about the project

Create one clear route through Canadian program information without presenting research as advice or eligibility as a promise. The product needed to support broad exploration, precise comparison and direct verification against official sources.

Live beta; user testing in progress as of August 2026

delivered

The live beta includes national program search, a Canadian school directory, structured filters and sorting, domestic and international tuition views, DLI and PGWP labels, saved items, three-program comparison, member-only details and a public data-coverage methodology.

result

The observable result is a live study-planning platform covering all 13 provinces and territories. Its August 22, 2026 coverage report lists 20,827 program and credential routes and 1,220 institutions and delivery providers. These are catalog-coverage figures, not adoption or student-outcome metrics.

01 / Frame

Make a high-stakes search easier to reason about.

Students are rarely comparing programs on one dimension. Cost, location, prior education, credential type and post-study conditions interact. exooda brings those questions into one structured search while keeping the final decision with the student.

decision system

make a high-stakes search easier without hiding uncertainty.

The product turns thousands of differently structured institutional records into one path: discover broadly, compare like with like, inspect the evidence and verify before applying.

  1. 01

    Search

    Begin with a program, school, subject, career, skill or city—not a policy vocabulary.

  2. 02

    Compare

    Make cost, credential, location, student type and admission background comparable.

  3. 03

    Read evidence

    Keep status, review date and source close to every decision-critical fact.

  4. 04

    Verify

    Send the final check back to the institution or Government of Canada before applying.

decision 01

make unlike records comparable.

Institutions publish different combinations of price, duration, credential and eligibility information. A shared record structure lets students compare the same dimensions without pretending every source is equally complete.

decision 02

show uncertainty instead of hiding it.

Published, estimated, conditional and unverified are different states. Tuition basis, PGWP assessment and review date remain visible so a useful summary never turns into an unsupported promise.

program evidence

put decision-critical facts in one view.

DLI and PGWP labels are carefully qualified. exooda is independent, provides information rather than immigration advice, and asks students to confirm details with official sources.

beta boundary

document the gap, then make it part of the roadmap.

The verified narrow viewport still exposes horizontal clipping in the current hero and search surface. Showing it here keeps responsive refinement visible as a live product obligation instead of polishing the evidence into a claim the beta cannot yet support.

what testing changed

finding the first fact was quick. the next need was depth.

People found tuition, fees and other essential information quickly, reported high satisfaction and completed the primary lookup independently. Their clearest request was a richer signed-in layer—especially scholarships and core or program-specific admission requirements.

Directional feedback supplied by the designer; sample size, exact percentages and task timings were not provided. Scholarship information is a research-led direction, not a currently verified live feature.

Evidence and limitations

Exooda is an independent information service—not an institution, IRCC affiliate or source of immigration advice. Rules, fees and admission requirements change and should be confirmed with official sources. The beta has authenticated users, but no aggregate adoption or conversion claim is made.
