Calliope Calliope is an innovative platform that automates the creation of personalized cold emails and messages, specifically designed to assist university students in reaching out to potential employers, research labs, and organizations. It was founded by Karan Chahal and Steven Luo, students from Western University, who recognized the challenges students face when applying for internships, co-ops, and research positions.
Overview Calliope was created to streamline the process of cold outreach, a common practice among students, especially those in business, engineering, and pre-medicine programs . The platform offers an efficient solution by automatically generating emails and messages tailored to the specific needs of students, helping them connect with potential employers or research supervisors.[1].
Key Features
Automated Email/Message Generation: Calliope uses a large language model (LLM) to generate personalized emails and messages. Users can input links to webpages, publications, LinkedIn profiles, and upload resumes. The platform "scrapes" these inputs for relevant information, which the LLM uses to draft an email or message that is unique and tailored to the recipient.
User-Friendly Interface: The platform saves user resumes and templates, making it easy to generate emails and messages quickly [2]. It also maintains a database of scraped data, enhancing the efficiency and quality of email and message generation [2].
Cost-Effective Plans: Plans offers three subscription plans—Academic ($5.99 CAD/year), Business ($7.99 CAD/year), and Deluxe ($14.99 CAD/year)[2] —making it accessible to its target demographic of university students [3].
Competitors While Calliope primarily competes with OpenAI's ChatGPT, it distinguishes itself by focusing exclusively on cold email and message generation. Unlike ChatGPT, which serves a broader range of applications, Calliope is specifically optimized for creating cold emails and messages, offering a more specialized and streamlined service. Additionally, Calliope is priced lower than ChatGPT's subscription model, making it more affordable for students [4]
Founders Karan Chahal and Steven Luo, the founders of Calliope, are students at Western University [5]. They identified a gap [1] in the market for automated cold email and message generation and developed Calliope to address this need.
Reception and Future Plans Since its launch, Calliope has been well-received for its innovative approach to solving a common problem faced by students.[2]. The platform aims to expand its user base and continue refining its technology to offer even more personalized and effective cold outreach services [2]
