When time runs out
The critical employee meeting is today.
Performance issues, repeated tardiness, or the termination you need to initiate. The meeting is in 2 hours, and you’re mentally rehearsing how defensively or emotionally your employee will react. You know that the first sentence is crucial – but how do you practice that when no one has the time?
The important pitch is this afternoon.
The customer is skeptical, price-sensitive, and has had bad experiences. You know the critical objections – but how do you respond under pressure? YouTube videos are not helpful; they are too general. You need practice with THIS specific customer – and you need it now.
The escalated customer will call back shortly.
Called three times, problem unresolved, now really frustrated. You know it’s going to be challenging. How do you de-escalate? How do you show understanding without justifying yourself? How do you offer a solution without it sounding like an excuse? In one hour, you'll know.
The job interview is tomorrow morning.
The one question you dread: salary, gap in your resume, reason for changing jobs. Your partner can't help; they don't understand the context. Friends are unavailable. You stand alone before the interview – in 12 hours.
Your 30-Minute Last-Minute Plan
Why it works in 30 minutes
Your situation, not just any example.
"My employee has been coming in late for weeks; I've already addressed it twice, and now it's time for a frank conversation." – That's enough. The AI creates a character that reacts just like your actual employee: defensively, with excuses, perhaps emotionally. It's not a generic "difficult employee" scenario, but YOUR case. It works equally well for sales conversations ("Customer is very price-sensitive, has had bad experiences with service providers"), support inquiries ("Customer has called three times, issue unresolved, now very frustrated"), or interviews ("Startup founder, very direct, asks uncomfortable questions about salary expectations").
2-3 sentences are enough for a customized scenario.
AI recognizes: conversation type, difficulty, emotional context.
Character reacts like your real counterpart.

A single run shows you the way.
You don't need to practice ten times. Just one run gives you: a feel for the flow of the conversation, experience with possible reactions, a tested opening, and the knowledge that you've "survived" it once before – even if only in simulation. Imagine this: your employee says, "You're mistaken." Your customer says, "That's way too expensive." The support customer raises their voice. The interviewer asks about your last failure. When you experience these moments for the first time in a real conversation, you feel the pressure. Once you've practiced them, you already know: this is how it could go, and this is how I will respond.
15 minutes per cycle – that's all you need.
Test your entry: does it work or not?
Experience the challenging reaction in advance, not live for the first time.
Immediate feedback instead of pondering
After the session, you'll immediately know: What went well? Where could you have reacted differently? The AI provides you with specific alternatives: "Instead of saying 'This can't go on,' you could say: 'I've noticed that...'" or "When faced with price objections: Ask about the budget range before offering a discount" or "For escalated customers: First show understanding, then propose a solution." No guessing about what you could improve – just clear, actionable suggestions for enhancement.
Feedback within 30 seconds after the conversation.
Concrete phrasing alternatives for your situation.
Focus on what matters – no lengthy reports.
Works for those last-minute situations.
Better to be prepared for 30 minutes than not at all.
Practice with realistic personalities
Every employee is different – and reacts differently to feedback. Our AI characters are based on the Myers-Briggs model and simulate realistic conversation dynamics: from the insecure junior employee to the critical senior developer.
