FAQ
Does this work for SDR vs full-cycle AE hires?
Yes. SDR roleplay focuses on cold opens; AE roleplay covers discovery → close.
Can the agent handle technical-product objections?
Yes. Train on your product's technical depth and agent runs technical objection scenarios.
What plan supports a 30-rep hiring effort?
Pro ($16/mo annual) handles the volume. Business ($40/mo) adds cohort ramp-vs-interview-score correlation analytics.
