Brainstorm solutions

Your Team’s Brainstorming Concierge.

BrainstormingBot makes brainstorming sessions productive, organized, and fun. It allows everyone to contribute their ideas in real-time, without interruptions.

Reduce Meetings

Maximise your employees' focus time. Synchronous meetings split your day in multiple smaller sections, disturbing uninterrupted time. Take your brainstorming meetings asynchronous and give your team productive hours back for focused, high-impact work.

Find The Best Ideas

When everyone is in one room, some people are just more vocal than others. They defend their ideas more passionately. Written ideas, anonymous and for everyone to see, allow team members to form their own opinions and for the best ideas to win.

Stay Inside Slack

No need to switch tools every time you to have a meeting. Spend less time preparing brainstorming sessions and more time finding solutions. This Slack bot is ready when you are.

Find the best ideas, remotely.

Developer and Creator

52% of global employees now work remotely at least once a week.

And while we use Slack more than ever, some things have become harder. There's just something about being together in a room and finding the answers together.

Companies make two errors which become more pressing over time:

  1. Just taking all meetings online, without revisiting the way they're done
  2. Not using new, digital tools for their workflows

That's why I've built BrainstormingBot — to not only take existing meetings online, but to leverage technology and make remote collaboration digital-native.

Now I'm releasing BrainstormingBot to the public. I'd love for you to give it a try.
