Built for Indian B-school classrooms — by a practising supply chain planner.
Run the sim
Ten frameworks. One spine.
From newsvendor to bullwhip — each simulation is a real business situation you play through in minutes.
Platform philosophy
One spine.
Ten designs.
Every simulation shares the same platform spine — tokens, shell, motion, results flow. The designs are the games. Swap one variable and the whole surface transforms.

Bullwhip Effect
A doubled retailer order. Real demand? Phantom signal? Your call drives the whole chain.

Get coached
Every run ends with a coach debrief.
After you score, AI reads your decisions and explains what you did, why it mattered, and what you'd change next time.
Pick a simulation
Choose from a growing catalog of scenarios across procurement, logistics, demand planning, negotiation, and more.
Make real decisions
Each round, you face the same trade-offs real managers face — incomplete information, tight budgets, competing priorities.
See the results
Watch how your choices ripple through the system. Score points, spot patterns, and understand what you'd do differently.
Climb the leaderboard

Inside the coach debrief
What you'll learn from every run.
After you score, the AI coach reads your decisions and explains what you did, why it mattered, and what you'd change next time — tied to the framework you just played.
Concept · Information sharing
- You ramped orders 2× on a single retailer spike — classic bullwhip amplification.
- Safety stock stayed flat while upstream variance doubled.
- Sharing point-of-sale data would have cut your over-order by ~30%.

FAQ
Common questions.
Everything you need to know before you start.
Is StratEngine free?
Yes — you can sign up and play simulations for free. Additional tiers and features may be introduced over time, but core access is free to start.
Do I need a supply chain background?
Not at all. Simulations start at the Analyst level and are designed to teach from scratch. If you've taken a basic operations or economics course, you'll feel right at home.
How long does each simulation take?
Most simulations take 20–40 minutes for a first run. You can replay them to improve your score and try different strategies.
Can professors use StratEngine in class?
Yes. Create a class, share your access code, and students join at signup. Assign any simulator — each run scores them and generates an AI coach debrief. Faculty see class members' simulator bests on the dashboard. Use the For educators section or footer to request a demo.
What disciplines does StratEngine cover?
Currently: Procurement, Logistics, Demand Management, Negotiation, and Global Operations. More are being added based on user feedback.
How is my skill tier determined?
