Our Mission

Education has never been more important, but as traditional career paths shift, choosing the right direction has become increasingly complex.

Today’s students face a world of:

  • Rising costs
  • Rapid technological change
  • Changing job landscape

At the same time, organizations invest billions of dollars each year in scholarships, internships, research, and training, often without an efficient way to reach the students who need them most.

TUN exists to close that gap.

Our mission is to reduce friction between opportunity and access, so students can make informed decisions and organizations can create impact that lasts.

What We Do

TUN operates an AI-powered platform that connects students with:

  • Scholarships
  • Internships
  • Online courses and micro-learning
  • Student discounts
  • University research and institutional achievements

Behind the scenes, we provide organizations with:

  • Structured upload and management tools
  • Trusted publishing and verification
  • Continuous updates and optimization
  • Distribution through search, AI, and content
  • Clear reporting and insight

Everything runs on shared infrastructure designed for accuracy, trust, and scale.

How We’re Different

TUN is not just a content site or a job board. We help students navigate scholarships, internships, courses, and emerging career paths. TUN provides the systems organizations use to create, manage, and share those opportunities at scale.

We have built an infrastructure for opportunity.

The future of education is not just about degrees. It’s about:

  • Navigation
  • Retraining
  • Lifelong learning
  • Early access to opportunity

TUN has built the systems that help students and institutions adapt together.

TUN AI – the First of Its Kind!

TUN AI is an ethical personalized coach for students, parents, and educators.

TUN AI is better than generic Large Language Models (LLMs) for students because it shares current vetted data within an ethical framework.

What makes TUN AI different:

  • 20+ specialized AI models for scholarships, financial aid, academics, majors, internships, and careers
  • Proactive agentic support, including reminders and opportunity monitoring
  • Personalized dashboards and recommendations tailored to each student’s goals
  • Always-on assistance that continues working for students even when they’re offline
  • Ethical guardrails and domain expertise built specifically for education

Students can try TUN AI instantly in chat mode without an account, and unlock the full agentic experience by creating a free profile.

Launched initially in 2017 to help students find scholarships, TUN AI has evolved through more than 200 iterations into the AI platform it is today.

With student debt soaring and inflation squeezing families, we help students access scholarships, reduce costs, and earn income while building real-world experience.

Scholarships

TUN helps students find scholarships to pay for their higher education journey. TUN also helps companies create, manage, and promote paths for students through scholarships.

Student Discounts

TUN helps students save with big brands online and at local businesses on textbooks, food, entertainment, beauty, fitness, and much more.

Internships

TUN helps students find internships, part-time jobs, and volunteering opportunities, which are often the gateway to a valuable career.

Research Matters!

Tomorrow’s problems are being solved by university researchers today!

TUN works closely with universities and research institutions to:

  • Share research developments
  • Publish institutional announcements
  • Translate complex work into student-relevant insights

We believe research and innovation matter most when people can understand why they matter.

By highlighting breakthroughs in areas such as artificial intelligence, health, sustainability, and science, TUN helps translate complex academic work into clear, student-relevant insights.

This approach strengthens the connection between universities and students, reinforces the value of research, and helps students understand why these discoveries matter.

Learning for a Changing World

TUN’s course engine helps students discover and understand online courses without the noise of traditional marketplaces.

Combined with TUN AI, the course engine is designed to reduce confusion, provide context, and help learners decide what to explore next.

As technology reshapes education and work, understanding matters as much as credentials.

That’s why TUN also develops:

  • POWER Courses — short, free micro-courses that provide fast orientation to a topic
  • MVP Learning — a framework focused on minimum viable proficiency: the core concepts, mental models, and constraints that help people think clearly before going deeper

Our goal is not to overwhelm learners, but to restore clarity, confidence, and agency.
