Invoke StudentSuccess vs LinkIt!

Invoke StudentSuccess analyzes student behaviors to identify learners who may not reach course outcomes and alert staff to intervention needs. It aims to flag students at risk of failing within a course’s first two weeks, and says it can detect struggles only days into a term. The product highlights factors behind its predictions and individual motivators, helping institutions structure personalized interventions, find relevant support services, and direct advising resources. Its analysis can include public-source attributes beyond academic records and use thousands of data elements without personally identifiable information. Capabilities include progress tracking, at-risk alerts, and SIS and LMS integration. Pre-built connectors include Canvas, Blackboard Learn, Zoom, Banner, and PeopleSoft. Institutions can customize student-data access to their governance guidelines and provision users. Invoke says its solutions meet FERPA requirements and support major cloud platforms. Each solution is customized for the institution. Pricing is not published and is available on request; Invoke says onboarding consultation typically takes up to a few weeks, while it can begin delivering insights in a few days.
