Practice the conversations that matter most.
ClinicalSim is a voice-based AI clinical simulation platform to practice and measure clinical communication — structured practice with real-time feedback, mapped to ACGME ICS Milestones 2.0, across undergraduate medical education, residency and fellowship, remediation, and faculty development.
Communication is the hardest competency to teach, train, and measure.
It's a clinical procedure — the one clinicians perform most often and practice least. Yet unlike every other procedure, there's no scalable way to rehearse it, score it, or document improvement.

Literature review
When Step 2 CS was discontinued in 2021, programs lost the only national standardized assessment of clinical communication skills. ACGME Milestones 2.0 created universal ICS requirements — but most programs have no scalable way to assess or remediate communication competency. The result: 29-45 faculty hours consumed per remediation case, with no standardized tools, inconsistent documentation, and learners who need the most practice getting the fewest repetitions.
Structured practice that changes clinical communication.
You wouldn't teach a procedure without a sim lab. Communication deserves the same rigor. ClinicalSim provides structured, repeatable practice for the conversations that matter most — breaking bad news, navigating angry patients, conducting informed consent, leading goals-of-care discussions — for learners and the faculty who teach them.

Communication is teachable, measurable, and improvable.
Training programs across the country are already practicing on a system mapped to their milestones — instead of rebuilding the infrastructure from scratch every time.
