Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to providing virtual assistants. More specifically, various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods and systems for providing a simulation-based virtual advisor. In some embodiments, the systems and methods combine and/or integrate the functionality of a conversational virtual agent (e.g., a virtual assistant) with the functionality of a simulation virtual agent, to provide users, customers, or members with targeted, user-specific information in response to questions or other intentions posed by the users via messages exchanged between the users and the agents.
