Tech Assessment Platform Codesignal, which INt toduced a learning platform for technical topics with AI helpers last yearhas launched soft agile courses on its platform today to practice different professional skills and work-life scenes.
The company believes that historically, only the highest brass of various organizations could afford to hire an expensive executive coach for cleverly in areas of leadership and communication. Using different AI models, Codesignal created practice and learning to make the skills and knowledge of a coach available to the masses.
Tigran Solyan, CEO of Codesignal said companies hire non-technical people in large numbers. So, it saw the opportunity to train these people in various parts of their professional life.
“With the progression of generative AI, we have seen the opportunity to unlock a whole new world of soft skills, including leading training, sales training and learning of negotiating tactics. We believe that practical training is the best way to learn skill, and therefore after Introducing technical training, we look at this new area, “Tigran Solyan, Cedar Director of Codesignal, told Techcrunch about a call.
Codesignal has launched more than 100 courses on its platform, with topics covering areas how to effectively arrange one-on-one meetings, strategic leadership assessment, behavioral profile assessment, sales skill and improve public speech.
Users can choose any of these courses or request the AI assistant to find them and start practicing different scenarios as you description. You can use a voice to talk to the AI character in the simulation. The company has developed its own vocal stack for this instead of using an off-brief solution as Elevenlabs’s conversational agent platform, as it was thought to develop the solution in the house to save costs in the long run. Once your conversation is over, the AI assistant guides that you give you tips on your chat, and help you with improvement areas.

When people complete practices and courses successfully, they progress at different levels of expertise in that skill, which is marked by development, intermediate, advanced and experienced markers.
Codesignal also has corporate plans, where it draws specific courses for a company using its knowledge base and cultural values. Solyan said that in customized courses, companies can also choose the AI character to have different personalities to help professionals practice different real life situations.
However, there is a question of baking in cultural sensitivity on the basis of a place and company culture. If this is not baked in the courses, they could create an unpleasant experience for employees.
Sumit Singla, an Indian HR counselor, said AI might suggest to be assertive in some cases, but in some places, this could be furrowed.
“AI could encourage” a radical candle “in feedback, but in cultures where indirect communication is preferred, this could be counterpart.
He believes that AI could be useful for practicing some skills in a low -pressure environment. However, it is possible that the tool may not have emotional intelligence or contextual awareness in some cases.
“In training, one of the things we do is called” reading the room. “AI will not be able to adapt to different personality types, work environments or leadership styles. Mild capable development is very personalized, and AI may not always give contextual advice,” Singla noted.
Solyan said that when the company works with different clients, it tries to bake in many cultural and personality contexts in the experiences, but he acknowledged that it was an iterative process. He said Codesignal is also building cultural patterns when it begins to operate in various locations and regions.
Codesignal is primarily collaborating with users on its website, and the company plans to launch iOS and Android programs later this year to expand its reach.
The start -up, supported by Menlo Ventures and Index VenturesIt is not the only one using AI to learn soft skills. Microsoft LinkedIn also experimented with using AI operator Tools for courses in this segment.
