Rehearse a campaign

Run simulated conversations with your campaign’s persona before you call real people, read the pass rate, and accept a suggested fix as a new version.

A rehearsal runs the campaign’s persona, script and research against a simulated target several times, in the background. No call is placed. It tells you how often the caller got what it wanted, and lets you read each practice conversation.

The Rehearse this campaign card only appears when your workspace’s voice engine is set to ElevenLabs Agents. DeepBlocker sets the voice engine for your workspace. If the card is missing, the test call still works for every workspace.

Rehearsal or test call?

	Test call	Rehearsal
Who answers	You, in your browser	A simulated target

Where	The campaign’s test call page	The campaign page

​

Before you start

• A campaign whose attacker has a cloned voice and a script. The card says: “To rehearse, this campaign needs a persona with a cloned voice and a script (its pretext). Add those, then rehearse.”
• Any campaign status will do. A rehearsal of a finished campaign that you then improve becomes a new draft.

​

Steps

1. Open the campaign

   Open Red Team, Campaigns, then the campaign. Scroll to the card Rehearse this campaign. It reads: “Run a few simulated conversations with this campaign’s persona, story and research before you call real people, to see how often it gets what it wants. No call is placed.”

2. Start the rehearsal

   Click Rehearse campaign. The button reads Starting…, then Rehearsing… while the runs complete. The card refreshes itself every few seconds and shows Rehearsing 2/5… as it goes.

   Talk to it live next to it opens the test call instead.

3. Read the result

   When it finishes, a badge shows Worked N%, with the line Got what it wanted in X of Y practice calls. The badge is green at 100%, amber from 80%, and red below that. Open a run to read its transcript and the criteria it was scored on.

4. Accept a fix, if you want one

   When the caller fell short on at least one run, Suggest a fix appears: “Read the failed runs and rewrite the script to work better.” Click it. Under Suggested improvement you get a short diagnosis, the list of changes, and the Proposed script (edit if you like).

   Click Accept and save as new version to keep it, or Discard. Accepting saves a new version of the campaign and reloads the page. See Campaign versions.

​

What happens next

The rehearsal result stays on the campaign page until you run another. Rehearse again after any change to the script. When you are happy, launch as usual. See Authorise and launch.

​

Problems

There is no Rehearse this campaign card

Your workspace’s voice engine is not ElevenLabs Agents. Use the test call instead, or ask us about the voice engine. See Support and contact.

Rehearse campaign is grey

The campaign’s attacker has no cloned voice, or the campaign has no script. Add both, then reload. See Create an attacker.

It says This campaign has no persona to rehearse

The campaign has no attacker. Edit the campaign and pick one under Who calls.

It says Could not finish

One or more runs failed on the simulation side. Click Rehearse campaign again. If it keeps failing, write to us with the campaign name.
