AI Simulations
An AI Simulation gives users a conversation in which to practise a professional situation. Define the person the AI will play, the situation, and the behaviours the participant should demonstrate. Frontierz uses those details to create a Private AI Fellow, so you can prepare a simulation without writing all its instructions from scratch.
Use this mode for sales practice, customer conversations, leadership rehearsal, feedback conversations, interviews, or any scenario where the user needs to practice out loud with a realistic counterpart.
Create an AI Simulation
Overview
Overview sets the simulation Title, Default language, optional Tags, visibility, and Info screen. When the language has regional options, Spoken accent or variety sits beside Default language, with the same choices and defaults as on an AI Fellow. Leave the title blank to use the generated name. New simulations stay Private until you change visibility.
Fellow Definition
Fellow Definition defines who the AI Fellow plays in the role-play. Admins set the simulated person's name, job title, company, seniority, company size, industry, avatar, and conversational stance. The stance controls how friendly, skeptical, or guarded the simulated person should be. Optional personality notes also live on this step.
Simulation Context
Simulation Context defines the situation. Admins choose the simulation type, relationship to the user, prior context, and decision stage. They can add talking points the simulated person should raise.
Examples include sales discovery, objection handling, negotiation, customer complaint, performance feedback, hiring interview, or executive briefing.
Objectives
Objectives define what the simulation is meant to assess. Admins choose the competency, evaluation method, and target duration. Success criteria are optional. When they are empty, feedback after the session generates criteria from the objective and context. A Generate feedback toggle is on by default. Turn it off when the role-play should not produce a coaching report.
Capabilities
Capabilities set the tools available during the simulation.
| Group | Toggles |
|---|---|
| Presence | Screen share, Camera |
| On screen | Text snippets, Interactive widgets, Image generation, Whiteboard |
| Session flow | Celebrations |
Turn on only the capabilities required for the simulation. Allow text chat remains a separate setting when the role-play needs typed practice. Full Admins can also attach Connectors from the company library.
Managers can change built-in capability toggles for AI Simulations assigned to them. Connectors already attached by a Full Admin appear as read-only.
After creation
New simulations are Private by default. Add users from the simulation's Manage Users page, or assign access from Access Management.
Once a simulation is Active, it can also be placed inside a Learning Path as a role-play step between sessions. See Add an AI Simulation between sessions.
To edit a simulation, select Edit Simulation on its monitoring page. The five creation sections appear as tabs and use Save Changes. Select a field in Preview to open its section. Overview shows Title beside Default language, followed by visibility, tags, and Info screen. During creation, Preview appears after Overview; use Continue between steps and Finalize to finish. New simulations keep Private visibility and a generated title until you change them. Configuration changes appear in Edit history.
With Generate feedback enabled, finishing a simulation produces a report with a summary, evidence against the criteria, strengths, improvements, and suggested next actions. The character does not announce a score during practice. Users see the report afterwards unless Settings limits access to Admins only.
Learning Path reports are saved to Progress Reports automatically. For a standalone simulation, the user selects Keep in Progress Reports to save it there; until then, it remains available with the AI Fellow. Administrators can open the same report from the conversation detail or the user's Learning Path detail. Discuss Feedback lets the user review it in a voice call with Your Fellow, without changing scores.
AI Simulations are practice tools. Use the assessment as coaching input, not as the sole basis for employment, certification, or compliance decisions.
