Practice the conversation before it happens. Ask for a raise, push back on your boss, set a boundary or give honest feedback. Rehearse it with an AI character who reacts like a real person, see exactly what to change, and try again — before anything real is on the line. HOW IT WORKS 1. Rehearse — a realistic AI character responds to what you actually say, including pushback. 2. Review — line-by-line feedback: what worked, what created friction, the opportunity you missed and a stronger way to say it. 3. Learn from a pro — watch an expert replay of the same conversation with a breakdown of the strategy. 4. Switch roles — play the other person and feel how your words land. 5. Try again — repeat until the right words come naturally. 886 REAL-LIFE SCENARIOS • Work: salary negotiation, managing up, difficult feedback, interviews, saying no to extra work • Relationships and family: boundaries, money talks, conflict with partners and parents • Everyday life: roommates, neighbors, group projects, customer service, speaking up All 886 scenarios are available in English. TYPE OR SPEAK Type when you want time to think, or use Live Voice Practice to say it out loud in real time (daily limits apply). BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO On the inner display, keep the scenario briefing beside your conversation in two panes, with your actions in the Duo side bar. Stand it up like a book to rehearse hands-free and out loud with Live voice. The cover display gets a focused single-column layout. STAY CONSISTENT Track your rounds and streak, and use the Daily EQ Workout widget. No account required — Sign in with Apple is optional. FREE TO START Try selected scenarios and a limited number of conversations for free. EQ Premium (monthly or yearly) unlocks every scenario and the full practice loop. Eligible new subscribers can start the yearly plan with a 3-day free trial. Prices and trial eligibility are shown before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when an eligible free trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription. EQ Trainer is a communication practice tool, not therapy, legal or medical advice. AI feedback can be imperfect.

Amplify EQ turns everyday workplace conversations into emotional-intelligence practice you can do anywhere - privately, offline, on your own iPhone or iPad. Chat with four AI coworkers based on the four classic DISC personality archetypes. Each one reacts differently. Watch a live sentiment bar move with every message. Get a personalized EQ report at the end of each scenario. MEET YOUR 4 COWORKERS Red - The Dominant Impatient. Direct. Results above all. Loves direct solutions, concrete numbers, brevity. Hates hedging and long-winded excuses. Practice clarity and confidence under pressure. Yellow - The Inspiring Enthusiastic. Easily distracted. Emotional. Loves compliments, energy, big-picture vision. Hates cold tone and pure data dumps. Practice grounding enthusiasm into actionable steps. Green - The Stable Patient. Loyal. Resists sudden change. Loves gentle pacing, reassurance, step-by-step plans. Hates aggressive pushing and surprise pivots. Practice empathy, validation, and shared meaning. Blue - The Analytical Precise. Fact-driven. Skeptical of vibes. Loves hard evidence, structured data, logic chains. Hates emotional buzzwords and speculation. Practice structured reasoning without sounding cold. Each persona is powered by a state-of-the-art on-device language model and responds with realistic, varied tone - never scripted. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a scenario - a tough feedback conversation, a stalled project, a tense status check, or free play. 2. Chat naturally. The persona replies in character. 3. Watch the live sentiment bar - green means you are building trust, red means tension is rising. 4. Finish the round and read your EQ report: tone awareness, empathy signals, escalation moments, and concrete suggestions for next time. WHY ON-DEVICE AI MATTERS - 100% private - every conversation runs locally using the Gemma 4 model. Nothing is sent to any server. - Works fully offline after the one-time model download. - No accounts. No subscriptions. No tracking. No ads. - Your chats are stored only on your device and you can delete them anytime. WHO IT IS FOR - New managers learning to give feedback - Engineers practicing stakeholder updates - Consultants rehearsing tough client meetings - Anyone who wants to grow EQ without role-playing in front of a coach - Students and professionals studying communication, leadership, or negotiation WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Traditional EQ training is one-way reading or expensive coaching. Amplify EQ gives you unlimited, judgment-free reps with realistic AI partners - and instant feedback you can act on the same day. The four personas share the same on-device model but carry distinct personality profiles so each conversation feels recognizably different. No two runs are the same. PRIVACY-FIRST BY DESIGN We chose on-device AI for one reason: your workplace conversations should stay yours. Amplify EQ does not collect personal data, does not require sign-up, does not show ads, and does not phone home. Read our full Privacy Policy in-app. SYSTEM NOTES - iPhone or iPad with iOS 16 or later - Around 3 GB free storage for the AI model (one-time download over Wi-Fi recommended) - Best on devices released in the last 3 years; older devices will work but respond more slowly Start your first conversation today and feel your EQ improve, one chat at a time.
