Second Nature has built a conversational AI platform that ingests a company’s recorded calls, scripts and collateral to create lifelike role-plays for sales and customer-service training. Reps practice with AI avatars that handle objections, diverse customer moods and multiple languages, then receive targeted feedback against customizable metrics. Customers typically launch their first scenarios within an hour and have seen sales rise more than 20 % after only 30 minutes of practice per trainee, while onboarding cycles have been cut by as much as three weeks. Specific results include GoHealth trimming onboarding time by 33 % and Zoom more than doubling monthly sales opportunities from 2.78 to over 6. The system supports 20+ languages and is used by brands such as Oracle, Adobe, Teleperformance, Check Point and Zoom. Founded in 2019 by Ariel Hitron and Alon Shalita, the company positions itself to evolve from training software to next-generation AI sales agents. The newly raised capital will fund product expansion and deeper technology development.
