Licencing
All you can eat
An annual subscription allows you to run as many exercises as you like, all year long. The cap on participants is purely a commercial limit and if you need more players in your exercise, just ask and we’ll provide a custom quote.
Each licence offers a step-up in functionality designed to suit different levels of ambition and realism.

Dove
Entry-level licence for immersive training. Dove is the base package and includes everything you need to run immersive crisis simulations and is best suited to scripted exercises because it lacks the live exercise features of the other licences.
Raven
Realistic on-demand content publishing. Raven provides all of the Dove features plus enhancements for greater productivity and realism.
Hawk
Participant exploration and role-playing. Hawk includes all the features of Raven plus enhancements providing participants with greater freedom to act as they would in real life.
Osprey
Osprey is for full simulation of the information environment with maximum flexibility during live exercises to adapt to player actions. Includes outstanding features like InfoMap and Social Watch for enhanced OSINT and social listening capabilities.

| Player Tools | Dove | Raven | Hawk | Osprey |

||||
| Pulse Allows observer comments to be recorded on any content and checklist item live while exercises is running. Results are send in exported data and after-action review report. Greater visibility of how players are performing during a live exercise. Can be used to provide a Common Operating Picture (COP) for the information environment. |
||||
| Assessment Toolkit - Paid Add-on (see below) This feature available for all team licences (excludes Colibri) but is a paid enhancement to allow human observers to make quantitative assessments about the behaviour of the training audience. Exercise designers can design own schema of observable behaviours and how these map to capabilities. Results are shown as a radar diagram to easily visualise expected capability to actual performance. |
| Exercise Control | Dove | Raven | Hawk | Osprey |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Master Events List Injects are published according to the time set by the exercise designer. Publication can be paused and fast-forwarded by the facilitator during the exercise. |
