We live to connect people
Sofiri is a shared-economy online platform where aspiring international students can connect with experts in education.
With Sofiri, education experts offer aspiring students:

Sofiri represents a new way of thinking about recruiting for education, by effectively allowing prospective students to connect with education counselling service providers (i.e. education experts), whenever and wherever they are.

Who we are not
- We are not an education agency
- We are not a course-search or a course comparison website
- We are not a careers counselling website
- We are not education consultants or a university admissions consultancy
Our education experts are independently operating individuals
Our education experts are individuals who operate independently and who need to undergo a rigorous vetting process to ensure they meet mandatory requirements. This is to ensure Sofiri experts possess high-level industry knowledge and skills to guide prospective international students through course selection, application, offer acceptance and visa application.
What is our secret ingredient
Our service is part of the business phenomenon that is transforming industries and challenging traditional business ideas across the globe.
- An in-language platform that uses geo-location to provide review based education expert connections.
- A fully transparent system with 360-degree visibility for education providers.
- An automated part of the journey that will reduce counselling time to experts.
