Arlington, VA — February 1, 2026Tech Duels, creator of the LogiCoach AI communication training platform, and Yoodli, the leading enterprise AI roleplay platform for sales enablement and professional training, announced a strategic partnership that will transform how professionals develop communication, critical thinking, and persuasion skills at scale.

This collaboration brings the rigor of competitive debate into enterprise and academic environments by combining LogiCoach AI’s debate-driven learning methodology with Yoodli’s powerful, enterprise-grade roleplay and analytics platform. Together, the two companies are redefining communication training, from how people speak to how they think under pressure.

"“Effective communication isn’t just about fluency; it’s about logical rigor and the ability to adapt in real time. By partnering with Yoodli, we are bringing the power of LogiCoach AI to the world’s largest sales and leadership teams, helping them win the room and the deal.”"

 — Aubrey Semple, Head of Learning and Debate, Tech Duels

Elevating Communication Through Debate-Driven AI Coaching

While traditional communication training focuses on delivery mechanics, LogiCoach AI is built around the cognitive foundations of persuasion, including what to say, why it works, and how to respond when challenged. Through simulated debates with AI opponents, users strengthen their ability to construct arguments, identify fallacies, and pivot strategically in high-stakes conversations.

By integrating LogiCoach AI into Yoodli’s roleplay ecosystem, learners can now practice debate-level thinking within realistic business and academic scenarios, supported by real-time feedback, detailed analytics, and measurable progress tracking.

Through this partnership, users gain access to:

  • AI-Powered Debate Simulations
    Practice real-time scenarios ranging from boardroom negotiations and sales objections to academic defenses and leadership discussions—against an AI that actively challenges logic and clarity.
  • Data-Driven Skill Development
    Unified dashboards provide insight into speech patterns, argument strength, reasoning quality, and cognitive growth over time.
  • Advanced Sales Enablement
    Sales teams move beyond static scripts to develop the agility required to handle complex objections, competitive comparisons, and executive-level conversations.
  • Scalable Academic & Professional Training
    Institutions and organizations can offer learners a personalized, 24/7 debate coach—preparing them for professional, academic, and leadership success.

This partnership enables Tech Duels and Yoodli to bring high-impact, debate-inspired training to sales teams, leaders, educators, and students worldwide. Whether navigating a critical deal, defending an idea, or leading a high-stakes meeting, users are equipped to think faster, argue better, and communicate with confidence.
