Berlin, 16th October 2024
A leading digital agency is launching its cutting-edge AI-powered training simulator, COSMART AVA, at the 14th Annual Sales Force Effectiveness and Digital Marketing in Pharma Summit in Berlin. COSMART AVA is designed to address a major challenge in the pharmaceutical industry: enhancing the effectiveness of medical representatives (MRs) in a highly competitive and regulated environment.
Medical representatives face challenges such as delivering complex medical information and overcoming objections during brief interactions with busy healthcare professionals (HCPs). These challenges can significantly affect sales performance and revenue.
AVA: The AI-Powered Solution for Commercial Excellence
COSMART AVA is part of Vivanti’s COSMART suite, a collection of AI-driven tools designed to drive commercial excellence.
AVA equips medical representatives with essential skills, including the ability to communicate critical product knowledge, handle objections, and deliver key messages effectively during their limited time with healthcare professionals. Using COSMART AVA, MRs will be better prepared to engage HCPs, build stronger relationships, and ultimately, drive improved sales performance.
Benefits for Commercial Excellence Managers:
- Pharma-Driven Training Library: Ensures simulations aligns with the company’s protocols and product knowledge, leading to more consistent messaging and strategy execution across the team.
- Customisable Training Scenarios: Managers can tailor scenarios to target specific training needs, as well as levels of difficulty – ensuring that the simulation is relevant and effective for their team’s development.
- Product Portfolio Management: Allows managers to keep field force materials up-to-date with the latest product information, ensuring MRs are always prepared with accurate details.
- Performance Transparency: AVA’s robust analytics provide Commercial Excellence Managers with real-time insights into MR performance, enabling data-driven decisions to enhance training and field effectiveness.
Benefits for Medical Representatives (MRs):
- Dynamic Interaction: AVA’s ability to adjust its behaviour based on MR performance creates an engaging, real-world training environment that enhances learning.
- Customisable Scenarios: Tailored training scenarios allow MRs to practice in situations that are directly relevant to their specific field, making the training highly applicable and effective.
- Emotional Intelligence Training: Developing emotional intelligence helps MRs improve their interactions with healthcare professionals, leading to more successful engagements.
- Impactful Communication Feedback: Immediate, actionable feedback on communication techniques empowers MRs to refine their approach and improve their persuasive skills.

- Memorisation of Visit Scenarios: MRs demonstrated a 58% improvement in their ability to remember details of their visit scenarios.
- Enhanced Product Knowledge: There was a 60% increase in MRs’ product knowledge, ensuring they are well-prepared to discuss and promote their products effectively.
- Improved Communication Skills: MRs experienced a 65% improvement in communication skills, enabling them to engage more persuasively and confidently with HCPs.
