Introducing AI Coach: Practice That Prepares People for What Matters Most

May 19, 2026
Written by

Training only works if people can use it when it counts.

Too often, learning stops at completion. People take a course, understand the concept, and then face the real moment – whether it’s a tough conversation or a high-stakes decision – for the first time on the job.

That gap is where things break down.

At OpenSesame, we believe training should prepare people for those moments. That’s why we built our AI Coach, now live for all OpenSesame Plus customers. .

A safe place to practice before it counts

OpenSesame’s AI Coach gives learners a place to practice.

Instead of stopping at content, people step into realistic, conversational scenarios where they can respond, rethink, and try again. There’s no audience, no pressure, and no real-world consequences.

Every session starts fresh. No memory, no record—just a clean slate. That freedom helps people take risks, make mistakes, and actually learn.

Training that works when it matters most

AI Coach is part of how we help organizations deliver training that works.

We start with what the business depends on: safety, compliance, and the essential skills people need to do their jobs well. From there, we help you go further—giving teams access to 60,000+ curated courses, tools to create and customize training, and seamless delivery in the flow of work.

AI Coach fits right in.

It gives learners a place to practice those essential skills—communication, decision-making, and judgment—so they’re not just learning, they’re applying. And because it’s course-agnostic, you can add it anywhere in your programs to reinforce what matters most today while helping your workforce build the capabilities they’ll need as work continues to evolve.

Built for real teams

AI Coach works within what you already have.

It deploys like a standard course, integrates with your LMS, and fits into existing programs—so you can add practice without adding complexity.

And like everything we do, it’s backed by real expertise—from trusted content to support that helps you get it right.

Preparing people for what’s next

Work is changing. Expectations are higher. And people need to be ready when it matters.

AI Coach helps close that gap – so when those moments show up, your people aren’t figuring it out for the first time.

They’re ready.

Available now

AI Coach is now available to all OpenSesame Plus customers.
