Shortlist Exec when practicing cold calls, discovery, and objection handling safely matters most, and Wave when capturing in-person meetings and lectures from a phone matters most. Test each on your own meetings; the right choice tends to become obvious quickly.

Cross-platform AI note taker that records and transcribes meetings, calls, and voice memos into summaries.
Exec is an AI roleplay and training platform designed to help sales reps, leaders, and support staff practice high-stakes conversations before they happen with real customers. Its core function is generating voice-based AI characters that simulate buyers and other counterparts, complete with industry context and customizable traits, so reps can rehearse cold calls, discovery, negotiation, and objection handling in unscripted, dynamic conversations. The platform supports custom scenario creation and includes screen-sharing functionality so reps can practice product demos and presentations, not just talk tracks. After each roleplay, Exec provides instant performance insights, including actionable improvement tips and an AI coach that can explain scores, surface growth areas, and run short follow-up sessions to work through specific gaps. For managers and enablement teams, Exec offers analytics dashboards tracking skill development over time, performance trending, leaderboards, certification, and integration with existing learning management systems. It maintains SOC 2 Type II certification and states it does not use customer data to train its models. Exec is aimed at enterprise sales and revenue teams that want to close the gap between training content and real behavior change through repeated, measurable practice. Pricing varies by plan.
