The problem

Scholarship season is a part-time job nobody has time for.

Thousands of scholarships, scattered across hundreds of sites, each with its own deadline, essay, and requirements. Most families find a handful late, miss deadlines, and leave real money on the table. College search is the same story a year earlier — visits, requirements, and application windows tracked on sticky notes.

What you get

Saffron, configured for your student.

Built on Claude, running on your own accounts. Not software you have to learn — a working system I set up and hand to you.

Daily scholarship search

New matches — filtered to your student's grades, activities, intended major, and school — land in a simple board you both check from your phones.

Deadline tracking

Nothing slips. Every live opportunity has its deadline, requirements, and status in one place.

Application drafting help

First drafts of essays in your student's voice, ready for them to make their own. They do the work; the system removes the busywork.

College search mode

For juniors: schools matched to your student's goals, ranked reach/target/safety, with visit planning and requirement tracking for the whole cycle.

Parent visibility

You see everything without nagging anyone. One glance tells you where things stand.

You own all of it

Everything runs on your accounts, in your student's name. Your family's information never touches mine.

Why me

I built this for my own kids first.

I'm a 25-year operations executive — and a dad. I built this system for my own family: my son's scholarship pipeline for his freshman year, and my daughter's college search for her recruiting cycle. It runs every day in my house. I'm not selling software; I'm setting up the working system I trust with my own kids, configured for yours.

How it works

Four steps, about a week.

1

Free 30-minute call

Your student, their goals, and what you're juggling. No obligation.

2

Setup week

I build and configure the assistant on your accounts. You own everything from day one.

3

Handoff session

I walk you and your student through it — takes about an hour. Then it's running.

4

Optional monthly check-in

I keep it tuned, fix anything, and adjust as deadlines shift through the year.

What it costs

Priced like a setup, not a subscription.

Setup (one-time)$1,250
Optional care plan$75/mo
AI usage (your own account)$5–15/mo
Founding-client rate: the first two families get setup at $950 in exchange for honest feedback and a testimonial.

No expensive subscription required — the assistant runs on your own Claude account for a few dollars a month.

Straight talk

What this isn't.
