Pharis is an early warning system for university dropout: it supports students while they study and alerts professors and administrators when someone starts drifting away from their group, based on their activity and submissions in the LMS.

Schedule 10 minutes with this student this week.
Out of every 10 students who start university, fewer than 5 graduate.
In Latin America, dropping out is not the exception: it is the norm.
Why they leave
The causes rarely come alone.
- Money and work
- Academic gaps
- Emotional health
- Adjustment and career fit
Common causes across the region. For example, those cited by Mexico's SEP at the Universia Rectors' Meeting, May 2026. More figures and sources in University dropout in Latin America.
Almost none of them shows up on a report card until it is too late.
Same student, two realities.
His submissions say he is doing fine. His activity compared with his group says otherwise.
Illustrative case: Diego Ramírez over 16 weeks. His submissions in the LMS are on time until week 13 and the first zero appears in week 14. His activity compared with his group, which Pharis reads every day from the same LMS, starts dropping in week 5, and in week 6 Pharis alerts the professor. In this example that is eight weeks to step in before the first zero.
By the time the problem shows up in submissions, it is already a zero.
From LMS activity to alerts for professors and administrators.
Three steps. Students just study as usual; the system does the rest.
A tutor that knows their class, not a generic search engine.
Pharis supports students with the context of their own course and leads them to understand, not to copy.
-
Knows their assignments and course materials
It answers with the real assignment brief, readings and calendar of their course, not with answers from the internet.
-
Available on Windows and in Chrome
A lightweight Windows app or a Chrome extension. Students choose.

Guides without doing the work for them
It gives hints, asks questions and checks the reasoning. It never hands over the finished assignment: it helps the student solve it.
The dashboard your LMS doesn't give you.
Pharis turns each student's daily work into actionable teaching analytics, without asking you for an extra hour.
Pharis doesn't grade. It guides your judgment.
Every alert and every analysis is a starting point. The decision always belongs to the professor.
The whole institution, in a single view.
Adoption, grading and students who are fading out, by professor and by course. No reports to request.
Which students still don't use Pharis, by professor and course.
Detections go only to leadership, never to the professor. A person reviews them and decides the next step.
- Only your institution.Each administrator account sees only its own institution's data.
- Alerts with human judgment.Messaging alerts go only to leadership: professors teach, leadership looks out for students.
- Trends, not snapshots.Every indicator shows how it has moved over the last 12 weeks.
Everyone sees what they need.
The same signal reaches the student, the professor and each area of the institution, with what each one needs to act.
A tutor that knows the course.
Pharis knows their assignments, instructions and materials, and guides them step by step so they understand instead of copying.
Students always know they are talking to an AI.

Who is falling behind, and why.
A dashboard of their groups that updates every day, with the risk score, the reasons and what to do this week.
Pharis suggests; the professor decides whether to write, meet or refer.
See Pharis for professorsIllustrated example, fictional data.
Which alerts already have a contact.
Follow-up for the groups they coordinate: how many students are at risk and which ones are still waiting for someone to reach out.
Every contact is logged: who, when, through which channel and how it ended.
See Pharis for coordinatorsIllustrated example, fictional data.
The cases referred to them, with context.
Receives referrals from professors and tutors with what they need to handle them, and books the appointment from there.
Wellbeing cases are confidential: professors do not see them.
Illustrated example, fictional data.
The financial signal, next to the academic one.
If the institution shares outstanding balances or scholarships, Pharis adds them to the risk to reach students about to leave over money sooner.
It is optional and adds to the risk with a fixed, explained adjustment.
Illustrated example, fictional data.
The whole institution, in one view.
Risk, follow-up, grading speed and which actions are working, by professor and by course.
No decision about a student is automatic.
