CodeSignal, a technology platform renowned for its AI-driven technical assessment services, has expanded its offerings by introducing a comprehensive suite of soft skills courses. This innovative platform leverages artificial intelligence to assist professionals in honing their interpersonal and workplace communication abilities.
Historically, access to high-level executive coaching was limited to senior executives. However, CodeSignal’s advanced AI models empower individuals to acquire valuable knowledge and skills once reserved for the privileged few.
“We recognized the growing need for non-technical training in the workforce,” said Tigran Sloyan, CEO of CodeSignal. “With advancements in generative AI, we created a platform that makes soft skills training accessible to all.”
The AI-powered platform features over 100 courses covering essential areas such as effective one-on-one meetings, leadership assessments, behavioral profile evaluations, sales techniques, and public speaking enhancement.
Users engage in interactive simulations where they converse with AI characters using voice technology. CodeSignal developed its proprietary voice stack to optimize cost-effectiveness. After each conversation, the AI assistant provides personalized feedback and guidance for improvement.
Users receive a limited energy bar for free, but can upgrade to unlimited AI assistance for a monthly fee. Upon successful completion of courses, learners progress through proficiency levels (developing, intermediate, advanced, expert).
Companies can also leverage CodeSignal’s enterprise plans for tailored courses that align with their culture and values. However, cultural sensitivity remains a potential challenge, as AI may not fully grasp local customs or communication nuances.
To address this, CodeSignal works closely with clients to incorporate cultural and personality context into its experiences. The company also creates cultural templates for different regions and locations.
CodeSignal is not alone in exploring AI for soft skills development. Microsoft LinkedIn has also introduced AI-powered learning tools in this space. CodeSignal primarily operates through its website, with plans to launch mobile apps to enhance accessibility.
