Most companies lose their best ideas at the coffee machine.
Sparqbox is where employees can submit any idea, so it gets scored and answered. Because every idea deserves an answer.
From idea chaos to decision clarity.
Most companies collect ideas. Very few have a system that scores them, routes them, and makes sure every idea gets an answer.
Without Sparqbox
Ideas live everywhere. Ideas that never get an answer dry up. People stop submitting.

Sparqbox turns this into a fair and structured decision process.
Every category scores on its own terms.
Your organization sets the criteria and weights per idea category. A product innovation scores on customer need and revenue potential. A workplace initiative on wellbeing and retention. Same structured process — different evaluation lens.
Three coordinators. Same framework. Same outcome.When everyone scores against the same weighted criteria, the math speaks for itself.
Watch Sparqbox turn a conversation into a decision.
A 30-second walkthrough: submit an idea, see the AI review, score it, watch the decision fire, receive feedback. The whole loop.
Not another idea board. A decision engine.
Most alternatives collect ideas and let people vote. Sparqbox evaluates, scores, and decides.

Idea Selection in the Front-End of Innovation: A Criteria-Based Benchmarking Study
MSc Innovation Management · Dennis, Founder of Sparqbox
The scoring model, criteria groups, and weighting logic inside Sparqbox trace directly back to this research, giving the product a methodological foundation that no competitor can replicate.
Not opinions. Benchmarked across 50 companies.
Sparqbox’s scoring framework isn’t guesswork. It’s built on a year of research into how 50 different companies actually select ideas at the front-end of innovation. The criteria, the weights, the evaluation logic are all grounded in what works in the field, not what sounds good on a whiteboard.
That’s the edge: a product designed not just with good UX, but with a defensible, validated methodology at its core. When a coordinator at your company scores an idea, they’re using a framework benchmarked against the real innovation practices of companies just like yours.

What changes when every idea gets an answer.
Three things start happening in the first 30 days.
More ideas come through the front door.
Employees who used to stay quiet see their colleagues' ideas being scored, answered, and acted on. Submission volume goes up because silence stops being the safest response.
Nothing falls through the cracks.
Every submission is routed automatically, scored consistently, and gets a real decision. No more ideas lost in email threads or buried in Slack channels with no coordinator watching.
Decisions get made, not debated.
Weighted scoring against your criteria produces a number. The number produces a decision. The decision produces feedback. What used to be a committee conversation becomes a 20-minute evaluation.
The front-end of innovation becomes a more active conversation.
The front-end of innovation became a way more active topic within the company, since we started using this selection method.
Using a tool like this really shows refreshing ideas that people have been sitting on for quite some time.

I studied 50 companies to figure out why ideas don’t get built. Sparqbox is the answer.
I spent a year at TU Eindhoven benchmarking how 50 different companies select ideas. Some were great. Most were guessing. Almost none had a consistent method. The ideas that made it through weren’t always the best ones. They were the ones with the loudest sponsor.
Sparqbox is the product that tool didn’t exist, so I built it. Structured evaluation. Weighted criteria. AI doing a first review so coordinators start faster. Mandatory feedback so submitters never feel ignored. It’s the workflow I wish every company had during my research.
If your company loses good ideas at the coffee machine, I’d love to show you what a structured alternative looks like.
