AI Practice Labs
Practice the moments that decide whether your team trusts AI.
40 stakeholder simulators across 7 delivery roles. The AI plays a specific person with a specific agenda. You handle the conversation. When you’re done, our rubric grader scores you against the success criteria — evidence, not attendance.
Stakeholder personas with hidden agendas End-of-session rubric grade Replay until you nail it
Pick a moment that matters
A Sales VP demanding a chatbot by EOQ. A CFO killing your AI bet at month 3. A senior engineer threatening to leave for an AI-native startup. Each roleplay is a specific person, voice, and stake.
Hold the conversation
The AI stakeholder pushes back. Doesn't volunteer hidden requirements. Forces you to extract, reframe, and decide. No multiple-choice. No safe-house feedback. Just the moment.
Get a rubric grade
At the end of the session, we score your replies against the success criteria. You see exactly what worked, what to improve, and the single most leveraged thing to practice next.
The catalog
40 roleplays.
Choose by role.
Each scenario takes 8–15 minutes. Grading runs at the end. You can replay any roleplay — different choices produce a different conversation.
