Your People Know. All You Have To Do Is Ask.

Crowdcast Social BI solutions make it easy to collect and leverage the insights of your team so you can make better business decisions that are incredibly accurate.

Business intelligence now has a human side to it—Crowdcast. Our exciting application motivate your team participants to make accurate predictions about your company. As a result, you receive an analytical, real-time view into the true state of your business.

What does this mean to the success of your company? Everything. Because when you make decisions based on what your people really know, you can effectively:

  • Plan key product development milestones and launch products on time
  • Uncover external factors that reveal new business trends and opportunities
  • Save your company millions of dollars by correcting or preventing problems

Crowdcast works because everybody wins.

Typical information gathering methods —such as using surveys— don’t really engage participants because they have no vested interest in the outcome. But with Crowdcast, everyone wins:

  • Employees, partners and consultants who make the most accurate insights win rewards
  • Company leaders win by getting truer predictions on which they can make better decisions
  • Companies win because we positively reinforce the “meritocracy of ideas” that all insights are valued equally, no matter the position or title of an individual

Here’s how it works:

As a decision maker, you can easily post questions to a group of participants. These individuals can include your employees, customers and partners. Your questions can be about anything measurable—including the prediction of calendar dates, numbers (such as units, percents, and currency), and discrete outcomes, such as:

  • “When will our new product ship?”
  • “How many units will we sell in Q3?”
  • “Which supplier will we select?”

Our Social BI solution is patent-pending.

The way Crowdcast predicts outcomes is based on our patent-pending, market-based mechanism. When a new prediction comes in, the mechanism analyzes the range, the weight, and the participant’s total portfolio value. From this data, and the current crowd forecast —or crowdcast— we can infer the participant’s perception of the probabilities of various outcomes. We also conduct Crowdcast updates to incorporate new behavior, so your information is always accurate.
