Boundary Coach is an AI-powered communication training tool designed to help professionals develop assertive communication skills through realistic roleplay scenarios.
Most people never practice difficult conversations before having them. They wing it, get emotional, and either cave or explode. Both outcomes damage relationships and careers.
Boundary Coach gives you a safe space to practice. Our AI agents simulate the exact dynamics you face at work — dismissive managers, passive-aggressive coworkers, guilt-tripping colleagues — so you can develop your skills without real-world consequences.
I was struggling with communication patterns in the workplace that were negatively impacting my mental health. I couldn't name what was going on. I didn't understand it. And because I couldn't name it, I couldn't figure out how to respond differently — or have a different experience.
My world got very dark, and with the help of others, I started learning about boundaries, anger, and healthy communication. And I realized that I had a lot to learn — and practice. I had a massive skills deficit. I could learn this. I knew I was capable. But practicing boundaries and assertive communication can be risky and tricky when you're already in a challenging relationship or workplace. It might feel safer to not practice in real life, because the consequences of saying or doing the wrong thing may be too high.
I originally planned to use therapy to role-play difficult conversations — to practice responding to the people I had to communicate with at work. And while therapy was a really good environment for this — a safe container to practice skills — I wanted to start now. I wanted to improve quickly. I was deeply motivated to learn these skills, put them to work, and feel confident in my ability to navigate difficult situations.
So I built this app for myself to practice. And it really helped me see the patterns — the red flags, the communication styles, the tactics that used to leave me frozen. If you're where I was, I hope it helps you too.
Pick from 13 workplace and personal situations — deadline pressure, blame-shifting, boundary violations, and more.
Type what you'd actually say. The AI responds in-character, escalating or adapting like a real person would.
Every response is scored on 5 dimensions: clarity, ownership, respectful tone, specific request, and emotional regulation.
See how an assertiveness expert would handle the same exchange. Compare your approach and internalize the patterns.
We are all human, and we all make mistakes. Knowing how to skillfully navigate moments when boundaries are crossed — or when someone is simply having a bad day — is a powerful way to support yourself in life.
However, Boundary Coach is a skill-building tool, not a replacement for mental health care. If you find yourself in an environment where the patterns we teach about are relational norms — not occasional bad days — that environment may be negatively impacting your mental health, daily functioning, and quality of life.
Practicing assertive communication may improve your resilience and support you in moving toward your long-term goals. But it's equally important to do the work of finding environments and relationships where you feel safe, loved, and respected.
