Tacit helps people build the work experience and human skills employers are looking for, with realistic work simulations, personal assessment and coaching.
What Tacit does
Each work simulation is a short run of realistic work. The learner talks to AI colleagues and stakeholders by voice or text, does the actual work in between, and gets assessed and coached on every attempt.
A manager, stakeholder or recruiter sets the task, and leaves some of it unclear on purpose.
Between conversations, the learner builds the real thing: an analysis, a feedback note, a plan.
The stakeholder questions the work, and remembers what was promised earlier.
Scored against criteria the programme or company sets.
A debrief on what to do differently, then try again.
Two ways in
Bootcamps, employability programmes and the funders behind them. Give every learner work experience before their first job, and see who is ready.
Managers, analysts and teams moving into new roles. Practise the hard parts of the job before they happen for real.

And people starting out face the opposite problem: they can't get the job without experience, and they can't get experience without the job.
Why content isn't enough
Courses explain the job. They can't give you the moment a stakeholder questions your numbers, or a team member pushes back on your review. That only comes from practice, with someone who tells you what to do differently next time.
What works, and why it hasn't scaled
Across 96 randomised trials, tutoring raised learning substantially, by about a third of a standard deviation on average. But a personal tutor for every learner has always been too expensive for most programmes and most companies.
