Your first production incident shouldn't be your worst one.
Most engineers and technical founders get paged cold with zero prior experience handling a real incident. Reading runbooks doesn't build on-call instincts. YouBrokeProd drops you into realistic incident simulations so when the real page comes in at 3 AM, you've already been there.
On-Call Skills That Actually Stick
10+ scenarios across beginner, intermediate, and advanced. New ones every 2 weeks.
How It Works
Each scenario is a real-time simulation running in your browser. No setup. Just you, a terminal, and a production incident to solve.
1
Get Paged
Pick a scenario and difficulty. You get a briefing with symptoms, a simulated terminal, and a ticking clock.
2
Investigate
Run real commands in the terminal - check logs, query metrics, inspect configs. Built-in hints if you get stuck.
3
Diagnose & Fix
Submit your root cause diagnosis, then apply the fix command. Scored on speed, accuracy, and efficiency.
4
Debrief
See what you got right, what you missed, and the optimal diagnostic path. Compare your score on the leaderboard.
On-call training for your whole team?
Run the same incident simulation across your SRE, platform, or founding engineering team. Compare scores, identify skill gaps, reduce MTTR, and build shared muscle memory for when the real pages come in. Manager reports and team leaderboards included.
