FAQ
GoodGoblin is purpose-built for college admissions. Unlike general AI tools, we're trained specifically on successful college applications, admissions criteria, and essay strategies. Our AI never writes essays for you—instead, it coaches you to develop your authentic voice while ensuring your applications are competitive. We also ensure full compliance with college AI usage policies.
Absolutely not. GoodGoblin functions like a digital tutor or counselor, providing guidance and feedback—not doing the work for you. Major universities have clarified that using AI for brainstorming, feedback, and editing assistance is acceptable. You remain the author of all your content; we simply help you improve it.
The free trial gives you full access to our platform including college matching, essay coaching, and application review features. You can explore how GoodGoblin works and see real value before committing.
Our acceptance probability model is trained on hundreds of thousands of real application outcomes. While no prediction is 100% accurate (admissions have inherent unpredictability), our model has shown 94% accuracy in predicting whether a student will be admitted to at least one of their reach schools. We continuously refine our model with new data each admissions cycle.
Yes! We offer a Parent Portal that gives you visibility into your student's application progress without being intrusive. You can see essay completion status, deadline tracking, and overall application health—all with student-granted access permissions that respect their independence.
Security is paramount. We're SOC 2 compliant, use bank-level encryption for all data, and never share or sell your information. Your essays and personal details are stored securely and only used to improve your experience. You can delete your data at any time.
We offer a 3-day free trial. If GoodGoblin doesn't meet your expectations, you can cancel at any time. We're confident in the value we provide, but want you to feel zero risk in trying us.
