that reflects poorly on the institution — and puts students at a disadvantage.

📧

"Admissions enquiries are going to different staff members' personal emails."

When prospective students email individuals directly, queries get lost during leave, missed during busy periods, and never escalated. Important enrolment opportunities fall through the cracks without any visibility to management.

🎓

"Students don't know who to contact — so they contact everyone at once."

Without a clear, centralised support channel, students email the registrar, WhatsApp their lecturer, and DM the institution on social media — all about the same issue. Staff end up duplicating responses with no coordination.

📁

"We have no record of complaints if they escalate to a formal dispute."

Student grievances require an audit trail — especially if they escalate to formal ombudsman or regulatory body complaints. Without a ticketing system, there's no defensible record of how the institution responded or when.

The Platform

One inbox for every department.
Traceable from first query to resolution.

Threadly gives educational institutions a structured, multi-department support platform — so students always know who's helping them, and staff always know what's open.

🏫

Department-Based Routing

Queries are routed automatically to the correct department — Admissions, Finance, Student Services, Academic, or IT — based on subject, keyword, or the channel they arrived on.

📬

Centralised Admissions Inbox

All admissions enquiries — from email, WhatsApp, website chat, or phone — route into a shared inbox with SLA timers. No enquiry goes unanswered during peak enrolment periods.

📋

Student Query Tracking

Every student interaction becomes a tracked ticket with a full thread history. Staff see all prior communication before responding — no more asking students to repeat themselves.

🕐

Response SLA Management

Set response time targets by department or query type. Overdue queries are automatically escalated to a supervisor. Every response is timestamped for compliance purposes.

📊

Reporting & Volume Insights

Track query volume by department, peak enquiry periods, response times, and resolution rates — useful for staffing decisions during admissions cycles and exam periods.

🛡️

Formal Complaint Audit Trail

Every message, status change, and escalation is logged with a timestamp and user record. If a complaint escalates formally, your institution has a complete, exportable record.

Four Channels. One Queue.

Students reach out on every channel.
Threadly brings it all together.

Students send emails, WhatsApp messages, live chat requests, and phone calls — often about the same thing, through different channels. Threadly unifies all four into one managed queue so no query is duplicated or ignored.

WhatsApp

Students routinely WhatsApp institutions directly. Threadly converts these into tracked tickets — so responses are managed, not forgotten in a chat thread.

Education use case
"Hi, I need to know if my bursary application was approved — I've been waiting for three weeks."
💬

Live Chat

Embed a chat widget on your admissions or student portal. Prospective students get instant responses — and all conversations are logged and assigned automatically.

Education use case
"I'm on the applications page right now. What documents do I need to submit with my form?"
📞

Phone

Connect your switchboard or department lines. Inbound calls create tickets automatically so phone queries are tracked alongside digital channels.

Education use case
"I need to speak to someone in the finance department about an outstanding invoice on my account."
Quick Setup

Live before the next admissions cycle.

No IT projects. No system integrations. Threadly is designed to be up and running before your next peak period — without involving your IT department.

Query Management

No query forgotten.
No student left waiting
without an answer.

What educational institutions are saying

Results that speak
for themselves

Schools, colleges, and universities using Threadly are responding faster, handling admissions more professionally, and finally have the audit trail they need when complaints escalate.

★★★★★

"During peak admissions, our team was drowning in emails across four different inboxes. Threadly gave us one place to manage everything. Response times halved and nothing gets missed now."

SV
Sandra V.
Head of Admissions, Greenfield College
★★★★★

"Students were WhatsApping lecturers directly with admin queries. Now we direct everyone to one number, and the right department handles it. It's professionalized our whole student support experience."

KM
Kwame M.
Registrar, Meridian Academy
★★★★★

"When a student complaint went to the ombudsman, we had a complete record of every interaction — date, time, who responded, and what was said. Threadly's audit trail made our case clear and defensible."

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Can different departments have their own queues?

+
Yes — you can create unlimited department queues (Admissions, Finance, Student Services, Academic, IT, etc.). Queries are routed to the correct department automatically based on the email address, keyword, or channel used. Each department only sees their own queue.

What channels does Threadly support?

+
Threadly supports Email (unlimited addresses), WhatsApp (via Twilio), Live Chat (embeddable widget), and Phone (via PBX webhook). All four route into the correct department queue automatically.

Can we use Threadly for formal student complaints?

+
Yes — every ticket in Threadly is a complete, timestamped record of all communication, status changes, and escalations. If a complaint escalates to a formal grievance or regulatory body, you can export the full thread history as evidence of how and when the institution responded.

How does the 14-day free trial work?

+
You get full access to all features of your chosen plan for 14 days — no credit card required. At the end of the trial you choose whether to subscribe. We'll send a reminder at day 10. If you decide not to continue, your account and data are deleted on request.

Can students track the status of their own queries?

+
Students receive automatic email acknowledgement when a query is logged, and can be notified when the status changes. A self-service student portal is available on the Growth and Enterprise plans, where students can view their open and resolved queries directly.

Is student data stored securely and compliantly?

+
Threadly is built on Supabase (PostgreSQL) with row-level security ensuring each institution's data is fully isolated. Data is hosted in EU-based data centres, GDPR-compliant, and never shared with third parties. Each institution's data is logically separated at the database level.
