CloseCombat puts you on a live voice call with a fully voiced AI prospect — not a chatbot, not a script quiz. The pressure, the silence, the pushback — it's real. And the feedback is instant.

Setup to live call
Role-playing with a manager once a month, reading objection scripts, watching training videos — none of it trains the part of your brain that freezes when a CFO says "we're not in the budget right now." The skill you need for that moment is built by being in that exact moment, over and over, until it's a reflex. Nothing else replicates it.
The old way
CloseCombat
Why it works
Every session is a live two-way phone call. The AI prospect responds in real time using a voice model — not text-to-speech, not a script menu. They interrupt you. They go quiet. They say "can you send me something instead?" and wait to see how you handle it. The experience is close enough to the real thing that your nervous system responds the same way — which is exactly what makes the practice transfer.
Cold calls, warm inbound, discovery sessions, demo follow-ups, proposal reviews, re-engagements, renewals, upsells, gatekeeper navigation, voicemail callbacks, and text-to-call handoffs. You pick the exact stage you're struggling with — not a generic "sales call." The AI's objections, tone, and behavior are calibrated to that specific stage so you're practicing the right things against the right resistance.
Rookie prospects are open, slightly hesitant, easy to win. Closer-level prospects need real value before they move. Veteran prospects are price-sensitive, loyal to their current vendor, and push back hard on everything. Nightmare-mode prospects are C-suite executives who've been burned before, have a budget freeze active, and are actively looking for reasons to hang up. Eight brutal objections. No generic pushback — each one is a trap.
Describe your actual product, your industry, your prospect type — and the AI generates a completely unique persona for every session. Different name, different company, different pain points, different existing solution, different objections. You're never running the same scenario twice, which means you can't memorize your way through it. You have to actually sell your way through it, every time.
How it works
Describe your scenario in plain English
Pick a pipeline stage, choose a difficulty level, and enter your product name and a short description of what it does. That's it. The AI builds a unique prospect persona in under 45 seconds.
Get on the call
An AI prospect picks up. They respond to everything you say, push back on your pitch, raise objections calibrated to the stage and difficulty you chose, and react to how you handle them. No safety net. No script. No pause button.
Debrief and run it again
The session is automatically scored across five dimensions with a single coach directive. Find your weak spot, read the fix, and run the scenario again. The rep compounds — every session builds on the last.
The specifics that make it work in practice.
Load real prospect context before the call — their role, what they expressed interest in, their main hesitation — and the AI persona mirrors it exactly
Text-to-call stage starts with a prior SMS thread you're expected to reference on the call, just like the real scenario
Calls cap at 8 minutes so sessions are tight, repeatable, and habit-forming — not exhausting two-hour drills
Every session is automatically saved, scored, and debriefed — you always know what to improve before the next rep
Save a persona you want to practice against again — rematch the same character with the same objections until you own it
Gender-matched voices: male and female AI voice pools matched to persona — no jarring mismatches
Setup to live call in under 45 seconds — fast enough to run before your morning prospecting block

Common questions
How realistic does the AI prospect actually sound?
Realistic enough that most reps report genuine nerves during the first few sessions. The voice model responds in real time, reacts to what you say, and doesn't give you a polished script to react to. It interrupts, pauses, and pushes back naturally. It's not identical to a real human — but it's close enough that the pressure transfers.
Can I configure it for my specific product and industry?
Yes. Every session is configured with your product name, a description, your industry, and any prospect context you want to add — their role, what they've expressed interest in, their main hesitation. The AI persona is generated specifically from that input, not from a library of generic scenarios.
What if I'm a complete beginner?
Start with Rookie difficulty on warm inbound or discovery calls — the lowest-pressure entry point. The AI prospect is open, mildly hesitant, and easy to win. The debrief will tell you exactly what to work on. Build from there.
How many sessions can I run?
As many as you want. Sessions are credit-based — each session uses one credit. New users get one free session to try the platform. After that, you can purchase credits in packs or subscribe for unlimited access.
