What is Crucible?
Crucible is an advanced quarterback training platform that builds the mental side of the game. It combines a realistic QB simulator app for athletes with a browser-based analytics platform for Player Managers. With unlimited virtual reps, AI-driven insights, and tools for coaching and feedback, Crucible helps quarterbacks and Player Managers prepare to win.
Who is Crucible for?
Crucible is built for quarterbacks, Player Managers, and teams. Quarterbacks can train independently and measure progress. Player Managers, including private coaches, camps, and those running quarterback development businesses, can oversee athletes, assign reps, and track readiness. Teams and programs can manage entire rosters, organize group training, and evaluate player performance at scale.
What makes Crucible different from other QB training tools?
Crucible focuses on decision-making and mental performance, not just physical reps. The platform simulates realistic in-game scenarios that help quarterbacks process faster, read defenses, and build confidence under pressure.
Is Crucible available on mobile?
Yes. The QB simulator runs on mobile devices, and the management dashboard is accessible through any modern web browser.
Can parents use Crucible?
Yes. Parents can sign up with a free Player Manager account to follow their athlete’s development, view performance data, and understand how their quarterback is improving.
How does Crucible help me improve?
Crucible gives you unlimited mental reps that mirror real-game situations. You’ll make reads, process coverage, and build confidence through repetition. Your results are analyzed with AI-driven insights that show where you excel and where to focus your work.
Can I use Crucible without a coach or Player Manager?
Yes. You can train independently, run simulations, and review your data through the app. If a Player Manager later connects with you, your progress and stats carry over.
Can I track my progress?
Yes. Crucible automatically tracks your stats, reps, and milestones. You can review your growth over time and see where to focus next.
What’s included in the free trial?
The free trial gives you full access to Premium+. You can run simulations, view advanced analytics, and use the Stats Dashboard. You can start with a one-day trial without a credit card or choose a three-day trial with a credit card. If you choose the three-day option, billing begins automatically at the end of the trial unless you cancel.
How do I share my data with a coach or Player Manager?
You can accept an access request or share your profile from inside the app. You control who sees your data and can revoke access at any time.
Can I have more than one Player Manager connected?
Yes. You can approve up to 2 Player Managers if paying for your own Crucible subscription. Access is managed in your account settings.
What is a Player Manager?
A Player Manager is anyone who oversees quarterbacks in Crucible. This includes private coaches, trainers, parents, camps, and operators of quarterback development businesses.
How does the Player Manager system work?
You can connect with athletes who already use Crucible or provide Crucible directly by purchasing seats for your athletes. Both paths allow you to assign reps, review analytics, and manage multiple quarterbacks from one dashboard.
Can I run my training business on Crucible?
Yes. You can package Crucible access into your training offerings, invite athletes, assign Sims, track progress, and report on readiness from one dashboard. The system scales from individual coaching businesses to full academies. You can purchase seats in bulk, add your athletes, and set your own pricing for the access you provide. This gives you complete control over your client relationships and creates a new revenue stream while keeping your athletes’ data private to your organization.
Can Crucible align with our playbook and terminology?
Yes. Teams can create custom Sims that mirror their offensive system. You can build scenarios using your own formations, reads, and install structure so quarterbacks take mental reps in the same environment they’ll see on game day.
Can we compare quarterbacks side by side?
Yes. Team dashboards include comparative views across athletes, showing reaction time, coverage recognition, decision accuracy, and overall Crucible Sim Score (CSS). You can instantly see who is processing fastest, who is trending up, and where performance gaps exist across your roster.
Can Crucible support high school and youth programs?
Yes. Crucible scales to any level. High schools and youth programs use it to bring structure to quarterback development, track growth over a season, and build consistency across coaches. The same analytics tools used by advanced programs are available to all teams.
Can we integrate Crucible data with other systems?
Integration support is expanding. Teams interested in syncing Crucible data with film, analytics, or recruiting tools can contact partnerships@crucible.com for the latest capabilities.
How does Crucible help teams win more games?
Crucible turns mental preparation into measurable data. Coaches gain visibility into how quickly quarterbacks process information, how accurately they read defenses, and how confident they are under pressure. The result is smarter reps, better decisions, and greater readiness on game day.
What types of simulations does Crucible offer?
Crucible offers a wide range of simulations within the QB simulator app that replicate real-game scenarios. These include various defensive formations, blitz packages, and situational plays designed to challenge and develop your decision-making skills under pressure.
Are the learning modules regularly updated?
Yes, our team continuously updates the learning modules to reflect the latest strategies and insights in football. This ensures that you have access to current information and techniques to stay ahead of the game.
