Long-form alumni profiles written from the interview itself: drafted for your magazine and website, with the full interview video alongside.
Video clips and posts formatted for LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook: real graduates in their own words, ready to schedule the day they arrive.
Impact narratives, video clips, and verbatim quotes packaged for donor presentations and board communications, with the source recording behind every word. And a live Proofolio page of cleared graduate stories you can hand to a president, a board, or a campaign: one link, every story on the record.
"Every story has multiple quotes pulled out, has a case study written, has a full transcript, has a full video. It's all there, and it happens almost immediately after an interview's done. It was a no-brainer to say that is the solution that we need to have a content library that the whole university can use."

We know the math your team is up against: one storyteller, thousands of alumni, and a calendar that can't hold a fraction of the interviews the stories deserve. That's the exact problem Proofolio was built to remove.
Western Governors University collects alumni stories through Proofolio today. The guided interview on WGU's own alumni page is ours, an institution with hundreds of thousands of graduates invites them to share their story through it, on their own domain, in front of their own community. You can go check; it's live.
The interview renders in your school's colors, on your site, click a color to see it. Consent is captured with a terms and conditions checkbox and in the video interview itself.
"It's only been about three months that we're actually all in collecting them, and we have over 100 stories that we're able to share throughout the university."

FROM THE RECORDED INTERVIEW →
Create your account and watch a guided interview run, your team sees the finished story it produces before you invite a single alumnus.
The interview lives on your own domain, in your brand. Invite a graduating cohort, a reunion class, or your whole alumni base, they answer whenever it suits them.
Stories arrive as editable drafts with the recording and transcript attached. Your team approves, publishes, and hands leadership the quotes that carry campaigns. Consent is a gate, not a checkbox, nothing about a graduate goes public until your team has cleared it.
Your team approves every word before anything is published · consent is captured inside every interview
AI made polished institutional copy free, which means "transforming lives through education" now persuades no one, because every institution publishes it. What a prospective student, a donor, or a board still believes is a graduate, on the record, in their own words: where they started, what almost stopped them, what the degree changed. That story can't be generated, and it can't be borrowed by a competing institution, because it only happened at yours.
Proofolio's guided interview walks each alumnus through that story the way a good features writer would: the before, the turning point, the after, and preserves it with the recording, the transcript, and the graduate's consent attached.
One interview becomes a magazine feature, a campaign post, a donor quote, and a recruitment story without a single meeting on anyone's calendar.
And when leadership asks where the proof of impact is, you answer with a link. Two paths from here: another season of stock photos and borrowed language, or a growing library of real graduate stories your whole institution publishes from.
