Step inside a company.

VYRNA is a work simulation platform that puts you on mandates drawn from real work. Colleagues email you, documents pile up, deadlines are real, and you decide when your deliverable is ready.

The real world of work, without the risk of losing your job.

  • Free during the beta
  • At your own pace, within a 30-day window
  • Solo or as a team

BRUME is a company invented to illustrate this site. In VYRNA, every mandate has its own fictional company, documents and colleagues.

Between theory and your first job, something’s missing: practice.

  • In schoolYou learn the frameworks, the models and the vocabulary of the trade.
  • In interviewsThey ask what you’ve actually done, and in what context.
  • On VYRNAYou make real decisions in a company that keeps moving, and you keep proof of your work.

What makes VYRNA different

Every company has a story.

Each company has a past, people, wins and mistakes. Its mandates unfold over time, like a real career: what gets decided in one mandate becomes the starting point for the next.

  1. 2024

    Open the patio

    The park-side patio becomes BRUME’s most profitable spot.

  2. 2025

    Launch coffee to go

    The patio’s regulars become the starting point for a new offer.

  3. 2026

    Open in Québec City

    A first location outside Montréal, built on everything BRUME has learned.

  • A real industry

    Each company operates in a real sector, with its customers, competitors, seasonality and constraints.

  • A company profile and a data room

    Studies, sales figures, plans, internal memos: the company’s whole file, from day one.

  • Not everything is written down

    Some information only comes out when you ask the right person the right question.

  • Colleagues can be wrong

    With the best intentions, someone may pass you outdated information. It’s up to you to check your sources and cross-reference what you learn.

  • Mandates that build on each other

    You return to a company you already know, with more responsibility: from coordinator to specialist, then director.

  • Curveballs you can’t control

    A late supplier, a revised budget: just like at work, they land in a plain message. You adapt.

The real world of work. Without the risk of losing your job for lack of experience.

Why VYRNA

A mandate, from the first email to the debrief.

  1. 1

    You take the mandate

    A role, a company, a goal, and deliverables that unlock one at a time.

  2. 2

    You dig in and ask questions

    The data room, the onboarding guide, and your colleagues: some know more than what’s written down.

  3. 3

    You deliver, they react

    Each according to their priorities. You defend your choice or write a new version. You decide when it’s final.

  4. 4

    You compare, no grades

    You see what the company decided, why, and what a good question would have unlocked.

Portfolio

Let your work speak for you.

Every completed mandate becomes proof: the skills your decisions demonstrated, your reflections and your end-of-mandate badge. Share it with your network or with a recruiter.

  • Proven skills, backed by the decisions you made, not just listed.
  • Protected deliverables: a temporary, watermarked recruiter link that doesn’t give the mandate away.
  • A page with your name on it, added to LinkedIn in one click.
  • Concrete examples to talk about in interviews.

Community

The Feed is the real part.

On the Feed, you talk with real members: students, graduates, professionals and industry experts. You ask for a method, never for the answer.

  • Ask for feedback on your approach, and weigh in on other people’s.
  • Share your tips and run quick polls with your peers.
  • Find teammates to take on a mandate together.
  • Get known: other members recognize your helpful answers.

Just like at work, nothing internal leaves a mandate: no company details, no figures, no documents.

Challenges

The only place we keep score.

A fresh topic, a time limit, a single submission. It’s the only place on VYRNA where your work is evaluated, with detailed feedback on what you submitted.

For anyone who wants to practice.

Whether you’re just starting out, switching paths or twenty years into your career, there’s a place for you on VYRNA.

Graduated, and ready for the interview.

You know the concepts. On VYRNA, you apply all of them in a real work environment and build the confidence a first job demands.

  • Concrete situations to talk about in interviews
  • Decisions you can explain
  • A portfolio to attach to your applications
“Tell me about a tough decision.” This time, you have an answer.

Every answer about mandates, the portfolio, the beta and organizations.

What is VYRNA?

VYRNA is an app where you take on realistic professional mandates inside fictional companies. Colleagues email you, documents are waiting, deadlines are set, and you produce real deliverables. At the end, you compare your decisions with the company’s and keep proof of your work in your portfolio.

Are the colleagues real people?

No. The colleagues in a mandate are fictional characters with a role, a personality and a memory, powered by AI. They answer according to their priorities and may know more than what’s written down. The community, on the other hand, is made of real members.

Is it free?

Yes, during the beta. A premium plan will follow, and founding members will get a founding rate.

How long does a mandate take?

Each mandate shows its own estimated time, based on its scope. It’s a guide, not a limit: you work at your own pace within a 30-day window.

Is my mandate graded?

No. A mandate has no grade and no score. At the end, you compare your decisions with the company’s and see why it decided the way it did. Only challenges are evaluated.

Can my school have its own mandates?

Yes. VYRNA builds custom mandates for colleges and universities, reserved for their students.
