Overview of CrowdInsights projects

Four components for effective participation.

We combine powerful methodology and smart technology. We run the analysis and help you  create space for reflection and learning.

Running the project

With our thorough method, the Insights-Process, we structure your challenges and set up a neat and smart project plan. Our shared goal: gaining new insights by leveraging the knowledge of your crowd.

Providing Software (Cloud SaaS)

Our platform serves as digital infrastructure for participation and co-creation that strives for new insights. You get your own website in your individual look & feel, accessible via your  preferred domain.

Analyzing your answers

Having collected dozens or hundreds of answers, we run the analysis and gain brand new insights for you. We benefit from the assistance of your participants who can participate in the analysis, supported by a nuanced AI-human interaction algorithm. We call this crowd analysis.

Facilitating

We are experts in creating formats  that make your stakeholders share their best advice. We usually combine digital and on premise formats to address the various target groups and play with depth and range.

Let’s talk!

We love to chat about tricky challenges, socially relevant decisions or great visions while having a good cup of coffee.

Our rigorous and method helps us master your challenges based on the advice of your own crowd.

We rely on the powerful and effective method and framework: the  Insights Process. The Insights Process enables us to structure our challenges creating a lean plan that outlines how we deploy participation in your project.  The goal: We use the knowledge of your crowd and gain new insights. You make better decisions and increase acceptance.

The Insights Process is a framework for effective  participation and co-creation from the principle of the “wisdom of crowds”. In doing so, we use methods of problem structuring established in research and consulting and achieve new insights through the aggregation of qualitative information.

Testimonials

That’s what our customers say.

With the assistance of CrowdInsights, we were able to efficiently and effectively incorporate the comprehensive know-how of the experts in the creation of the list of demands. Due to the positive feedback within our organisation, I can easily imagine using the tool for other decision-making processes in the future!

Dr. Kirsten WitteDirector / Bertelsmann Stiftung

When Covid first moved across the country, we needed to facilitate ad-hoc discussions with SMEs completely digitally. With CrowdInsights, this was immediately feasible in high quality. This modern platform solution not only pleased us, but especially the Federal Ministry.

Heiko WieseManaging Director / No Drama Strategies Consulting

From citizens' councils to public engagement processes, CrowdInsights offers a simple and effective solution to engage citizens in a meaningful way. We like the fact that larger and smaller municipalities can use the platform by themselves and gain useful insights through the contributions of their citizens.
