A community your school owns, that moderates itself
Public or private chat boards for year groups, interests and events, with real-time, alumni-led conversation. Smart Moderation powered by OpenAI flags anything inappropriate for your review before it reaches the community, so safety scales without a full-time moderator.
Included from Lite ($349/mo), Growth, and Pro.
eplaces a $300 to $800 per month community-moderation platform, with AI moderation built in from the Lite tier. Lower cost, lower legal exposure, lower operational overhead.
Reunions get planned, professional advice gets exchanged, and mentorships start in casual threads, but it all happens on channels the school does not own, cannot moderate, and cannot protect. If a Facebook group turns sour, or gets used as a recruitment pipeline, your school's name is on it and you have no control. Most schools avoid running their own channel purely because of the moderation burden.
Chat Groups gives the school a community channel it owns, with the moderation built into the platform rather than resting on a staff member reading every message.
Public and private groups, multiple threads, real-time chat. OpenAI flags anything inappropriate for your approval before it publishes, and a daily digest summarises activity. Alumni request their own groups and manage their own notifications. A community channel that runs itself, safely.
Smart Moderation, powered by OpenAI
The AI moderator flags inappropriate content for your review before it ever reaches the community feed. Profanity, harassment and off-topic spam are all surfaced for a quick decision, without anyone reading every message. Community safety scales automatically, which is exactly what has always made schools nervous about running a channel of their own.
Email notifications keep members active
Members get email summaries of new activity in their groups even if they do not open the app daily, so the conversation comes to them. Frequency is configurable per member, so it stays welcome rather than noisy.
Public or private chat boards
Public boards for year groups, interests and regional alumni. Private boards for committees, fundraising teams or sensitive discussions. Permission controls per board keep the right people in the right rooms.
Connect by year, interest, or event
Class of 2003, architecture professionals, Sydney alumni, the 2026 reunion group. Boards organise the community around what alumni actually have in common, which is what makes the conversation start on its own.
Pinned posts, threaded replies, mentions
Modern chat UX alumni already know: pin important announcements, reply in threads to keep conversations tidy, and mention specific alumni to draw them in.
Alumni request their own groups, and a daily digest keeps you across it all
Alumni propose new groups around a year, an interest or a city, and you approve with a click, so the community grows its own spaces without your team dreaming up every channel. One daily email then summarises all group activity and anything the AI flagged, so you approve or remove in seconds. Alumni manage their own weekly notifications, so engagement stays opt-in and the whole thing runs on a couple of minutes of your time a day.
Community moderation that doesn't require a full-time community moderator.
Open the moderation queue Monday morning. Three messages flagged by the AI over the weekend. One is genuinely inappropriate, remove. Two are false positives where context made them harmless, approve. Total moderation time for the entire weekend's community activity: under two minutes.
Active alumni conversation that builds community without the risk of an unmoderated channel.
Schools historically avoided alumni chat because of the moderation burden and reputational risk. Smart Moderation makes the safety net structural, not labour-intensive. The school regains a community channel without taking on a community-management job.
Replaces external moderation tools and the legal exposure of running an unmoderated channel.
Community moderation tools typically cost $300 to $800 a month per platform. AI moderation is built into Chat Groups at the Lite plan. Lower cost, lower legal exposure, and lower operational overhead than running a community elsewhere.
Chat Groups, with its AI moderation included, switches on at the Lite tier alongside Events and Jobs. By the time you have alumni registering and attending, a safe, school-owned place for them to talk is the natural next step, and it runs on the same login and brand as everything else.
Set up your first year-group chat and open it to your 1995 cohort for the upcoming reunion. Watch conversations start within hours, with AI moderation quietly protecting the community in the background.
