Pick a ready-made customer personality, then add your policies and the moments that test your team most. You can create a scenario within 15 minutes.
Staff respond out loud, face to face, while their AI roleplay partner shows how they’re feeling, from worry to frustration, in their voice and body language.
The moment the session ends, AI coaching begins. Staff get a full debrief from their AI coach on where they connected and how they could improve, based on your service standards.
Scores and performance analytics show how each learner comes across, from their words to their tone and eye contact. We roll it up into teamwide data you can act upon.
Start a free 30-day trial and try the Handling a Difficult Guest scenario (and many more) today. Or book a demo to see one built around your own customers and the moments that matter most to your organization.
See a scenario built around your own customers and service standards. Get in touch and let us show you how our full roleplay training platform works.
Customer service empathy training teaches staff to understand how a customer feels and show it in what they say and do. It covers listening fully, naming the emotion, choosing words that sound human, and following through on what you promise. It matters most in hard moments, like a bereavement, a ruined trip, or a money worry, because customers remember how they were treated.
Empathy is hard to learn from a slide deck, and roleplay with a colleague rarely feels real. With UneeQ, staff practice face to face with a digital human customer who shows real emotion, so they learn to read the moment and respond with care. They can rehearse the toughest conversations as often as they need. It’s part of our wider customer service training.
Yes. Add your policies, your service standards, and the moments your customers find hardest, like a bereavement or a declined loan. You can create a scenario within 15 minutes. After each session, AI coaching gives feedback against your own standards, so every staff member knows what good looks like.
Each session is scored on the soft skills behind empathy: active listening, acknowledging emotion, clear communication, and staying patient. Performance analytics adds emotional intelligence indicators, like tone of voice, eye contact, and body language, so you see how staff came across as well as what they said. Team leaders can spot who handles sensitive moments well and who needs more practice.
Yes. Empathy training fits any team that meets customers at emotional moments. In healthcare, staff practice talking with worried patients and their families. In financial services, they practice bereavement and hardship conversations. Hospitality teams practice making things right when a special trip goes wrong.
Immersive Training Platform is priced per seat, per month, with all features included. You can start a free 30-day trial and try the ready-made Handling a Difficult Guest scenario, or book a demo to see one built around your own customers and standards.
