About

Talespin is an XR learning and talent development platform headquartered in Culver City, California. Founded in 2015, Talespin builds immersive VR and AR learning experiences designed to develop interpersonal and cognitive skills that are difficult to train through conventional e-learning—including leadership communication, empathy, conflict resolution, sales conversations, and DE&I behaviors. The company's signature product is CoPilot, an AI-powered virtual human technology that enables learners to practice high-stakes conversations with responsive, realistic digital characters in real time, without the scheduling constraints and emotional stakes of live role-play scenarios with human coaches or trainers.\n\nTalespin's platform enables organizations to author, deploy, and analyze XR learning experiences at enterprise scale. Its content creation tools allow learning and development teams to build custom XR scenarios using a no-code authoring environment, while Talespin also offers a catalog of pre-built learning experiences for common enterprise skill development topics. The platform integrates with corporate LMS systems and HR platforms, with analytics that capture behavioral patterns during simulations—such as tone of voice, eye contact with virtual characters, and verbal response patterns—to surface measurable competency signals that traditional assessments miss.\n\nTalespin competes with Strivr, Mursion, and TRANSFR in the enterprise XR learning market. Its focus on soft skills and interpersonal competency development—powered by AI virtual human technology—occupies a distinct niche from VR training vendors focused primarily on procedural or safety training. For enterprise L&D leaders seeking to scale coaching and role-play-intensive training programs across large, distributed workforces, Talespin's CoPilot technology offers a measurable, repeatable alternative to resource-intensive live practice environments.
