An AI Assistant for International students & Immigrants


From immigration to daily essentials, Askie helps navigate life in America with clarity, structure, and support.





A Nation of Immigrants, A Need for Clarity



In 2023/24, the total number of international students in the U.S. increased by 7% to a record high of 1,126,690 students









International students come from a wide range of cultural backgrounds and have different levels of knowledge and expectations when it comes to navigating life in the U.S.








At the same time, the U.S. is a nation of immigrants, with people from all over the world making up a significant portion of the population. Many of them spend a great deal of time and money trying to understand how things work here — and as part of that community ourselves, we truly understand the challenges they face.







Built by immigrants, for immigrants
Askie is founded by a team who’ve gone through the process – students and worker, who know the system inside-out.
