Inspiration
One of the workshops in this hackathon regarded how startups form. This introduced into my mind the business/sales sector. I then thought what if there was a program that can make the most necessary skill in sales just a bit easier.
What it does
The program serves as a training tool for people in sales to practice their pitch and closing of a sale. The program is trained to mimic real life customers. They will give common rebuttals and discomfort. The program also focuses on speech and listening as the models in the program both listen and talk to the user rather than solely display text.
How we built it
The program utilizes JavaScript as its main language for processing server and client side data. It also incorporates ElevenLabs for the voices and OpenAi for the thinking.
Challenges we ran into
Connecting the APIs and "humanizing" the models/personas.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The program runs well and is a legitamite practice tool.
What we learned
How to both make use of and secure APIs
What's next for SimuSales
Perhaps more personas and make it easier for all models to deal with all manner of salesmen rather than specific.
