How Penji Came to Be

The Penji founders, studying Computer Science and Aerospace at UC Davis, found peers to be the ultimate resource. This inspired the Penji mission - to deliver personalized help to any student who needs it. And after a long and bumpy road, Penji has found the path to making this happen at scale.

A seamless student experience

Support is now a tap away! Our mobile app drives a smooth and efficient scheduling experience. Browse providers, schedule sessions, and meet online or in-person, spanning tutoring, mentoring, and advising.

For Students

Saving program administrators' time

Admins are overloaded with work. Penji automates the mundane parts of your job - you'll see most sessions going off automatically, without a hitch, and be able to monitor activity in your real-time data dashboard.
