Three of the costs, side by side.

If you build it
With an AI roleplay platform
ScoringRubric writing and calibration become a standing responsibility. Consistency drifts, and trust in the score drifts with it.
ScoringAdmins define rubrics and scorecards aligned to MEDDPICC, Challenger, or your own motion. The platform applies them the same way to every rep.
Model changesEvery model update is an unplanned re-test of the whole program, owned by whoever is left.
Model changesThe vendor owns model changes and keeps scoring stable. Your team reads about updates in release notes.
CoachingCoaching falls back to managers who do not have the time, and practice stays a one-time event.
CoachingAn AI coach follows each rep, assigns practice where they are weakest, remembers prior sessions, and checks back.
