Build a CRM for Your Coding Bootcamp's Admissions with AI
A bootcamp CRM is an admissions pipeline tied to start dates: every applicant belongs to a cohort and moves from applied to enrolled. Describe your stages and Mythex builds the CRM with a kanban board, follow-ups and a database you own, so applications stop living across a form, a sheet and an inbox.
Who it's for
Admissions teams and founders at coding bootcamps who fill several cohorts a year and lose track of who is at pre-work, who is waiting on an interview and who went quiet after an offer.
What you can build
- Stages: applied, pre-work, interview, offer, deposit, enrolled
- Cohort and track on every applicant, with deferral to a later start
- Lead source per applicant to judge which channels fill cohorts
- A drop-out reason field for anyone who leaves the funnel
- Hiring partner companies linked to the graduates they interviewed
- A due-today list of follow-ups
Why a bootcamp CRM is different from a sales CRM
A sales CRM tracks deals; a bootcamp tracks people against a date. Every applicant is aiming for a specific cohort, and that cohort has a deadline and a seat count. Your board should filter by cohort, show seats left, and make deferrals easy, because a strong applicant who cannot start in March is still worth keeping for June. Count per stage per cohort and you can see weeks ahead whether a start date will fill.
- Filter the board by cohort start date
- Seats left per cohort on the board
- Deferral moves an applicant to a later cohort, keeping history
Track why people leave, not just that they did
Add a required reason whenever someone drops out of the pipeline: pre-work too heavy, chose another bootcamp, could not pay, timing. After one or two cohorts the pattern is clear. Many stalls at pre-work suggest the pre-work is badly timed; silence after an offer usually means financing, which you can address on the website and in the offer email.
Hiring partners in the same app
Graduate outcomes sell the next cohort, and they depend on hiring partners. Keep companies as a second record type with contacts, roles they hire for and the stack they use, and link each graduate to the companies they interviewed with. Before demo day, the list of partners hiring for front-end roles is one filter away.
- Company, contact, roles hiring and stack
- Interviews and hires linked to graduates
What to put in first
Import your current applicants from the spreadsheet with name, email, cohort and stage, then connect the website's apply form so new applications arrive as records. Add a follow-up date to everyone not yet enrolled. Hiring partners and lead source reports can come after the first cohort runs through it.
A prompt to start from
Build an admissions CRM for my coding bootcamp. Applicants have name, email, cohort, track, lead source and stage (applied, pre-work, interview, offer, deposit, enrolled), plus a drop-out reason; show a kanban board filtered by cohort with seats left, a due-today follow-up list, CSV import, and a second record type for hiring partner companies linked to graduates. Add login for the admissions team.
Questions
Can I import the applicants I already have?
Yes. Export your spreadsheet as a CSV and ask for an import. Mythex maps the columns, including cohort and stage, and lists any rows it could not read.
Can new applications from my website go straight into the CRM?
Yes. If the apply form is built in Mythex, it saves to the same database and each application appears in the first stage with its cohort.
Can the whole admissions team use it?
Yes. Ask for user accounts and roles, and each person signs in to the published app. You do not pay per seat for the app you build.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You describe the stages and fields in plain language and Mythex builds it with a live preview. You can still open the code editor if you want to look.
How much does it cost?
There is a Free plan with daily credits, enough to build and publish a first version. Pro is $25/month with more credits, code editing, GitHub export and custom domains.
