Reaching out for an internship, a research spot, or advice on applying? Paste a name and Avian looks them up and writes a message they'll actually want to reply to.
What students use it for
“Your post on moving the checkout flow to edge functions is why I built my capstone the same way. Is your team hiring summer interns?”
“Your 2025 paper on sparse attention left one question open that I think my coursework project touches. Could I send you a two-line summary?”
“I saw you ran the robotics club before graduating. I'm applying to engineering this fall and would love 10 minutes on what the program is really like.”
Why it works
With Avian
“Your folding benchmark helped my class project, and I have one question about the validation split. I'd also love to help in the lab this spring.”
Specific, short, and clearly written to one person.
How it works
A name, a LinkedIn link, a lab page, an email. Whatever you have.
It searches the public web and pulls out what they work on and care about, in about a minute.
Short, warm, or specific. Edit it so it sounds like you, then send it from Gmail.

FAQ
You start free: 500 credits on signup, enough for 5 flights (one flight is one person researched, with 3 drafts). No credit card. If you need more, Pro is $8/month, or $5.33/month billed annually, and Max is $24/month, or $16/month billed annually.
It writes three drafts based on research about the person and what you tell it about yourself. You should read, edit, and make them yours before you send. Professors and recruiters can tell when nobody did.
Yes. Paste the professor's name, lab page, or Google Scholar link. Avian finds their recent work so you can reference something specific and ask a clear, small question.
Avian helps you reach out to people connected to a school: admissions reps, alumni, current students, coaches. It does not write your application essays.
Public pages on the web, such as their profile, publications, and posts. Avian does not read private accounts.
No. Nothing does. A specific, short, relevant message gets read far more often than a template, and that's what Avian is built to help you write.
