MonsoonSIM vs The Business School

MonsoonSIM is a business simulation platform for education and corporate training. Learners operate simulated enterprises across finance, operations, marketing, strategy, human capital, and sustainability. Their decisions generate data that can track progress and connect learning activities to Course Learning Outcomes. Educators can configure industries, modules, scenarios, learning objectives, outcomes, and assessment criteria. Agentic AI provides contextual guidance and supports reflection without replacing the educator. The platform supports classroom, online, blended, competition-based, and self-paced learning, and no installation is required. It is described for introductory and discipline-specific courses, capstone projects, MBA programmes, executive education, and corporate training. A free institutional trial and guided onboarding are available. The single-course education subscription is 20.00 USD once, billed at USD 20 per learner for six months, with six- or 12-month access and a fixed class size. Institution-wide access is $4,000 a year. Individual learner access is for people assigned to a course, class, or training session by an educator, facilitator, or institution.

The Business School is a browser-based classroom simulation where student teams run rival firms in a shared market during one lesson. Teams decide prices, hiring, loans, VAT, crises, and deals, with the effects visible in the simulation. Each session supports 6 to 32 students across up to eight firms of three or four. Teachers can pause or resume phases, trigger a crisis, review firm activity, and display a live leaderboard. Students join using a six-digit PIN and a team label or first name, without student accounts or email addresses. They can download private reports, while the teacher receives a curriculum-mapped class report by email within 48 hours. Knowledge Check questions are listed for 23 business courses, including AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas, WJEC, Cambridge, BTEC, and IB courses. Session data is stored in an EU database in Frankfurt; the company says it does not sell data or use it for advertising, and teachers can end a session at any time. A free teacher demo is listed. School and trust licence prices are by quote after the pilot. The Autumn 2026 pilot cohort is full, with a waitlist open.
