Let new CSRs fail here first.

A scored angry-caller simulation, before they answer your phones.

You're on the call. Answer the way a new CSR would.

On the line:

Enter sends. Shift + Enter adds a line.

Typed practice. About 3 minutes. Watch the sky: it follows the caller's temper.

The scorecard

Graded on what they did. Vibes are worth zero.

Every call ends with a score out of 100, each skill marked as done or missed, and what the call would have cost.

25 Clear next step
Gave a concrete action and a real time.
20 Empathy
Named how they feel before solving anything.
20 Ownership
Took responsibility instead of passing the blame.
15 Stayed professional
No "calm down," no quoting policy, no blame.
10 Fair fix
Offered something fair after listening, not before.
10 Call saved
A hang-up costs 10 instead. Saving it in fewer replies adds a small bonus, capped at 100.

AI answers the easy calls. Your newest hire gets the angry ones.

Today they learn it live, during your busiest week, with a one-star review on the line. Give them somewhere cheaper to be bad at it.

  1. Ready before the rush. Office staff turn over, and new hires hit the phones during the worst weeks of the year. Give them reps first.
  2. The calls AI hands off. An AI receptionist can book a tune-up. It still passes the furious customer to your office.
  3. A scorecard for every CSR. Empathy, ownership, a clear next step and staying professional, scored on every call.

The thermostat

Every sentence moves the needle.

These are the actual rules our scripted caller runs on. "Calm down" costs more than a good apology earns, which is roughly how it goes in real life.

  • 84° Can be saved, with a real plan and a real time
  • 96° Every caller starts here
  • 108° They hang up

Heats them up

  • Swearing, or "whatever"Unprofessional+20°
  • "Calm down." "Our policy is…"Blame or brush-off+9°
  • "I'm so sorry." Again.Sorry twice, no plan+3°
  • "Let me check."Under five words+3°

Cools them down

  • "That's on us."Took ownership−7°
  • "That's so frustrating."Empathy−6°
  • "I'm crediting the charge."Concrete action−6°
  • "By 4pm today."Specific time−5°

  2. We turn them into scenarios. Same bill, same broken promise, same angry person.
  3. Up to 25 people practice. In a browser, typing. Each call takes about 3 minutes.
  4. You read the scorecards. Then you decide who is ready for the phones, and whether we continue.

Take the call
Is this voice?

Not yet. Today it is typed practice. Voice comes later.

Is the caller on this page real AI?

The label at the top of the call tells you which one you got: "Live AI customer" or "Scripted customer". The scripted one runs on the rules listed above.

How abusive do the callers get?

Blunt, loud and unfair, the way real escalations are. They are written never to insult anyone's accent, nationality or background.

Do you need our customer data?

No. Describe the calls that hurt, or send anonymized examples. Please don't send us real customer details.

What does my team need?

A browser and a keyboard. There is no signup to play the call on this page.

What if nobody uses it?

Full refund if fewer than half your team completes a practice call.
