Welcome to the Ken Beta

Meet Ken

Ken is a 33-year-old construction worker who talks in a direct, everyday way. He’s not sure about taking his medication, so sometimes he’s open to talking, and other times he may get irritated—especially if he feels pushed.

How Ken Will React

  • Realistic Reactions: He can be blunt or unsure, giving you a chance to practice responding to a “real person” without any risk.

  • If you’re supportive or listen carefully, Ken might share more about how he feels.

  • If you push too hard or ignore what he’s saying, he can sound annoyed or shut down quickly. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest.
