Evidence base

Every alert traces back to a documented case file.

Nothing in CrisisIQ is invented for effect. The pressure you feel in a simulation is reconstructed from the original trigger event, regulatory filing, or press record of a real UK crisis, then scored against what actually happened next.

How the pressure is built

The case file does not talk back. Our engine makes it.

Case records document what happened, not what it felt like under pressure. CrisisIQ's engine reasons over the original evidence to reconstruct the stakeholder messages that record never captured, calibrated against the severity, timeline, and outcome of the real case.

Documented evidence, case record
trigger_event: "Regulator received 47 complaints within 72 hours of broadcast"
what_went_wrong: "No spokesperson briefed before press contact"

We've had forty-seven complaints land in two days and no one from your side has picked up the phone. Why?

Inside a simulation

Six channels. One decision window.

Every turn, CrisisIQ runs the press, the regulator, the board, legal, your own staff, and the social conversation simultaneously, the way a real crisis actually arrives.

PRESSCH.1
Quality Press, Financial desk

Our sources say internal warnings were raised eighteen months ago. Can you confirm?

REGULATORCH.2
FCA Supervision

We require written confirmation of remediation steps by close of business.

BOARDCH.3
Board Chair

I need a position before the 11am board call, not after.

LEGALCH.4
General Counsel

Any admission of fault now will be used in the enforcement notice.

INTERNALCH.5
Head of Internal Comms

Staff are asking questions on the all-hands channel. What can I tell them?

SOCIALCH.6
Social Listening

Sentiment has turned 71% negative in the last 40 minutes.

The debrief

Every decision, scored against what really happened.

When the simulation ends, you do not get a vague performance summary. You get the exact moment you diverged from the real case record, and what the regulator, the press, or the board actually did in response.

Your decision, Turn 4

"Issue a holding statement before legal sign-off."

Trust-8
Media Pressure+14
Board Confidence-11
Regulatory Risk+6
Real case outcome

The real comms team issued a near-identical holding statement. It was cited by the FCA in the final enforcement notice as evidence the firm understood the issue before acting.
