Bridging the Gap Between Clinical Excellence and Human Connection
WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOUR HELPAre you a nursing educator or simulation center director, looking to make a difference? Fill out our survey (linked at the bottom), you could be our newest Advisory Council member.
THE CHALLENGE
Nursing education is rich in technical training — but interpersonal skills are often left behind.
Faculty are stretched thin, and traditional role-play methods are inconsistent, hard to scale, and difficult to assess. The result? A critical training gap in patient-centered care.
Students
Nursing students feel unprepared for the emotional and interpersonal demands of real-world patient care, which leads to attrition during college and career.
Faculty
Faculty are stretched thin and faced with trade-offs in teaching soft skills. Quality one-to-one engagements are not scalable and limit students' ability to practice.
Sim Center Directors
Simulation Center Directors face time and scheduling constraints, making it difficult to give students enough personalized attention that soft skill development requires.
THE PATH TO SOFT SKILL MASTERY
We’re developing EmpathEQ, a scalable, AI-driven simulation platform that trains soft skills using:
🎭 Ultra Realistic AI Actors that simulate high-stakes patient and colleague interactions, behaving as standardized patients📊 Patented Emotion Recognition technology to assess improvement, and deliver personalized, real-time feedback🧩 Scenario-Based Modules aligned with accreditation standards, mimicking what they'll experience in the field📈 Analytics Dashboards to track competency and support accreditation reporting workflows🔗 LMS Integration to meet learners where they already are and facilitate ease of use
EmpathEQ is the first and only option to offer the quality of synchronous soft skill training with asynchronous execution. No headsets required, students can practice on any device with a camera.
OUR MISSION
We’re building AI-powered training tools to help future healthcare professionals master the soft skills that matter most — empathy, communication, conflict resolution, and teamwork.
Our goal is simple: prepare students for the real-world human challenges they’ll face, not just the clinical ones.
BE A PART OF THE FUTURE
We’re inviting a limited number of nursing schools and healthcare educators to join our Advisory Council — shaping the product, piloting early versions, and gaining early access + benefits. Click the button to fill out our survey, or simply get in touch to get your questions answered.
Thank you!
We look forward to exploring the future of soft skills training with you.
