From Inspiration to Implementation.
Collaboratively capture, evaluate, and realize ideas with AnyIdea Ideation. Say goodbye to scattered emails and spreadsheets. Collect, structure, and evaluate ideas in one intuitive digital platform.
1. Start: Define your topic
One platform for every challenge.
Whether you need solutions for high-level strategic goals, concrete answers for specific problems, or a continuous flow of improvements (CIP/KVP) - AnyIdea supports you in every use case.
Make use of Idea campaigns for the following purposes:
Targeted (Strategic):
- “How can we use AI in our customer service? ”
- “New business models for the circular economy. ”
- “Trends in the urban mobility sector: What does that mean for us? ”
- “Startup Call: Who has the best solution for energy efficiency?”
Project-based (concrete):
- “Finding a name for the new product X”
- “Reducing plastic consumption in the canteen. ”
- “Creative measures for the company anniversary. ”
Open campaign (permanent):
- “Digital idea box: Your suggestions for our everyday work. ”
- “KVP (Continuous Improvement Process) — Safety in the workplace. ”
💡 Tip: The low-threshold campaign
Start by creating a campaign that is appealing and simple for many users. This is how you achieve a high level of participation and your users experience how easy and interactive AnyIdea is.
Example: “Ideas & Prizes” — Ask: “What profits would you like to receive if your idea wins? ”
Anyone can take part in this campaign. You will receive a bulging basket of desired prizes that you can use to inspire your users in the future.
💡 Tip: Launch campaigns directly from future trends and opportunities.
Turn trends, signals, or opportunities from AnyIdea Foresight into an idea campaign with just one click. In this way, you can collect targeted ideas that provide concrete answers to tomorrow's trends.
2. AI as a driving force
Have you created an idea campaign? This is how you get your first ideas in just a few clicks:
Simply click on the “Generate ideas” button, formulate your question (e.g. “How do we get young people excited about offline shopping? ”) and let yourself be immediately generated with creative impulses.
3. Open Innovation — Use Crowd Intelligence
