30+ years of learning science, cognitive psychology, and sales performance research all converge on the same conclusion — real-time, in-context coaching is the single highest-leverage intervention in sales.
Hermann Ebbinghaus proved it in 1885 and it's been replicated ever since: humans forget 50% of new information within one hour, 70% within 24 hours, and 90% within 30 days. The industry confirms it — 79% of sales training content is forgotten within a month of a training event. Every dollar spent on pre-meeting workshops and playbook reviews is fighting a losing battle against human memory.
Meanwhile, the Center for Creative Leadership's 30+ years of research found that 70% of professional learning happens through challenging, real-world experiences — not classrooms. It's obvious: the live customer conversation is where learning actually happens. And until now, it was completely unsupported.
The research is overwhelming. Across learning science, sales performance studies, and cognitive psychology, the data points in one direction.
Reps who receive coaching within 24 hours of a call are 2.5x more likely to improve performance vs. those receiving delayed feedback. Live Advisor coaches during the call — zero delay.
Combining seller training with real-time coaching is 4x more effective than training alone. It's proven by science — the coaching amplifies everything your team has already learned.
Experiential learning methods achieve 75% retention rates vs. traditional lecture-based training. Live Advisor turns every sales meeting into an experiential learning event.
Sellers are 63% more likely to be Top Performers when they receive effective coaching combined with training. It's clear — coaching is the multiplier that makes training actually stick.
Live call coaching delivers $4.50 for every $1 invested — a 350% ROI. It's clear this is the highest-return investment a sales organization can make in rep performance.
Through reduced ramp time, improved retention, and faster time-to-productivity. It's obvious — when reps get better faster and stay longer, the savings compound.
57% of employees now expect learning to be "just-in-time" — delivered in the moment of need, not before or after. The research proves just-in-time interventions show 40% improvement in receptivity vs. random-timing delivery. But delivering true real-time coaching in a live meeting requires more than software — it requires architecture.
Competitors who attempt in-meeting AI must round-trip data out of the meeting platform — adding latency, cost, and complexity. By the time coaching arrives, the moment has passed. Post-call tools like Gong and Chorus analyze recordings after the meeting — useful for training, but useless for the deal happening right now.
Scoot's AI agents run co-located with Wizard, our proprietary video engine. This means lower latency (coaching arrives while the moment is live), lower cost (no external API round-trips), and better context (the AI sees everything happening in the meeting natively). This isn't a feature — it's a platform advantage that can't be replicated by bolting AI onto existing meeting tools.
The $365B corporate training industry has a problem: 90% of what it teaches is forgotten within a month.
The 70-20-10 model — backed by 30+ years of research — tells us why. 70% of professional learning happens through real-world experience. But until now, there was no way to systematically coach people inside those experiences.
Live Advisor changes this. It's the first AI that coaches sales reps in real time, during live customer conversations — occupying the 70% learning zone that traditional training completely misses.
This isn't training. This is performance.
