These industry-first tools represent the only AI technology trained exclusively on authentic Huthwaite International research, offering sales professionals and L&D teams an unprecedented opportunity to embed SPIN® Selling behaviours at scale.
The new solutions address a critical challenge facing global organisations: how to sustain learning momentum and drive meaningful behaviour change beyond traditional classroom training. By combining decades of proven SPIN® methodology with cutting-edge artificial intelligence, Huthwaite has created a comprehensive ecosystem that supports continuous skill development and measurable performance improvement.
Revolutionary AI coaching available around the clock
The SPIN® AI Mentor functions as an intelligent virtual coach, providing personalised guidance 24/7 across multiple languages and devices. Unlike generic AI solutions, this mentor has been exclusively trained on Huthwaite's extensive SPIN® research base, ensuring every interaction reflects proven sales methodologies that have transformed performance for millions of professionals worldwide.
Sales professionals can leverage the AI Mentor to prepare for critical customer meetings, craft compelling SPIN® questions, analyse conversation outcomes, and develop strategic next steps. When human coaching support isn't available, the Mentor delivers expert-level guidance precisely when it's needed most, ensuring consistent application of SPIN® principles across global teams.
Risk-free practice with realistic customer interactions
The AI Customer Simulation Bot complements the Mentor by offering safe, judgement-free environments where sales professionals can practise and perfect their skills. These sophisticated simulations provide realistic customer conversations aligned with SPIN® methodology, delivering immediate developmental feedback that accelerates skill acquisition.
The platform offers bespoke simulation scenarios tailored to specific industries and business challenges, enabling contextualised learning that resonates with real-world sales situations. This approach ensures that theoretical knowledge translates into practical capability, driving measurable improvements in customer engagement and sales outcomes.
