Product brief
This page summarizes what Crisis Input delivers in an exercise: the simulated channels participants operate in, the orchestration layer facilitators control, and the evidence you can export for debriefs and audit needs.
What participants experience
- Simulated news outlets (scheduled publications, breaking news, live event updates)
- Squawk social media simulation (posts, interactions, narrative escalation)
- Internal corporate email (mailboxes, drafts/sends, attachments)
- Corporate site surfaces (company pages: documents, teams, timelines)
- Live TV stream with breaking-news video injections (HLS)
What facilitators control
- Scenario structure (phases, pressure levels, simulation speed)
- Inject templates reusable across channels (news, social, mail, TV, stakeholder reactions)
- Conditional triggers (time-elapsed, inaction, decision made, phase change, thresholds, manual)
- Scenario cloning to reuse and adapt exercises quickly
Evidence and debrief deliverables
- Unified, timestamped exercise timeline across channels
- Evaluation grids with weighted criteria (customizable)
- Automated KPI metrics (e.g., detection/reaction times, task completion, media pressure)
- Exports for reporting and audit workflows (scenario exports, evaluation data, logs)
AI options (human-in-the-loop)
Crisis Input supports multiple AI providers for generating scenario materials, including offline/local generation options for controlled environments. Generated content is reviewed before it is used in exercises.
Deployment and integration
- Self-hosted deployment model (Docker-based stack)
- REST API with OpenAPI/Swagger docs for integrations
