VirtualSpeech vs. HyperSkill
We outperform VirtualSpeech in three ways: speed of catalog growth, variety and quality of simulations and price. First, we build dozens of simulations each month, faster than any other company. This is made possible by the HyperSkill AI-powered, no-code platform. Second, HyperSkill content library includes a large variety of simulations that are AI-powered. We offer speech focused simulations for a variety of topics. We also offer a much wider variety of environments and situations to provide practice opportunities in realistic settings. Third, our price is a tiny fraction of the VirtualSpeech price. We adopt this strategy to expand access and enable everyone to build skills and navigate the future of work.

SCMEP worked with SimInsights to solve a major production training challenge using Virtual Reality with one of our clients in South Carolina. California based SimInsights went the extra mile to deliver an impressive solution. Our client was blown away and their employees love the Virtual Reality training. It took nine weeks to train a new employee with on-machine training. The new Virtual Reality training can train them in 15 days and saving the company millions. SimInsights is one awesome company!!
