Soulor

Rehearse hard conversations with AI-simulated people to improve communication.

Problem
Many people don't know how to start difficult conversations (quitting a job, discussing sensitive topics with a partner) and fear saying the wrong thing. A 16-year-old high school student independently built Soulor, a tool that simulates people to help users rehearse from multiple perspectives, proving the demand and appeal to younger users. Existing solutions may be too simple, lacking structured feedback and scenario templates.
Solution
An AI conversation rehearsal tool: users pick a scenario (workplace, relationship, family), the system generates a simulated character with specific personality and stance, and the user practices multi-turn dialogue. Afterward, it gives feedback: what might escalate conflict, what worked well, and how to improve. Supports saved sessions and progress tracking.
Users
Professionals preparing for hard conversations, socially anxious individuals, non-native speakers, and students wanting to improve communication skills.
MVP
Choose preset scenario templates (quitting, declining a request); AI plays the other person; post-conversation feedback report; restart and compare practice sessions.
Revenue
Free basic scenarios + $5/month subscription for advanced scenarios, unlimited practice, and detailed feedback; partner with corporate EAP programs for bundled sales.
Why now
LLM role-play is now natural enough, while mental health and communication training markets are growing fast, letting indie developers build quickly with APIs.
