Admissions assistant for families
An admissions chat that finds the nearest campus to a family and describes the area.
What it does
A chat page for families: an AI agent that finds your nearest campus to their home from your campus list and tells them what is around it.
In one sentence: When someone writes in its chat, let the AI agent answer.
Why it is useful
Families ask which campus is closest and what is around it. The chat answers at any hour and offers a visit.

The time it saves
Whenever someone writes in its chat. Doing the same work by hand takes about 5 minutes each time, so it saves about 25 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 2 blocks and 2 tools.
The flow, block by block
- ChatTrigger · ChatStarts the flow when someone writes in its chat: the chat window in the editor, or a chat page you can share or put on your website.
- Admissions assistantxMap AI · AI agentAn AI agent: for each incoming message it thinks, uses the blocks you link to its Tools port (data, xMap AI, lookups, your tables, other flows, apps), remembers the conversation and writes an answer in {{reply}}.
- Our campusesYour data · My dataA tool the AI agent uses when it needs itBrings in a table you uploaded or a list you saved on the My data page: your stores, customers, target accounts or sites.
- What is around itxMap data · Nearby placesA tool the AI agent uses when it needs itPlaces around a point from xMap’s own places database (300M+ places, refreshed every month): pick the types of place (more than 5,000, such as Restaurant, Cafe, Pharmacy, Hospital or Gas station, or a whole group of them) and how far to look.
Every block can be changed after you use the template: the city, the type of place, the score, where the results go.
