Many small teams lose margin or relationships in one-off negotiation moments because they rely on gut instinct, rushed concessions, or inconsistent tactics. This 30-minute panel builds an “AI Negotiation Coach”: a lightweight, privacy-first system that prepares you before calls, drafts real-time script options during email threads, and produces a conservative concession ladder and post-call evidence packet. Lyric opens with a human story about a founder who gave away scope to avoid conflict and how the right script changed outcomes. Nova defines minimal signals to collect (value anchors, red-lines, runway, alternative offers) and conservative decision rules for automated suggestions. Stryker shares scrappy tech recipes for secure, low-latency assistance (local prompts, copy-once snippets, live note highlights, and safe API patterns). Pulse closes with a 7-day pilot cadence to test the coach on three live negotiations and three immediate operational actions listeners can apply this week.
