Watch a full profile become a plan.

From scattered activities to a committee-level read, school strategy, essay angles, and a 90-day roadmap — the full Summis story in about a minute.

The actual problem

Knowing how your application reads costs $5,000+. Everyone else is guessing.

How Summis works

From scattered evidence to a deliberate application.

One profile becomes a shared source of truth for every recommendation, school decision, and next step.

  1. 01Build one complete record

    Bring academics, activities, projects, awards, motivations, and target schools into the same view.

  2. 02Read the file as a whole

    Summis tests the evidence behind your story and shows how the same profile reads differently at each target school.

  3. 03Make the highest-leverage move

    Turn the diagnosis into sequenced work for this week, the next 30 days, and the rest of the cycle.

Inside the product

The questions behind a stronger application.

Short product demos that loop as you scroll. Each one resolves a different strategic decision.

What is this application actually about?

See the central idea a reader can support from the evidence already in your file, plus the competing impressions that dilute it.

  • Six committee-level scores, from Narrative Coherence to Academic Readiness
  • A strategy brief written in plain language, not a rubric dump
  • Your biggest gaps, ranked by how much they're costing you

Which schools fit the evidence?

Separate statistical possibility from strategic fit. Each school view combines official reporting with the particular strengths and gaps in your profile.

  • Reach, target, and safety tags based on your actual profile
  • GPA and SAT ranges pulled from official reporting
  • A direct link to the Common Data Set behind every number

What changes the read fastest?

The roadmap ranks work by leverage and timing, so a student can stop collecting generic opportunities and strengthen the evidence the application actually needs.

  • Tasks sorted into this week, 30 days, and 90 days
  • Each step tied to the specific gap it closes
  • Matched opportunities most applicants never find

See the judgment

A recommendation should show its work.

Not “show more leadership.” Not “make your essay memorable.” This excerpt shows the evidence, the diagnosis, and the next move in the same place.

Narrative read

“The strongest application is about using technology to help other students learn—not simply about being good at computer science. Robotics, peer tutoring, and StudyBridge make that direction credible.”

Biggest gap

The impact is described, not demonstrated. A short survey, a few simple outcomes, and a public project case study would turn promising activities into evidence an admissions reader can trust.

What families ask before they start.

How is this different from a private college counselor?

Private college counselors commonly charge $5,000–$7,000 for a basic package, while hourly support can run $200–$600 per hour. Summis gives you a committee-level read of your whole file, grounds its recommendations in official school data, and lets you revisit your strategy as your profile changes, for a fraction of that cost.

Where do your numbers come from?

From first-party sources: each school's published Common Data Set and official reporting. We cite the source behind every figure, so you can check the work instead of trusting a black box.

Is my child's information private?

Yes. Your profile is used only to generate your analysis. We never sell your data, and Google sign-in requests basic identity only — no access to Gmail, Drive, Calendar, or Contacts.

What grade should a student start in?

Anytime from freshman year through the fall of senior year. The earlier you start, the more of the 90-day roadmap you can act on — but even a senior benefits from a sharper read before applications go out.

Do you write essays or applications for students?

No. Summis shows you what your story needs and where the gaps are; the work stays yours. That's what keeps it authentic — and what admissions officers can tell apart.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. The Free plan gives you a committee-level read, a preview of your highest-priority gaps, and a blurred look at your personalized roadmap. Upgrade when you are ready to unlock the complete gap analysis and action plan.
