Live practice · An AI that pushes back
Rehearse plays the person you're dreading — their words, their pushback, their silences — then scores exactly where you lost ground. The real conversation becomes your second take, not your first.

The cost of avoidance
“The raise you haven't asked for”
Not sent
You know you're underpaid. You've been underpaid for a year. Every time you're about to bring it up, you find a reason to wait — the next review cycle, after the project, when things settle down. Things don't settle down. The raise doesn't happen. The resentment compounds.
“The relationship that's already over”
Not sent
You've had the conversation in your head a hundred times. It always goes cleanly — you both understand, no drama. In real life, you apologize, qualify, backtrack, and leave with nothing resolved. The version in your head never gets tested against someone who pushes back.
“The confrontation you're absorbing”
Not sent
Your colleague takes credit. Your manager dumps work on you. Your roommate ignores the dishes. You tell yourself it's not worth it. But it's been worth it for months — you just don't know how to start without it going badly. So you say nothing. Again.
The problem isn't courage. You know exactly what you want to say — you've rehearsed it a hundred times in your head. The problem is you've never said it to someone who actually pushes back. That's the only training that transfers to the real thing. That's what Rehearse is.
How it works
Step 1
Pick from 18 high-stakes conversations — or describe your own. The raise. The breakup. The confrontation. The one you've been putting off.
Step 2
Name them. Describe how they react under pressure. Give us anything that matters about your dynamic. Three fields. One minute.
Step 3
The AI becomes them — pushes back the way they would, holds their position, and doesn't soften. This is where you find out what you actually say under pressure.
Step 4
A readiness score from 1 to 10. The exact lines that landed and the ones that didn't. One thing to change. Run it again. Watch the number move.
The debrief
Every session ends with a score — not a participation ribbon. The notes mark the exact line where you lost ground, why it happened, and what to say instead. Most people run the same conversation twice. The score goes up.
Readiness
7/10
Almost ready
You found your footing and named a number. One pattern held you back.
Landed
“I've been here three years and I've never asked for anything.”
Reframed the ask as earned, not demanded. It pre-answers the "why now" objection before a defensive manager can raise it.
Lost ground
“I know the timing is probably tough right now.”
You said this before she raised timing. You pre-surrendered — never validate an objection before it exists.
One thing to change
Stop pre-surrendering. Make the ask. Then wait. Let the silence do the work.
After the real conversation
“The first session was rough. I apologized before she even said anything. Ran it four more times over two nights. The real conversation still felt nerve-racking — but I'd already heard every version of 'the timing isn't great' and I had an answer for each one. Got about 80% of what I asked for. That's more than zero, which is what I'd gotten every time before.”
“A client suggested I try it, which I found slightly embarrassing as someone who coaches communication for a living. Used it to prep for a hard conversation with a long-term client I needed to let go. First run I scored a 6. By the third I understood exactly what I was avoiding saying. Had the real conversation that week.”
“I needed to tell my mom I wasn't moving back home after grad school. I'd been 'about to' for six months. I put her in the setup — her guilt-tripping, the specific things she'd say — and yeah, it was a little surreal. The real call went badly in places. But I said what I needed to say and I didn't take it back. That was new.”

Questions
The AI maintains character throughout the session — it pushes back the way a real person in that situation would, gets defensive when challenged, and shifts emotionally as the conversation develops. Most users describe the first session as uncannily close to the real thing.
Text mode is available now. Voice mode is in development — it will let you practice with full spoken dialogue, hands-free. Sign up and we'll notify you when it ships.
Your sessions are private to your account. We don't share your conversation content with anyone. Session data is used only to generate your debrief and track your progress.
18 scenarios across Work (raise, job offer negotiation, quitting, workload pushback, critical feedback, job interview, performance review, difficult client), Personal (breakup, ending a friendship, limits with parents, money talks, sincere apology), and Life (landlord negotiation, dispute a charge, confront a roommate, negotiate a contractor, ask for a deadline extension). Plus custom AI-generated scenarios for your exact situation.
A readiness score (1–10), a one-line verdict, specific moments from your transcript that worked with explanations of why, moments that fell flat with coaching notes, an alternative opening you could have used, and one concrete thing to change in your next session.
Yes. Cancel any time from your settings — no friction, no loops. You keep full access until the end of your billing period, then move to the free plan; your existing session history and debriefs stay readable indefinitely.
