TL;DR

  • Less than 5% of alumni actively engage with their institution post-graduation. The problem is not the database - it is the absence of an outcome layer on top of it.
  • Match It Up sits alongside your existing CRM (Vaave, Almabase) and adds intent-based alumni matching, Brew Circles, and cross-batch professional discovery.
  • Alumni declare what they are building or seeking. The AI makes warm, curated introductions - not cold directory listings or inbox spam.
  • You get a real-time dashboard tracking introductions made, mentorship relationships formed, and collaboration partnerships closed.
  • No technical integration, no CRM migration, no long-term commitment. Start a 30-day pilot with 50 alumni. Full outcomes report included.

The Challenge

Your alumni network is one of your most valuable assets. Right now, it's largely untapped.

Less than 5%

of alumni actively engage with their institution post-graduation

Zero structured pathways

for alumni to discover each other's opportunities

Once a year

Alumni platform login frequency, usually before reunions

Batch silos

Alumni from 2010 and 2020 never meet despite shared interests

The solution isn't a new CRM. It's an outcome layer that sits on top of what you already have.

What is Match It Up?

An intent-based professional networking platform.

We match people based on what they're actively building, seeking, or offering — not just where they went to school.

Alumni Match Communities

Private, branded hubs for your alumni. Sub-groups by batch or interest.

Intent-Based Matching

Alumni declare what they're building or seeking. Our AI makes curated, purposeful introductions.

Brew Circles

Themed small-group conversations, structured, honest, with no pitching. Not a random networking event.

We Work Alongside Your CRM

We are not here to replace Vaave, Almabase, or any platform you already use.

Your Existing CRM

  • Alumni database & records
  • Event management
  • Fundraising & donations
  • Mentorship administration
  • Institutional analytics

Match It Up Adds

  • Intent-based matching & introductions
  • Cross-batch & cross-institution discovery
  • Live opportunity feed
  • Brew Circles (curated conversations)
  • Daily active engagement

Your CRM manages alumni records. MatchItUp makes those alumni actually connect, collaborate, and create value.
