Yoodli Reviews & Product Details

At CJM, a communication and leadership training organisation, what we value most about Yoodli is that it allows people to actually practise. The training world has become so accustomed to thinking that because we conceptually understand something we must be capable of it, but the only way to turn an idea into sustained behaviour change is through practice and consistent feedback. Yoodli allows our clients to take what they have learned in our programs and practise it in a safe and reliable way, 24/7.

We have worked with Yoodli since the early days in 2024, and the pace of innovation on the platform has been incredible. We worked with Yoodli to develop our CJM AI Coach, which works like a virtual faculty member and subject matter expert, allowing clients to talk through ideas and discuss their approach to real-world situations. The Yoodli AI Tutor, which makes this possible, engages users through curiosity rather than simply testing or challenging them. It’s intrinsically motivating and allows individuals to bridge the gap between general program content and their specific context. Yoodli’s AI roleplay builder is another great feature, ensuring people can practise relevant scenarios instead of generic roleplays, increasing engagement while still providing feedback aligned with the organisation’s goals and metrics.

Most importantly, Yoodli has given us the holy grail: we can now demonstrate ROI by obtaining detailed metrics on baseline capability and impact over time. One particular engagement saw us running a global pitch competition for a leading AI company, where participants’ scores improved across ten areas by between 25% and 180%.

I recommend it to any organisation that wants its training investment to produce measurable improvement in capability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The usual teething problems as a start up adapts to customer needs and new opportunities: a sometimes disjointed user experience and suite of features that don't always fit together the way you might like. Luckily the team have been very responsive and invested considerable resources into updating the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s been a game changer for our programs because we can easily customize the roleplays and get very specific about what we need. It also makes it simple to demonstrate progress, and our participants get excited to engage with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike. I was an early adopter and the improvements for the dashboard and interface have been fantastic! It is very reliable and the AI intelligence allows for very realistic interactions. I would like more voices which they are updating regularly. I also really would like an "upspeak" and glottal fry exercise module Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yoodli provides high quality coaching feedback on AI role plays. Not just telling you what you did right or wrong, but specific wording and examples of how it could be done better - and that guidance is customizable based on the rubric and goals you set.

The team at Yoodli offers great support and guidance, it connects to other systems in useful ways, and is easy for users to access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features are still being developed - such as bringing in calls from platforms like Zoom or Teams (similar to the Yoodli integration already in place for Gong), and integration to CRM systems. I'm looking forward to using those once they are available (and I believe they are on the development roadmap) - but they aren't ready yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are heaps of aspects but the key things that Yoodli deliver are an effective space for quality practice on the things that matter. I have yet to find a better method for individuals to embed learning. Additionally, the ease of getting started is incredibly refined and allows individuals (and administrators) to get going quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s a wide range of options available, which can make it difficult to stay focused on the specific tasks you’re trying to work on. This has improved over time, but it still feels like an ongoing balancing act between adding new features and keeping them accessible and relevant to the user base.

Now when I prep founders for press, we run the hard questions first in Yoodli's AI roleplay: the skeptical reporter, the "so what makes you different" follow-up, the question they're hoping nobody asks. They practice as many times as they need, and they get feedback on pacing, filler words, and whether the key message actually landed.

Recently, I used Yoodli's AI roleplays to help a founder I work with prep for a tier 1 interview alongside her customer. That's a tricky setup, because you're telling a joint story and you can't have one voice drowning out the other. We built a roleplay with a tier 1 reporter persona and rehearsed the handoffs and the questions that might go to each of them, so the customer's results came through in the customer's own words. When the interview happened, they sounded like partners, not a vendor with a reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have anything that I dislike about the product itself or the feedback it gives me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yoodli is highly multi-purpose, with the ability to address a striking breadth of use cases across the enterprise. Beyond the traditional "stand and deliver" roleplay, we have used it to coach leaders through difficult conversations with team members, to prep sellers for unscripted and slide-free customer conversations and created practice sessions for demo delivery and storytelling.

The back-end integration to our learning university is still not fully functional. To be honest, I'm not sure whether this is on our end, Yoodli's end or the go-between but we do lose the ability to track learners once they've clicked out of the eLearning and into the roleplay or Tutor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the best feedback we got about Yoodli is how realistic the scenarios feel. Tenured employees shared that the roleplays match real conversations they've had on the job. We've been leaning into this personalization to keep our training super relevant and meaningful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface was a little challenging to get used to at first. I get the sense it was designed before so many new features were added to Yoodli, so sometimes it takes me a few extra clicks to find what I’m looking for. That said, the recent move of additional navigation options to the sidebar has already helped our new authors understand Content Spaces better. Yoodli is clearly working on improving the UI, and overall the experience is moving in the right direction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yoodli feels like the ideal blend of super-powerful technology and great vibes. It gives our Sales team a way to get solid practice reps on new messaging and tactics, and to learn our new product features well before trying them out with a client or prospect. It’s also easy to use for both end users and admins/creators. Between the good price and how useful the tool is, it’s been a total no-brainer for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like many new technologies, there are some glitches and UI improvements needed, mostly for the admins. The team listens to feedback and has proven they can implement change quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yoodli gives employees a safe space to practice customer conversations while receiving real-time feedback that helps them improve performance and build confidence.

The platform is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it simple to create customized scenarios that align with our training objectives. Its speed has been equally impressive, delivering timely, relevant feedback and realistic coaching experiences that keep learners engaged while accelerating skill development. Employees can practice conversations repeatedly in a risk-free environment, allowing them to refine their approach, improve consistency, and build confidence before interacting with customers.

Beyond the technology itself, the Yoodli team has been an outstanding partner. They have been highly responsive to feedback, receptive to enhancement ideas, and collaborative in helping us tailor the platform to meet our organization's needs. Their commitment to continuous improvement, coupled with the platform's ease of use and powerful AI capabilities, has made Yoodli a valuable extension of our training strategy.

One of its most impressive features is the AI tutor, which provides on-demand coaching and support anytime employees need it. We have been amazed by how quickly the AI leverages our curriculum to become a knowledgeable subject matter expert, delivering personalized guidance that reinforces learning and supports skill development long after formal training has ended.

The impact of the program has not gone unnoticed. The success we've achieved has garnered interest across our organization, leading to adoption by our partner bank and a planned rollout across all charters later this year. This expansion is a strong endorsement of the platform's ability to enhance employee development, drive consistency in training, and improve the quality of customer interactions. It also demonstrates a clear return on investment by scaling high-quality coaching, reducing the need for additional training resources, and providing employees with continuous development opportunities that improve performance and confidence. The decision to expand the program organization-wide reflects the measurable value it delivers, and the confidence leadership has in its long-term impact on employee growth and customer experience.

One opportunity for enhancement would be the addition of more lifelike AI personas. While the current personas are effective, increasing their realism through more natural expressions, speaking styles, and customer behaviors could further strengthen the practice experience and make conversations feel even more authentic.

The data it provides is unmatched, and the versatility with which it can be used is impressive -- from quick elevator pitches to job interviews to long keynotes -- it can do it all. My clients find it easy to use and helpful once they commit to the behavior of getting in and doing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only caution is that if you're a coach, make sure you are also analyzing the results with your client. I had one person who internalized the Yoodli feedback as harsh and critical in her head, but I did not know this was happening, so I couldn't help. This is totally preventable if you lay the ground rules ahead. I tell clients they get both: They get "The Yoodli AI eye" and they get "The Cindy eye" because I know them and their situation the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
