Kyros AI Reviews 

Helpful but worth it? Being someone with no experience about college applications, I found some of the information helpful. I later discovered there are many options available online to get this information for free or at a significantly cheaper cost. AI features are very basic and SSMs counseling seemed more like unexperienced people reading a script.

We like Kyros a lot because there are many caring people out there. We have been worked with our Student Success Manager Charles Gao since 8th grade, Charles is a very good resource giving us many valuable suggestions such as course selection, summer planning and useful tips on time management. He led the way during this journey and made things much clear. Kyros also provides a lot of resources helping the student's growth, such as working with Mrs. Karin to earn congressional award. It is important to let them see where you need to be in a few years. So, it is beneficial to sign up early instead of just the senior year.

Great teachers and staff. Wealth of information with great tools to help you position and prepare for the college application. Very reasonable pricing. An innovative platform for college counseling. You know where you are based on AI and data behind, and how to get to the dream college.

Great admission advice and college essay editing service.

It has been a great experience working with my SSM, Jen, through Kyros. She gave extremely helpful advice on all parts of my application process, from my college list to my supplemental essays. The sprint programs on Kyros are also a great way to get tips and feedback for essay writing and other aspects of college.

Nathan is a great SSM who gave me great constructive advice on my supplementals, personal essay, and how to work my activity/honors list.

Kyros’ sprint programs and free webinars from professors/college admissions from famous universities, which helped me a lot.

I really appreciate the range of options that Kyros offers. The Student Success Management Team has been consistently helpful and proactive—reaching out with updates about new resources and courses, helping my son schedule 1:1 appointments with a counselor, and walking me through new features on their website. Their support has made it much easier to stay informed and make use of the services when I need them.

Kyros has been incredibly helpful throughout my high school experience. I’ve relied on it since freshman year, and now as a junior, I’m still using its resources regularly. It offers a wide range of tools that genuinely support students, and it’s been a great site for staying organized.

This is a 5-star review with areas that can be improved on. I am leaning towards 5 star because I am happy with what really matters in the admission process. Our SSM Nathan Tovar is highly experienced and insightful. The monthly 1:1 meetings has been super helpful for my senior student. 30 min is enough for us to go through the key points and he reviews stuff for students by emails, giving very helpful comments. We worked with another SSM Viki briefly and she is also very good. I found the sprint programs helpful to keep us on schedule, but the quality of instruction and feedback varies. The online resources are generic but organized.

She is professional, enthusiastic , meticulous, and explained things in detail. Thanks!

I like my counselor. I like the services I can access. Kyros is good

The 1:1 sessions are helpful because the counselor helps you directly with your goals, and even follows up with a list of programs/activities that you can look in too after the meeting

I've been using Kyros for a little more than a year and I can say its decent. They have lots of resources through their platform which is nice, but I found navigating their interface was quite difficult and confusing at first. The most useful part would be their 1:1 counseling sessions which I find really informative and useful. Other workshops that they offer are generally hit or miss, some can be useful but for the most part they're not anything extraordinary. I do wish that they restricted less higher level programs/workshops with another paywall since you're already paying for the Kyros platform. Other than that though, I'd say its pretty well rounded for an online counseling/college preparation platform.

I like this program a lot because there are many caring people out there. They lead the way during this journey and made things much easier. It is important to let them see where you need to be in a few years. So it is beneficial to sign up early in high school instead of just the senior year.

As a former user and now a TA at Kyros AI, I can say that the people at Kyros truly do care and want to help you with your college experience.

Working with Kyros has been an incredible experience. My mentor, Jen Liang, was always supportive, patient, and insightful. She responded to my questions quickly and accurately, and even helped me arrange a last-minute one-on-one session before my Early Action submission when I forgot to book in advance. Her warmth, professionalism, and dedication made the entire process much smoother.

The personalized feedback and step-by-step guidance truly helped me stay organized and confident throughout my college application journey. I’m very grateful for Jen’s help and would highly recommend Kyros to any student looking for expert, caring, and thoughtful college advising.

College applications can be stressful and confusing, especially at the beginning when everything feels like a mess. Jen from Kyros changed that for us. With her patient guidance and clear advice, things slowly started to make sense. She truly became a light for us, helping my child and me find direction and confidence along the way. I’m deeply grateful for her care, professionalism, and the warmth she brings to this journey.

Kyros has truly made a difference in my child’s college planning journey. With their caring support and expert guidance, she was able to gain meaningful internship experiences that helped her grow both academically and personally. Our SSM Kiki is incredibly reliable and knowledgeable, always offering thoughtful insights, step-by-step guidance, and valuable feedback through every milestone!
I also really appreciate the seminars they host, which helped parents better understand the college planning process and feel more involved. I’ve joined a number of these sessions, and the speakers they invite to share insights are always impactful and inspiring. The Spring Program was another highlight, giving students a chance to focus on building confidence, skills, and self-improvement in a supportive environment.
Overall It has truly been a wonderful experience, and I’m so thankful for the genuine support and care we received from them. Keep up the good work!!
