Striver: coaching for the conversations that matter

Scores recorded conversations against what good looks like, and tells you what to do differently next time.

Chris Russo ยท Spring 2025

Striver reads the transcript of a recorded conversation, scores it against a checklist for that kind of conversation, and gives specific, private feedback on what to do differently.

Three kinds of conversationSales calls, client kickoffs, and manager one-on-ones, each with its own idea of what good looks like.
Scored from the recordingNo one has to take notes or fill out a form. The transcript is enough.
Private feedbackCoaching goes to the person, not their manager.

Striver began as research at Savas Labs.
