What it does
Practice under pressure, then a score
Learners speak with AI characters that listen, push back, and change state during the conversation. Each session produces a score, a timestamped transcript, and feedback tied to the scenario's objectives. Individuals can review their own results; organisations can use the same records in operations, learning and development, talent, and compliance programmes.
What it is not
Not a chatbot. Not a completion course.
Real Talk Studio is not a writing assistant, a general-purpose chatbot, or a therapy or medical tool. Completing a module is not the product; the score and transcript are. It does not replace live coaching or classroom programmes — organisations typically use it alongside them.
Team
A compact, AI-enabled organisation
Real Talk Studio is run by a small team with operating experience across the industries it serves. That is how a compact team designs, delivers, and supports enterprise programmes across regions.
Employee spotlight
The humans behind the product
Each month we spotlight someone from across the company. August is Adam — and, unofficially, the spaniel.
Software Engineer
Adam Salter
Adam works on the AI that powers our conversational roleplay platform. In particular he built the non-verbal feedback tooling — the systems that watch a live simulated conversation, catch the signals a transcript would miss, and turn them into structured feedback the learner can actually use.
If an avatar ever seems to notice you looking at the ceiling, that is Adam. The spaniel in this photo does not write code. We were tempted to list him as a co-author anyway.
