Frequently asked
questions

Yes. Koji is designed with student data privacy at its core. All student data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is controlled through role-based permissions, and we execute Data Processing Agreements with every institution. Student responses can be fully anonymized, and no personally identifiable information is shared without proper consent protocols in place.
Koji works alongside your existing LMS and SIS infrastructure. Students access conversations through a simple link — no app downloads, no LMS plugin required. This means zero IT overhead for deployment and works across Canvas, Blackboard, D2L, Moodle, and any other system. We also support SSO/SAML for institutional authentication.
Regional accreditors (SACSCOC, HLC, WASC, MSCHE) require evidence of systematic feedback collection and continuous improvement. Koji provides richer evidence than traditional surveys — structured conversations that demonstrate you're listening to student voice and acting on it. The platform generates accreditation-ready reports mapping insights to improvement actions.
Research from Princeton's TigerGPT project found that about half of participants preferred AI chatbot surveys over traditional forms, citing the personalized flow and supportive tone. Students complete Koji conversations at significantly higher rates than surveys because the format feels natural — like texting, not like filling out a government form.
This is one of Koji's strongest advantages. Research shows female instructors receive ~6% lower scores and non-white instructors ~4% lower scores in traditional evaluations — bias that creeps in when students rate the person, not the experience. Koji's conversational approach focuses on course experience questions, significantly reducing the personality-rating bias that plagues traditional evaluations.
Absolutely. Most institutions start with course evaluations and expand to campus climate assessments, student exit and transfer interviews, new student orientation feedback, alumni engagement, student wellbeing check-ins, and faculty or staff satisfaction conversations. The same conversational approach applies everywhere you currently use surveys.
We understand higher education procurement. Koji supports standard RFP processes, provides security documentation for IT review, and offers flexible pricing based on institution size. We can start with a department-level pilot to demonstrate value before scaling institution-wide. Many institutions begin with a single use case and expand as they see results.
When used for internal institutional improvement (course evaluations, climate surveys, etc.), Koji typically does not require IRB review, as the purpose is operational, not generalizable research. If you plan to publish findings externally, exempt review is usually sufficient for conversational survey data. We can help you navigate this with your IRB office.
