How a simulation works

01

Select your scenario

Choose from six high-stakes situations — each with a distinct AI counterpart persona.

02

Brief the War Room

Describe your situation in detail. The more context you provide, the sharper the simulation.

03

Engage in 8 rounds

The AI asks probing questions, challenges your positions, and adapts to your strategy in real time.

04

Receive live coaching

After each response, get instant feedback: what worked, what to watch, diplomacy score, and door status.

05

Review your debrief

Performance score, strengths, improvement areas, and round-by-round analysis of your simulation.

6

Scenario types — from board meetings to crisis management

8

Rounds per simulation — escalating pressure and complexity

Live coaching after every exchange you make

Adaptive

AI counterparts that react to your strategy

Six high-stakes scenarios

Choose your arena

Board Meeting

Present and defend critical proposals to a skeptical board of directors. Face tough questions on financials, risk, and stakeholder impact.

CXO Interview

Face a realistic final-round interview panel. Behavioral, situational, and strategic questions calibrated to the C-suite.

JV & Mergers

Negotiate joint ventures, acquisitions, or merger terms. Valuation, control, IP rights, exit clauses — every lever is in play.

Salary Negotiation

Negotiate your compensation package — base, bonus, ESOP, and benefits. The AI plays a firm but fair compensation committee.

Role Negotiation

Negotiate scope, reporting lines, P&L ownership, and mandate terms. Secure what you need without burning bridges.

Crisis Management

Navigate a corporate crisis with media, board, employees, and regulators. Multiple stakeholder personas, escalating pressure.

Real-time coaching intelligence

Every response you give is evaluated across multiple dimensions. The coaching sidebar updates live with a verdict, specific suggestions, and tactical alternatives.

Verdict scoring: Excellent, Strong, Needs Work, or Weak
Diplomacy meter: tracks your tone from aggressive to diplomatic
Door status: monitors whether negotiation leverage is open, narrowing, or closing
Tension gauge: measures the intensity of each exchange
Specific alternative phrasing when your response falls short

FAQ

Common questions

How realistic are the AI counterparts?
The AI adopts detailed personas — board chairs, interview panels, negotiating teams — with industry-calibrated behaviors. It pushes back, stalls, challenges assumptions, and adapts to your strategy.
Can I use voice input?
Yes — the War Room supports browser-native speech-to-text. Click the microphone button to speak your responses. Text input is always available as a fallback.
How many rounds per simulation?
Each simulation runs for 8 rounds with escalating complexity. The final round includes a wrap-up assessment.
Is my simulation data stored?
Simulation transcripts are stored securely in your portal account for review. You can re-read past sessions and track improvement over time.
Can I customize the scenario?
Absolutely. The briefing phase lets you describe your exact situation — specific company names, deal terms, board dynamics — so the AI tailors its counterpart behavior precisely.
