Second Nature
Conversational AI sales training platform where reps practice pitches and calls with an AI partner, get scored, and get certified.
Enterprise enablement teams onboarding many reps who want certification, scenario practice, and scores they can report on.
Small sales teams that want a free plan, or buyers who mainly need cold-call drills for SDRs.
Verdict
Second Nature is an AI sales training platform founded by Ariel Hitron and Alon Shalita. Sales enablement teams use it to give reps an AI practice partner that holds a real conversation, scores the pitch, and certifies reps before they talk to customers. It stands out because most onboarding still ends with a quiz, while Second Nature checks whether reps can say the message out loud before they face a buyer.

Review Excerpts
Below are excerpts from public reviews. Our team scoured public reviews, forums, and chat rooms to get a balanced view of customers' experience with this company. Paid reviews and pay-for-play sites such as Clutch were excluded.
“In 15 minutes we could create any scenario we want. It’s a very short process on the backside to get this set up.”
“One of the biggest things that we loved about Second Nature was that when the AI spoke to you, it felt like an actual person. That was a huge drive for us. These clients are very high end clients, they have very high end demands. We wanted this to feel as genuine as possible.”
“No one loves to practice, not in sports or anything, but that’s what gets you there. With AI we are able to make practice fun, reduce the barrier to entry, and you do it one-on-one so you don’t have that antsy feeling of doing it in front of your manager or VP or anyone else.”
“Our reps got good at passing the Second Nature scenarios, and some of them started saying exactly what the scorecard wanted instead of listening to the buyer.”
