Practice CCFP SOOs face to face with a video patient.
Camera on, both of you, for a full 15 minutes. The AI plays the patient and you play the doctor: doorway prompt, hidden second issue, management plan. Then you get back a structured report scored against the official CFPC 11-component rubric.
Every case is built on a CFPC priority topic and reviewed by recent family medicine graduates (physicians who sat this exam recently enough to remember how it actually runs) before it reaches the library.
One free full-length encounter. No card required. After that, stations are bought one credit at a time and each credit is valid for 90 days. We currently support one SOO station at a time.

Mrs. Chen is here for her 3-month diabetes review. She mentioned to the MOA that her husband passed away 6 weeks ago. Please see the patient.
Built for the real exam, not a generic chatbot.
Live video, not audio or text
You are on camera and so is the patient. Eye contact, facial cues, and body language are all in play, matching the actual virtual SOO exam, and they show up in the report afterwards. Typing into a chat box or talking to a voice misses the half of the encounter the rubric spends the most language on.
80 cases, reviewed by recent FM grads
Built around the CFPC priority topics most commonly tested on SOOs: chronic disease, mental health, women’s health, geriatrics, and complex psychosocial scenarios. Every case is read line by line by recent family medicine graduates (the doorway prompt, what the patient reveals and when, and the marking criteria), and only reaches the library once it passes. Random selection avoids repeats.
Automated CFPC-aligned feedback
Your encounter is scored across the official 11-component rubric: history coverage, illness experience, social context, management, finding common ground, and interview process. Specific verbal and non-verbal observations, not generic encouragement.
Your report in about 90 seconds
You do not wait a week for a preceptor to get back to you. The encounter ends and roughly 90 seconds later the report is there: a Superior / Certificant / Non-Certificant rating on each of the 11 components, grounded in your own transcript, while you still remember what you said and why.
Mirrors the real CCFP exam timing.
You see the doorway, you walk in, you have 15 minutes.
Read the doorway prompt
You get 1 minute at the door to read the patient card and form your approach, the same window you get on the real exam.
Run the 15-minute encounter
Walk into the video encounter and meet the patient face to face, camera on, the way the virtual exam runs. Take a focused history, uncover the hidden second issue, explore the social context, and negotiate a management plan. The patient flags the second issue around the 5-minute mark if you haven’t found it yet, and stops volunteering new information at 12 minutes.
Get an automated CFPC-style report
Within ~90 seconds you get a Superior / Certificant / Non-Certificant rating on each of the 11 components, specific feedback grounded in your transcript, and a side-by-side comparison with the expected approach.
Scored on what the real examiners look for
The CCFP SOO is scored using 6 marking boxes containing 11 individual components. Each is graded on a 3-level scale published by the CFPC.
Goes beyond competent. Actively explores the illness experience with verbal and non-verbal skill, and purposefully involves the patient in the plan.
The pass standard. Inquires appropriately, demonstrates flexibility, and arrives at a satisfactory understanding of the patient.
Below the pass mark. Often signals checklist-style questioning, missed cues, or failing to involve the patient in management.
