Our method

We have developed a set of Community Design Guidelines for Crowdsourcing platforms divided into 6 main categories. These are the base of our evaluation method, workshops and the card set.

Products



These cards allow you to completely evaluate your platform, identifying certain gaps or missing features. Using the cards is the starting point of the (re)design of your platform. The focus is on making your platform act more as an online community. Research shows that the social aspect of a platform is especially important for the long time use by members. Therefore, maintaining your members to become experienced requires a social platform.
