Someone in your organisation knew. Nobody told you.
Surveys mostly confirm what you already suspect.
What is not on the list never comes up. Free text ends up unweighted in the appendix.
Likes measure popularity.
About what matters, they say nothing.
Workshops go deep, for the twelve in the room.
Everyone else stays quiet.
Hierarchies filter a little at every level.
What reaches the top is the tame version.
Large gatherings belong to the loudest.
The best thinkers are rarely the loudest speakers.
What you do not hear shapes the decision anyway.
From a hundred people to an entire country.
No appointment. No room. No effort for you. In three weeks.
Everyone argues. Their own words, no tick boxes. Each person contributes their own ideas anonymously, including the ones that never find their way to the top.
Everyone prioritises. One click, a few seconds, a thousand times over. Each person sees two contributions in the Ideenduell and picks the stronger one.
Everyone validates. Duel by duel, the ranking takes shape. You see not only what was said, but how many see it the same way.
The result. After 21 days you know what your stakeholders really think. Solid priorities, new ideas, strong arguments.
What ends up at the top was put there by your stakeholders themselves.
Scientifically grounded · Weighted for representative statements · 100 % Swiss Made
We develop the open questions and the hypotheses behind them.
We deliver the communication that invites your people.
We moderate daily and present you the ranking.
At Medartis, nine open questions produced 1'340 ideas and arguments and 95'961 Ideenduelle. In the citizen dialogue run with 20 Minuten, «Deine Schweiz. Deine Familie.», 1'758 people took part with 111'015 Idea Duels.
You name six arguments in advance that you expect to see. If at least five new ones end up in the top 10, we have doubled your knowledge. If not, you pay nothing.
The same method, four fields of application. Your effort is three hours. We do the rest.
