DECISION INTELLIGENCE · COLLABORATIVE
Make better decisions together.
Invite colleagues or experts, collect independent judgments, combine perspectives, measure consensus, and preserve a transparent record of how the group reached its decision.
THE COLLABORATIVE WORKFLOW
One decision. One transparent record.
Collaborative Decision Intelligence turns a group decision into a guided, recorded process — from defining the problem to exporting the final record. Each step is explicit so the group can see exactly how its recommendation was reached.
01
Create decision
Name the decision and its objective in a private collaborative workspace.
02
Define alternatives
List the options the group will compare.
03
Define criteria
State the factors that matter, and whether each should be higher or lower.
04
Select approach
Choose the weighting and ranking methods the group will use.
05
Invite participants
Bring in colleagues or experts under clearly defined roles.
06
Independent submissions
Each participant provides judgments without seeing others’ before the round closes.
07
Aggregate contributions
Combine individual judgments using an explicit, disclosed method.
08
Measure consensus
Show where the group agrees and where it disagrees.
09
Final group ranking
Present a defensible group recommendation with its rationale.
10
Export decision record
Preserve the full, transparent record of how the group reached its decision.
INDEPENDENT BY DEFAULT
Independent judgments first.
To reduce anchoring and conformity, participants submit their judgments independently. Other participants' judgments are not visible before a round closes. This keeps each contribution independent, and the group can still deliberate openly once the round is complete.
Reduce anchoring
No early answer dominates the group before everyone has contributed.
Reduce conformity
Participants are not silently pulled toward the most vocal view.
Preserve independence
Each contribution is collected on its own before any aggregation.
ROLES
Simple roles. Clear accountability.
Collaborative Decision Intelligence keeps V1 roles minimal so responsibility stays clear.
Owner
OWNERCreates the project, configures the decision, invites participants, opens and closes rounds, and finalizes the decision.
Participant
PARTICIPANTReviews the problem, provides independent judgments, submits a contribution, and views the group results they are permitted to see.
CONSENSUS YOU CAN EXPLAIN
Show the group where it agrees — and where it does not.
The collaborative result should be understandable to ordinary decision-makers. Technical consensus metrics may exist underneath, but the user-facing product explains them in plain language.
Illustrative example
- Group recommendation
- Supplier A
- Consensus
- 84%
- Participants
- 5 / 5 submitted
- Strongest agreement
- Reliability
- Greatest disagreement
- Cost

TRANSPARENT AGGREGATION
How individual contributions are combined is disclosed.
Collaborative Decision Intelligence does not hide behind a single opaque average. Aggregation is explicit and methodologically defensible, and the product states exactly how individual contributions were combined.
Equal participant influence
User-defined participant influence
Arithmetic aggregation where appropriate
Geometric aggregation where appropriate
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Public direction. Private decisions.
The collaborative direction is public and explainable. Individual collaborative workspaces, decisions, judgments and results remain authenticated, private and excluded from search indexing.
Public
The collaborative method and workflow are explained publicly so teams can understand the process before they start.
Private
Individual projects, participant judgments and group results live in authenticated workspaces that are never exposed through public pages or search metadata.
