Immersive incident response training

Practice for the worst. Perform at your best.

There are two ways to learn incident response expertise: real incidents and Uptime Labs. The first option is expensive & painful.

Trusted by teams building world-class incident response:

How it works

step 01

Get Started in Seconds

Log into our web-based application (no integration needed).
step 02

Run the Incident Drill Live

Your team responds in real time.

step 03

Reflect & Debrief

After the drill, review what happened.

step 04

Improve & Repeat

Run new scenarios. Track progress. Build confidence across the team.
step 05 - optional

Add Certification

Certification proves internal expertise & provides external confidence.

Tabletops vs. Uptime Labs’ Training Simulations

We remove everything that makes traditional tabletops difficult and focus on building the skills that matter.

Uptime Labs makes your team actually do it.
Traditional Tabletops
Uptime Labs
Passive, discussion-based
Expert designed scenarios based on real life incidents
Theoretical – does not feel real
Highly realistic - replicating real-world pressure & decision-making
Heavy manual effort
No organisation needed - log in and play
Infrequent
Run continuously
High and variable cost
Set price per user
Anecdotal and subjective insight
Objective analytics at individual and team level
Rarely measured or improved TTR
Measured and systematically reduced TTR
Low learning retention
High through experiential learning

Platform & Reliability Teams
AI is changing what it means to be an engineer. As automation handles more routine tasks, the skills that define great incident responders are increasingly human: clear communication, difficult trade-off decisions and an innate understanding of how complex systems fail.
Uptime Labs develops those skills, helping responders tackle what AI can’t.

Testimonials

“What impresses me most about Uptime Labs is how genuinely lifelike its simulations feel and how quickly they translate into measurable growth.”

Technical Incident Manager, nvidia

You can't control incidents. But you can control how prepared your team is.
