YORD launches AI training platform for workplace simulations

YORD has launched Training Experience Platform, an AI training product for workplace simulations available through VR headsets and web browsers.

The system is designed to let employees practise difficult workplace situations through interactive exchanges with AI characters, followed by automated scoring and feedback.

Users can enter scenarios including difficult conversations with colleagues, sales presentations under pressure and command decisions in stressful conditions. The aim is to give workers practical rehearsal before they face similar moments in their jobs.

The product arrives as employers seek training methods that can show measurable results while limiting spending. YORD argued that conventional training based on courses and slide presentations often fails to change behaviour in real situations.

"People learn more by doing, not by just consuming," said Adam Rajnoha, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of YORD. "We didn't want to build another course nobody finishes. We wanted to build the practice people actually need before the moment that matters. TEP puts people in the room before it's real, so when it is real, they've already been there."

YORD said Training Experience Platform has already been adopted in defence, healthcare, insurance and sales enablement. It cited client data gathered across seven customers from December 2025 to October 2026.

According to those figures, teams completed training up to four times faster than with traditional methods. Participants also reported a 275% increase in confidence before facing real-world situations, while session engagement reached 96%.

Clients also recorded a 10% to 15% improvement in on-the-job performance after training, according to YORD. The company named the University of Defence, the Red Cross, Vienna Insurance Group and NovaSales among organisations using the platform.

Three tiers

Training Experience Platform is offered in three versions. The first, TEP.talk, is aimed at teams that want to begin immediately with predefined scenarios and no custom set-up.

The second, TEP.confi, adjusts scenarios, avatars and tone to reflect a company's standards and internal culture. The third, TEP.enterprise, is intended for broader operational simulations beyond conversations and includes custom AI logic as well as optional sensor integration.

YORD said organisations can move from an initial pilot to wider team deployment within six weeks. The platform also connects with existing human resources and learning systems, it said.

The launch expands YORD's work in AI and XR-based products. Founded in Prague and New York, the business said it has built projects for brands including Apple, Meta, LEGO, Bentley and L'Oréal.

YORD said it employs more than 35 designers, developers and creative technologists and has worked with more than 200 clients across North America, Western Europe and the Middle East. Its projects have included VR training simulations, AI avatars, interactive installations and custom digital products.

The company also said it has recorded 477% growth and has been ranked among Clutch's top 10 global VR and AR studios. Rajnoha said the new platform is focused on practice rather than content consumption: "People learn more by doing, not by just consuming."
