Clinical communication intelligence
Clinical simulation for better patient conversations.
Clinicians, staff, and trainees practice out loud with AI patients. Each clinical simulation shows what they did well and what to practice next against your standard, with their own words behind each score. Leaders can review patterns across a cohort or unit.
29 academic medical centers and children's hospitals are piloting ClinicalSim.

Health systems
Practice patient experience, consent and disclosure, and team conversations against your institution's own standards. Leaders review cohort or unit patterns alongside your existing healthcare simulation program.
Medical education
Give residents, fellows, and medical students repeatable communication practice between scheduled SP encounters. Add simulation training to your medical simulation curriculum, faculty development, or remediation plan.
Useful feedback for each person. A clearer view for the program.
Participants see what they did well and what to practice next. Every score points to their own words in the simulated conversation.

What leaders can review
Patterns across a cohort or anonymous unit, scored against the standard your team already teaches. Use that review to choose the next round of practice.
What one health system learned
In one health system pilot, participants consistently opened conversations well. The report identified three elements to reinforce at the close: thanking the patient for raising a concern, reflecting the concern back, and summarizing the plan. Leaders could see those patterns in the transcripts and use the same cases for focused practice.
These are findings from simulated practice. Formative scores stay out of personnel files.

"It was helpful to have time to think and reflect without feeling the pressure of a person across from you expecting a response."

Step 1
Choose the priority
Tell us which conversation your team wants to practice. We'll review your standard or help you choose a published framework.
Step 2
Agree on the assessment
Choose the participating group, cases, and access rules together. Each person practices in their browser and gets feedback.
Step 3
Review and practice again
Participants use their feedback for the next attempt. Leaders review group patterns and choose the next practice focus.
