Consulting

UCLA’s Premier Student-Run Data Strategy Organization

Our Services

We partner with startups, nonprofits, labs, and companies to transform raw data into clear, actionable insights. Our interdisciplinary teams combine technical depth and business intuition to drive real-world impact.

📊 Data Analysis

We dive into raw datasets to uncover trends, patterns, and actionable insights. For Achievable, we analyzed student usage data to identify which actions were most strongly correlated with learning outcomes.

🧠 Predictive Modeling & Machine Learning

We design and train machine learning models for forecasting, segmentation, and classification. For Jazz Hands for Autism, we built an optimization model to match students to ideal class schedules based on performance data, preferences, and instructor availability.

🛠️ Data Engineering & Infrastructure

We build scalable backend systems to collect, store, and query data effectively. For Orsulic Lab, we created a database-backed platform that connects front-end and back-end workflows, streamlining operations for medical research.

🌐 Web & Product Analytics

We analyze user journeys, optimize conversion funnels, and run A/B tests to boost engagement. With Kickback, we examined Shopify user data to pinpoint where shoppers were dropping off and set up experiments to test improvements.

📈 Business Strategy & Insights

We combine data with competitive and market research to guide product, growth, and operations. For UCLA Housing/BruinShack, we scraped housing listings and analyzed survey data to inform strategies for improving off-campus student housing discovery.

🗣️ Natural Language Processing (NLP)

We use NLP to extract insights from text, power AI tools, and automate workflows. With Zeitios, we’re building an AI tutor that helps students learn software tools, combining curriculum generation with NLP-powered dialogue.
