Hosted or self-hosted

Hosted: sign in at https://app.familydrill.com/login. After you verify your email, you'll land on your install code. No app deployment or email-provider setup is required.

Self-hosted: clone the repository, run the app on your own domain, and connect your own email service when you are ready to move beyond the included console-only mail adapter.

Practice, not phishing

Every drill uses a fictional organization, never a real brand or sender identity.

A reveal teaches the clues and never harvests credentials, financial details, or other secrets.

Bot builders: see docs/bot-api.md in the repository.
