My shortlist

If I were evaluating solutions specifically for gamified cold-calling training with AI avatars, I'd start with these three:

Attensi RealTalk

The first to investigate if game-like experiences and immersive virtual-human simulations are central to your requirements.

Synthesia Roleplay Sessions

A strong candidate if visible, lifelike avatars, cold-call practice, and consistent coaching scores matter most.

Sparring

Worth investigating if you want explicit game mechanics such as levels, achievements, escalating difficulty, and certification.

One important distinction: AI avatars, gamification, and cold-call simulation are three separate capabilities. A vendor may offer excellent roleplay without offering leaderboards, points, badges, or competitive team challenges. Confirm those mechanics during a demo rather than assuming they're included.

Are you looking for software primarily for SDR/BDR cold-calling practice, or a broader sales-training platform with levels, points, leaderboards, and competitions? That distinction would help narrow the list considerably.
