We help institutions stay connected with their alumni
Alumni Connect was founded on a simple belief — alumni offices deserve modern tools, and alumni deserve to feel remembered.
Our story
Born inside an alumni office, not a boardroom
Our founders kept losing touch with friends after graduation — and watched their schools lose touch with thousands of alumni every year. The tools alumni offices had access to were either clunky CRMs or dusty Excel sheets. So we built something purpose-made.
A decade later, Alumni Connect powers reunions, fundraising and mentorship at thousands of institutions on six continents — and every feature still starts with a real conversation with a real alumni officer.
We started Alumni Connect after our own alma maters lost touch with us. Built the first version for one campus.
Crossed 100 customer campuses with a fully self-serve onboarding flow.
Multi-currency donations across MYR, SGD and USD shipped — universities across 60 countries came aboard.
Highest-rated alumni platform on Capterra. Adopted by 4 of the top 10 Malaysian universities and global peer institutions.
Launched no-code workflow builder + the full REST API — alumni offices automate everything that used to need a developer.

How we operate
Things we will always be true to
We are not chasing the loudest exit. We are building software alumni offices can rely on for decades — which means making some permanent commitments out loud.
- We measure success by retention of customer institutions, not new logos.
- We never sell or share alumni data. Ever. It is not a revenue line.
- We treat institutional admins as the experts. Our job is to make their decisions cheaper.
- We invest in long-term API stability so your integrations don't break.
“Building an alumni platform isn't a technology project. It's a stewardship project. Every record we touch belongs to someone who loved their school enough to give it part of their life.”
