Idea management software, with AI
Idea management software that ranks every idea against your strategy
Your people submit ideas, AI expands, merges and scores them on impact, cost, risk and fit with your goals, and the best ones move to a decision. Try it on your own company below.
The challenge board
One question, the whole company, a ranked shortlist
Every idea shows its score, the stage it is in and the theme it belongs to. Open any of them to see the AI proposal, the score per goal and every decision made about it.

How could we cut the time a new customer needs to go live from six weeks to three?
What the AI does
The slow parts of an idea program, done in minutes
Expand
Two lines from an employee become a proposal: problem, solution, first step, success measure.
Merge
Near duplicates are found without anyone reading all 200 ideas, and merged with authors and votes kept.
Theme
Ideas are grouped into a handful of named themes, so leadership sees the pattern, not the pile.
Score
Impact, cost, risk and fit with each of your goals, a weighted total and a written reason.
Decide
A pipeline from submitted to implemented. Every move is logged with who, when and why.
Report
A board report per challenge: ranking, themes, stage counts. Print it or download Markdown.
Workshop
Six standing perspectives attack one strategic question and hand their best ideas to a challenge.
Roles
Owner, admins who run the program and members who submit and vote. Invite by email.
Five steps, one afternoon to set up
Start your workspace-
01
Set the yardstick
Describe the company and write down up to six strategic goals. Every idea is later measured against them, so the ranking reflects your priorities, not the loudest voice.
-
02
Open a challenge
Ask the team one sharp question, set a deadline and invite people by email. AI adds starter ideas so nobody faces an empty page.
-
03
Collect and clean up
People submit in two lines. AI turns each submission into a short proposal, flags duplicates for merging and groups everything into themes.
-
04
Score against strategy
Every idea gets impact, cost, risk and fit with each goal, a weighted total and a one sentence rationale you can challenge.
-
05
Decide and follow through
Move ideas from review to shortlist, approval, delivery and done. Every move is logged with who, when and why, and the board report is one click away.
Why companies switch
Built for the program, not the meeting
Ideas from everyone, not only from the meeting room
An idea challenge runs for days, asynchronously, so the quiet engineer and the new sales hire are heard next to the managers.
A ranking you can defend in the board meeting
Scores are per criterion with written reasons, and the total is plain arithmetic on your own goal weights. Nothing is a black box.
No more idea graveyard
Every idea has a stage and an owner of the decision. People see what happened to their suggestion, which is what keeps them submitting.
Up and running the same afternoon
Sign up, pay by card, invite the team. No onboarding call, no consultants, no annual procurement cycle.
Innovation and strategy teams
Run a continuous idea program with a pipeline and reports leadership reads.
HR and people teams
Replace the suggestion box with challenges people answer and outcomes they can see.
Product teams
Turn ideas from across the company into scored candidates for the roadmap.
Operations and quality
Ask the people closest to the work how to cut cost, time and errors.

Questions
Before you start
Idea management software is a system where a company collects ideas from its people, evaluates them against clear criteria and moves the best ones to a decision. Brainstormer adds AI to the slow parts: expanding rough ideas, finding duplicates, grouping themes and scoring every idea against your strategic goals.
For every idea the AI rates impact, cost, risk and fit with each of your strategic goals on a 1 to 10 scale and writes a one sentence rationale. The total is calculated from those numbers with fixed weights and your own goal weights, so you can see exactly why an idea ranks where it does.
Everyone you invite to the workspace. Members submit and vote; the owner and admins open challenges, run the AI steps, merge duplicates and move ideas through the pipeline.
No. You can run one demo challenge on the homepage without an account, and a new workspace includes a small one-time trial: one challenge, up to 3 people and 5 AI actions. Real use needs a plan.
No. Every plan, Enterprise included, is bought by card on the billing page and active immediately. Invoices with your company details are available on Enterprise.
Yes, and yearly is half the monthly price. The pricing page shows yearly by default, with a switch to monthly.
Every paid plan exports challenges as CSV. Business adds the board report and the decision trail export, Enterprise adds a full workspace export in JSON. Your personal account data can be exported on any plan.
They stay in the challenge with the stage Rejected and the reason in the decision trail, so the author sees the outcome and the idea can be revived later.
