Taking Skills Accreditation to the Next Level: Introducing AI Tutor

January 28, 2025

3 min read

At Yoodli, we’re launching something that feels like a long time coming—AI Roleplays. These allow learners to simulate real-world conversations—sales pitches, performance reviews, public speaking—and receive private, real-time feedback. This marks a significant step forward in how organizations can scale and personalize training.

Now, we’re taking it a step further with AI Tutor.

This new dialogue-based skills check builds on the foundation of AI Roleplays, helping learners become subject matter experts before diving into conversational practice. Think of it as the perfect precursor to conversational roleplays—a way to solidify knowledge, receive real-time feedback, and develop confidence in tackling complex topics.

What is AI Tutor?

AI Tutor transforms traditional written quizzes into dynamic, conversational learning experiences. Instead of answering multiple-choice questions, learners engage in a dialogue:

  • AI Tutor asks a question (e.g., “How would you apply value selling to this client’s challenge?”).
  • The learner responds.
  • AI Tutor follows up, probing deeper into the learner’s thought process.

At the end of the session, learners receive a detailed report with an overall score and feedback for each question. This isn’t just about testing knowledge—it’s about sharpening it in real-time.

Who benefits from AI Tutor?

AI Tutor has applications across industries and roles, making it an invaluable tool for:

Go-to-Market (GTM) Teams:

  • Account Planning: Sellers can “talk through” their strategy for a specific account—articulating the client’s business needs, objectives, and potential pain points.
  • Technical Product Sales: For sellers navigating complex, technical products, the Tutor ensures they can explain features, benefits, and use cases without needing a sales engineer or solutions architect on the first call.

Manager Training: AI Tutor offers managers a judgment-free space to practice tough conversations and refine communication with instant feedback.

Public Speaking and Executive Presence: Learners can workshop presentations, test key messages, and experiment with delivery styles to ensure their content resonates.

Sales Credentialing: Organizations can scale sales enablement with dynamic roleplays, replacing static quizzes to build seller confidence and reinforce strategies.

"When we aim to develop knowledge and skills, we can’t rely solely on exposing people to new information. True learning occurs only when individuals retrieve that information from memory, elaborate on it, and engage in realistic practice with feedback. Facilitating this process has notoriously been challenging for any L&D or Enablement team, which holds teams back from driving change and impact. Yoodli’s AI Tutor is finally helping us deliver this at scale."

Nick Lawrence (Global Sales Enablement Manager at Databricks)

Why AI Tutor Matters

Confidence Drives Performance: Reps who are confident in their knowledge close deals faster. Managers who communicate effectively build stronger teams. Speakers who practice delivering compelling messages inspire action. AI Tutor accelerates all of this by turning passive learning into active engagement.

Learning, Personalized and Scalable: Traditional training methods don’t adapt to individual learners. AI Tutor does. Whether it’s pinpointing a specific knowledge gap or offering tailored follow-up questions, this tool ensures every learner gets the support they need.

• Empowering Teams at Every Level: Bringing in subject-matter experts or scheduling live coaching sessions isn’t always practical. AI Tutor scales that expertise, offering instant, accessible feedback whenever it’s needed.

The Big Picture

AI Tutor isn’t here to replace traditional training—it’s here to enhance it. Like AI Roleplays, it augments what managers, coaches, and enablement teams are already doing, making their efforts more impactful and scalable.

As we build the AI Roleplays category, we’re excited about the possibilities:

Hyper-Personalized Learning Paths: AI Tutor can identify trends across teams, highlighting areas for improvement and tailoring content to individual needs.

Real-Time Practice in Workflow: Whether it’s inside a CRM, LMS, or directly integrated into daily tasks, learners can engage with AI Tutor wherever they are.

Breaking Down Barriers: From Fortune 500 companies to individual learners, AI Tutor makes high-quality training accessible to everyone.

Two-thirds of the world struggles with communication skills. With advancements like AI Tutor, we’re bringing the tools to overcome this challenge into more hands than ever before.
