Ponder

Hello IH!

My name is Ryan, I am one of three co-founders of a new research and feedback platform, Ponder.

Ponder is a marketplace for businesses and brands to receive feedback at scale. Brands create a listing with some information and a set of questions, then set the price they are willing to pay each person for their feedback.

We're starting with an invite model; so the brand will be able to browse through the available respondent provildes on the platform and send an invite asking those people to leave feedback. If the respondent is happy with the price and the amount of questions being asked, they can accept and provide their feedback. The agreed upon price is then deposited into the respondent's account.

While we are starting with two clear sides to our marketplace (brands and respondents), the longer term vision is to bring these two sides closer to the middle; anyone (not just a brand) can ask for feedback and anyone can be a respondent.

Our closed beta is almost ready; just a few finishing touches and some more testing before we send out some invites.

If you're interested in being either a respondent (geting paid for your feedback) or a requester (someone looking to receive feedback), please reach out and I'll get you on our beta list!

A new post will be coming in the next couple of days with some more details about the platform and how we approached our MVP.

Stay tuned!
