Generate Your Horror Story

Answer honestly about your current setup

It Won’t Happen to Us… Until It Does

Every infrastructure disaster story starts the same way:

“We knew we should have set up monitoring/backups/security… but we were busy shipping features. We’d get to it next sprint.”

Then Friday at 4:47 PM hits. And everything breaks.

What This Tool Does

Answer 4 questions about your infrastructure setup, and we’ll generate:

  1. Your Horror Scenario: A realistic disaster based on your actual gaps
  2. Probability Score: How likely this is to happen
  3. Financial Impact: Lost revenue, customers, and time
  4. Prevention Cost: What it would take to prevent this
  5. The Math: Why prevention is always cheaper

Real Horror Stories (These Actually Happened)

Why Generate Your Horror Story?

Because seeing is believing.

When you read a scenario customized to your business with:

  • Your revenue numbers
  • Your customer count
  • Your team size
  • Your actual infrastructure gaps

…it becomes real. And preventing it becomes urgent.

Who Needs This Wake-Up Call

  • Founders who keep putting off infrastructure work
  • CTOs who need to convince leadership to invest in reliability
  • Finance teams who think infrastructure is “just a cost”
  • Anyone with the nagging feeling “we should really fix that”

The Pattern

Every infrastructure disaster follows the same pattern:

  1. “We’ll fix it later” - Backlog builds up
  2. “It’s working fine” - False sense of security
  3. “Oh no” - The disaster hits
  4. “Why didn’t we…” - Regret and emergency fixes

Don’t be that story. Use the generator, see your risk, and fix it before it’s too late.

Prevention vs Recovery

Prevention cost: €2,000/month for managed infrastructure Recovery cost: €50,000 - €2,300,000+ in lost revenue, customers, and emergency fixes

The math is clear. Prevention always wins.
