16 real negotiation personalities

Train against dominant buyers, hesitant analysts or impulsive negotiators: Freya adapts like your real counterpart.

Your negotiation score

Objectively measured, continuously improved: like a chess Elo rating, but for negotiating.

Real business scenarios

No textbook examples: train on cases from your industry and your daily negotiations.

Fail here, not at the client

Freya is your sparring partner. Nobody is watching, nobody judges you in front of your boss.

Voice negotiation

Real-time spoken sessions with an AI counterpart that listens, pushes back, and adapts.

Complexity and difficulty

Choose the personality profile (DISC-based) and the difficulty of your counterpart, from friendly to professional hardliner.

Live HUD

Words-per-minute, sentiment, talk-listen ratio, and small-talk handling — as it happens.

AI feedback

Per-dimension scores, transcript-anchored quotes, and the three things to fix next time.

Who it is for

Built for the teams that negotiate every week

Sales teams
Sales teams

Discounts given away early, closes that slip, price defended with feeling instead of structure.

Price defense, objection handling, multi-issue packages against a counterpart you set to hardliner.

Measured on anchoring, concession pattern and close discipline.

Procurement teams
Procurement teams

Supplier increases accepted under time pressure, single-issue haggling, no rehearsed BATNA.

Annual contracts, index clauses, supply-security trades, escalation with a tough account manager.

Measured on value creation, tactic defense and process control.

HR, Comp & Benefits
HR, Comp & Benefits

Salary and exit conversations that turn emotional, inconsistent positions across managers.

Offer talks, salary reviews, restructuring conversations with calibrated difficulty.

Measured on tactical communication and interest-based framing.

Grounded in research.

Freya's foundations were developed together with the University of St. Gallen, Prof. Christoph Hilger and the core expertise of our CEO Dipl.-Ing. Jörg Köck, and were built by Ribanna Dittrich (PhD) and her team.

Your skill journey

Like a video game — but for real skills

Measure your baseline

Start with a calibration scenario. Freya identifies your strengths and weaknesses across 10 negotiation skills.

Train one skill at a time

Pick the skill that challenges you most. Practice with scenarios built specifically to level up that skill.

Track your progress

Your NELO rises with every session. Unlock new skills and higher levels — visible progress as motivating as an achievement system.

How we prove progress

Every session delivers evidence, not opinions

Freya scores every conversation against a fixed negotiation rubric and shows you exactly which moment made the difference. Always the same rubric — so your progress stays comparable over time.

How it works
You negotiate

You hold a real conversation with Freya, like with a real counterpart.

Freya listens closely

Freya recognises what you say and do. Every move, every reaction, every moment that shapes the outcome.

You see what really counts

No gut feeling, no vague critique: you get a score and see exactly which moment made you stronger or weaker.

Your NELO score

Like an Elo rating in chess, but for negotiating. A number that only moves with real performance — comparable across every session.

Six rubric dimensions
Preparation & anchoring

How well you walk in and set the first number.

Value creation

Whether you find extra value for both sides.

Value capture

How you secure your fair share.

Tactical communication

How you ask, listen and steer information.

Objection & tactic defense

How you respond to pressure tactics.

Process & close

How cleanly you get to the close.

For teams too: averages and trends per team, so the training budget lands where the gap is.

Our mission

Uniting human expertise, emotional intelligence and AI in one system.

Our mission is to enable professionals to prepare better, decide smarter and negotiate with clarity and control — turning a one-off event into a continuous performance system.

Enterprise-ready by default

EU hosting, GDPR and EU AI Act alignment, DPA on request, and role-based access for team admins.
