Looks good and works pleasantly! I feel like there should be a way to 'Skip' cards, as I don't always have enough knowledge about a field to give feedback on the idea.
@fishsander Yes this is quite critical. If I'm not interested on a particular idea or if I don't have enough background on the idea, I'm often tempted to click "Nope" and sadly the vote is counted as "BAD" idea which might look discouraging for the pitcher
@_bigblind for now, you just can contact the other person if there is a help offer, not on feedback. We'll have a look into this, because in your case it would be very useful.
@lailo_ch Another issue at the moment, is that just a vote count can be tricky to interpret. I got 48 upvotes, and 44 downvotes. To what extent do the people who like it, like it, and why do the people who dislike it, dislike it? I only got one piece of feedback, which is a question about how it works. I created my card hours ago, so I can't edit it to answer that question for future viewers. Would it be a good idea to archive this card, and try to create a new one with an improved description? Is that the kind of iterative process you want to encourage?
@_bigblind We discussed a lot about the edit functionality. The conclusion about it was, that we added a 15min time window to fix small typos. In your case, the description seems to not explain the idea good enough (feedback as questions). So you might need to archive this card and publish a new one with a description which answers the questions inside the feedback.
Do you think there is a better way to solve this problem?
Pitchcard was released a couple of weeks ago β a very light version of its idea and got amazing feedback from the community. They decided to keep going and developed a marketplace of ideas. There is no need anymore to test new technologies and skills on todo apps. Find cool ideas and collaborate with others to create useful things.
@danistefanovic Thank you for hunting PItchcard! People wanted it, and they got it!
We made:
- A Explore Section where you can find other peopleβs ideas.
- Apart from voting and sending your feedback, now you can offer your help to build an idea!
- Sign up is really easy! Use your Facebook or Twitter account.
Who knows, you may help to build the Next Big Thing!
@danistefanovic I initially didn't see the Tinder style voting on a single idea when I went to your Explore section, and misunderstood the single card I saw there to mean that you only had one pitch currently on the entire site. In my interpretation of the word 'explore', I thought I was going to see a lot more than just a single pitch at a time, and the current design could turn people off because they don't realize how many other pitches are waiting on the site. Maybe a counter and some kind of 'recent/trending/top' pitches sidebar?
@joostschuur thank you for your feedback! Yes, you are right, we will add a next button visible when exploring cards to let people know that there are more ideas and a counter. Actually you can see the counter but only we you are logged in.
Good idea. I find that 200 characters are not enough to explain the problem *and* the solution.
This limit forces you to pick one or the other, resulting on a problem with no solution, or a solution with no context. A cap at ~350 would be better.
(e.g : https://www.pitchcard.io/c/SytvHPtP )
@theoblochet thanks for your feedback! We believe that every good idea needs to be pitched in 2β3 sentences. And this is only possible if you exactly know what the goal of your idea is. This limit makes people get to the point. Think about it as an advertising, there you have a few chars as well π
@susu__garcia sure, it can work. But a framework where you can talk about *problem* and *solution* would be great. You might be right : I deleted my original pitch and wrote it a few times over, and managed to fit it within 2 or 3 sentences :)
@susu__garcia@theoblochet I felt it's very restricting as well. Any ideas should describe the problem it is solving. 200 chars is not enough to describe the problem & the idea IMO.
@selvagsz@theoblochet i see your point but if we allow very long descriptions, users won't read and interact with it as much as they do with short descriptions.
I remember when you first launched this web app (back when it was solely base on 1:1 feedback), you said that you would be making an explore section and you delivered ! Kudos to you for keeping your word π. I'm really happy to see you here again, I have one question though, can you please explain how do I get the next card? Seems to me like it's random.
@susu__garcia Maybe add something like a category section in the submission form (leave it as a simple input until you get enough categories?) and then sorting would be based on that + the time? Also, don't get me wrong (I really don't want to jinx it) but there's a feature which, *I think*, is crucial that is missing: "Delete your account" since it gives the user the feeling of being in control which is honestly quite important for a good UX. On another note, I think that your platform is so simple that it can be used by anyone (who have the patience) and not only entrepreneurs or tech people.
@karimdaghari sure! Deleting user account it's a really good input! We didn't do it yet because of a lack of time, but we will do it. π We've already thought about the categories as well, it's definitely in our road map as Pitchcard is a platform for everyone and not just tech people. Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it!
It would be really helpful, If I can have a metrics report of downvotes and upvotes across the site, then, I can easily measure my idea is good enough for me.
Love the product. Just one question, it seems that it's necessary for me to either upvote/downvote every card that pops up. It might help to have a skip button too ? for the neutrals. I might not always like/dislike the idea but would have to click either to see more ideas.
Love it. Great idea. Have you guys considered adding a reddit/PH-like list view where users can upvote and downvote ideas? The cards are great, but it would be nice to see multiple ideas at a glance...
@tomstocklein we are working on this but the big challenge is that you need title and a long description to be able to vote. If we show all this information at once, people will get a bit lost in too much information. But no worries, we will find a solution βΊοΈ
I like it and wish we could have an app for it instead of a responsive website. , I think it could be great to get the stats about the upvotes or downvotes once you express yourself about an idea.
