Company mission

To harness the collective brainpower of entire organisations to increase profits, drive efficiency and solve challenges.

Our take

Idea Drop is a startup that offers what it calls an “idea management” platform. The company believes that the best ideas can — and often do — come from anyone, regardless of job title or hierarchy.

Consisting of cloud-based software and a mobile app, Idea Drop is designed to help organisations and companies generate and capture new ideas. In addition, it provides features to help decide which of those ideas get put into action. Along with a modern UX and native iOS and Android apps — two things that Hunman, Idea Drop's co-founder, says gives Idea Drop the edge over legacy competitors — the software is underpinned by a ranking algorithm that scores every idea in real-time based on “social signals and interactions”. The idea is to enable the most promising ideas to automatically bubble to the surface for the attention of managers and decision-makers within an organisation.

As innovation becomes an increasingly important key strategic pillar at board-level across businesses globally, Idea Drop aspires to become the global leader in innovation management. It aims to build a beautiful experience that is not only a joy to use but has meaningful and measurable ROI for every organisation.
