Debate simulation · with an opponent that fights back

Debate-ready, before the cameras roll.

Put on a headset and debate an AI built from your real opponent's record. Real interruptions, real crosstalk, real pressure — then a report that measures exactly how you did.

“The pension freeze protected the fund. If you reverse it, you have to say who pays—”

AI OPPONENT · INTERRUPTING

“—that is simply not true. Working families paid for your mistake, and you know it—”

“Order. You didn't answer the question — who pays?”

The problem

Debate prep today is a document and a favor.

01

Staff can't be the opponent

They don't know the record and rhetoric the way the opponent does — and they won't attack their own boss hard.

02

Repetitions are scarce

Two or three mock debates before a broadcast. Skills built under pressure need dozens.

03

Feedback is impressionistic

“You did fine, be sharper on pensions.” No airtime, no evasions counted, no voter verdict.

4.1 · Live Debate Simulator

It doesn't take turns.
It fights back.

Full-duplex voice AI: everyone listens and speaks at once. The opponent interrupts mid-sentence. You can talk over it — it pushes back. When it collapses into crosstalk, the moderator's voice cuts through and re-asks the question you dodged.

4.2 · Knowledge Base

The campaign's debate brain.

Everything the simulator says and the analysis measures is grounded in materials your team controls. You define the people and the messages; we supply the political terrain.

OPPONENT PERSONAS

Build who you'll face

History, positions, message boxes, known attack lines, temperament. Sharpen them as the campaign moves — the next preparation reads what you changed.

OWN-CANDIDATE PLAYBOOK

Your ammunition

Approved argumentation, prepared counters, red lines. The engine flags every counter you had but didn't use.

VOTER PERSONAS

The scoring lenses

Define the voter groups that decide your race. Each one watches the debate and scores it.

MODERATOR LIBRARY

Archetypes & custom

Ready-made moderation styles, or fully custom profiles with tunable crosstalk tolerance.

PUBLIC RECORD · BY ROSTRALAB

What they are saying now

We collect Slovak media and broadcast transcripts into a shared public record, so the opponent's recent statements reach the preparation with their sources attached.

SOURCE-GROUNDED

Argues from the record

Attach statements, positions, and voting records as sources — not imagination.

4.3 · Post-debate Analysis

Measured, not felt.

Delivered minutes after each simulation. One debate, seen through every audience that matters.

Why RostraLab is different.

The only practice partner that fights back in real time

Interruptions and crosstalk are the defining pressure of televised debate — the thing no scripted role-play reproduces.

The opponent is your opponent

Not a generic debater — a persona your team builds, sharpens, and updates from the public record.

Feedback is measured, not felt

Airtime, evasions, missed counters, and voter-group verdicts replace “I think it went well.”

The loop closes

Upload the real broadcast afterwards: the debrief shows which prepared attacks actually came, what nobody predicted, and how the voter groups scored the real thing next to the rehearsal.
