About Us

Muzzy Lane helps universities create assessments for the AI era. Our roleplay assessments let students apply knowledge in realistic scenarios, measuring what they can do—not just what they know. Learners receive instant, personalized feedback, while our Production Assistant makes it easy to build custom assessments aligned with your courses and objectives. With Muzzy Lane, authentic learning and assessment are no longer out of reach—they’re practical, scalable, and available across your curriculum.

The Practice line of simulations brought active learning to college classrooms. Practice Marketing was the first title released, followed by Operations Management, American Government, Spanish, and Medical Office. Students describe their experience as a "virtual internship".
