About SimDuo

Built by a trial lawyer and an AI researcher.

We built SimDuo because advocacy improves through repetition and honest feedback. Both are hard to get before the stakes are real. Trial advocacy is learned by doing, but realistic witness practice is expensive, hard to schedule, and often reserved for the moments when performance already matters. SimDuo is designed to make those sessions easier to run, measure, and repeat.
