We built Socratize, an AI-based training tool where employees practice real workplace scenarios instead of watching videos or taking quizzes.Most corporate training is passive. People watch content, click through slides, pass a quiz, and forget most of it within days.We wanted to try a different approach: learning through dialogue and repetition.With Socratize, users enter realistic scenarios and have to respond to an AI “counterparty”.For example:A sales rep practices handling: “Your product is too expensive” A support agent practices de-escalating an angry customer An employee practices explaining a compliance rule in their own wordsThe AI responds like a realistic counterpart, challenges weak arguments, and continues the conversation until the user improves or fails the scenario.The goal is simple: replace passive training with active practice.We’re using Claude to generate responses and evaluate the quality of the user’s arguments based on context and reasoning. Each session is stored so teams can see where people struggle and what scenarios are hardest.Tech stack:Next.js (frontend) Node.js backend PostgreSQL Claude APIWe launched the MVP last week.We’re still early and would really appreciate feedback from people here:Does this approach actually make sense for training? What use cases are we missing? What would make this fail in real companies? Is this fundamentally useful or just “interesting but not needed”?Try it here: https://socratize.ioFree tier, no credit card required.Happy to answer any questions.
