What’s Next: Our 12-Month Vision for Pxl-Persona

Over the last year, Pxl-Persona has grown from a working prototype into a flexible, impactful tool used by schools, educators, researchers, and training providers across the UK.

From interview preparation and mental health simulations to museum guides for young learners, our avatars are now supporting real people in real contexts — and this is just the beginning.

We want your feedback and input to make this the best application it can be for people from all walks of life - get in touch to have your say in the development

Here’s a look at where we are today, and what’s coming next.

What’s Live Today

Pxl-Persona is already being used by:

• Schools across the Liverpool City Region

• Nurse training providers preparing students for NHS roles

• Young people exploring careers in games, IT, construction and more

Key features already in use include:

• Pixel Streaming delivery to any device, with no installations

• RAG-backed avatars that hold intelligent, informed conversations

• Custom voices and accents tailored to specific audiences

• Interview scenarios with session feedback, sentiment tracking, and suggested answers

• SEND-ready design to support students with diverse needs

• Real-time avatar response loop using speech, LLMs, and custom animation pipelines

• Museum avatars with child-friendly voices and environments (Viking, Dinosaur, Astronaut)

What’s Launching Soon

Over the next phase, we’re releasing new capabilities and content focused on difficult conversations — across interviews, mental health, and personal development.

These include:

• Walkthrough and demo videos to help teachers, careers advisors and students get started

• Expanded avatar library for diverse interview situations — including roles in games, sales, IT, construction and more

• Emotionally complex avatars for training conversations around mental health, career doubt, workplace confidence, and resilience

• Improved session feedback and summaries, with clearer reports for staff and learners

• Analytics dashboards for education partners to track usage and identify areas of improvement

• Rollout to 30+ schools across the Liverpool City Region, with focus on careers guidance and SEND support

What’s in Development (6–12 Months)

Behind the scenes, our team is working on major platform enhancements designed for scale, accessibility, and long-term impact:

• Secure cloud-based user accounts, with safe session storage and multi-device access

• Performance tracking per learner, helping teachers and careers staff see progress over time

• AI-powered analytics, including most-asked questions, confidence trends, and suggested learning goals

• Voice and speech analysis, tracking hesitations, tone, and speaking clarity

• Organisation portals, so schools and employers can manage users, avatars and reporting

• Avatar builder toolkit, allowing clients to define tone, backstory, knowledge base, and voice for new roles

• Multilingual support and accessibility improvements for inclusive delivery
