Guidebook is building a native integration with Slate, Technolutions' CRM for higher ed admissions and enrollment. If your institution manages recruitment, events, or orientation in Slate, this integration is designed to connect that work directly to your Guidebook guides.
Why we're building this
Many of our EDU customers run Slate and Guidebook side by side, but the two systems don't talk to each other today. That creates real friction for event and admissions teams:
The same event often has to be built twice — once in Slate, once in Guidebook.
Attendance and check-in data collected in the app doesn't make it back to the student's record.
The goal of this integration is to close that gap — reducing duplicate work for your team, and turning app engagement into a signal you can actually use to understand and support students through the funnel.
What's built so far
We're starting with the foundation: a reliable, authenticated data bridge between Slate and Guidebook. The first phase of the integration pulls select fields from a user's Slate profile — things like their name, major, or assigned group — into their Guidebook in-app profile, so students see relevant, personalized information as soon as they open your guide.
This means students (prospective or current) can log in to the Guidebook app, with or without Single Sign-On (SSO), and we’ll pull in key data from their Slate record to personalize their Guidebook app experience.
What's coming next
With the foundation in place, we’re working on:
Event sync — Automatically syncing Slate event data and registrants into a Guidebook guide, so your team isn't managing the same event in two places.
Personalized schedules — Using registration and session data from Slate to automatically build each user's personalized schedule in the app.
Data back to Slate — Sending engagement data from Guidebook — downloads, check-ins, schedule activity — back into Slate to enrich the student record and support outreach.
