Idea Submission and Progress Disclosure

This is not just an idea submission site. By disclosing the progress of your project, you convey your commitment and attract real, concrete support from people who empathize with your vision. It's a place to refine your ideas and achieve innovation together, gaining genuine collaboration, not empty advice.

The Importance of Gathering Teammates

The presence of teammates with diverse skills and perspectives is essential for the success of a new business. Instead of shouldering everything alone, collaborating with empathetic individuals and experts refines ideas and accelerates problem-solving. Penetgate provides a place for you to meet teammates who resonate with your vision and strengthen your team.

Invitation

You can directly invite specific users to your project. Invite internal and external experts, partner companies, or friends as project members and start seamless collaboration. The invitation feature helps you quickly gather necessary personnel and streamline the team-building process.

Talk Room

Dedicated chat spaces are set up for each project or theme. Real-time information sharing, brainstorming, and opinion exchange are possible, facilitating smooth communication within the team. It's ideal for focused discussions in a closed environment.

Follow

By following projects or users you're interested in, you can receive the latest updates on their activities in your timeline. This is not just for information gathering but also an expression of "support" and empathy. The follow feature forms loose connections and creates opportunities for new collaborations.

Profile Disclosure

Users can disclose their skills, experience, interests, past project history, and more. This profile information serves as crucial criteria for other users to find you and propose collaborations. It promotes self-disclosure and supports the creation of new networks and business opportunities.

Matching

AI analyzes users' skills, interests, and project needs to suggest optimal members and partner companies. You can efficiently find individuals with the desired expertise or partners who can create synergy with you. This saves the time-consuming effort of scouting and accelerates team formation.

Open Innovation Support

What is Open Innovation?

It's a management strategy that actively incorporates external knowledge, technology, and ideas, not just internal ones, to create new value. Collaboration with external parties accelerates development speed and allows for flexible adaptation to market changes. Penetgate, as a platform that promotes this open innovation, strongly supports the fusion of internal and external knowledge and resources.

Automatic Timeline Posting

When you input project progress or activities, the content is automatically posted to the timeline. This saves the effort of manual information sharing and delivers real-time updates to stakeholders and followers. As a result, the "current status" of the project is always visible, attracting quick feedback and support, and increasing the transparency of innovation.

Spreading the Word (Likes/Follows/Reposts)

"Like," "follow," and "repost" functions, similar to social media, allow for easy spreading of projects and posts. Users who empathize or are interested can widely share your activities, expanding your reach to potential collaborators and customers. This promotes information circulation, increases interest in projects, and revitalizes open communication.

Public/Private Settings

ou can fine-tune the public/private settings for project and post content. You can freely adjust the balance of open information sharing while ensuring information security, such as internal members only, specific teams, or public access. This allows you to protect highly confidential information while actively publishing content you want to promote externally.

Communication

Comments and replies to projects and posts facilitate active communication. Real-time Q&A, idea exchange, and feedback among members support rapid decision-making. Open dialogue enhances team cohesion and brings diverse perspectives and knowledge essential for innovation.

Search Hot Projects

Public projects are searchable and displayed according to users' interests and keywords. Projects with high attention or frequent updates are featured as "Hot Projects" on the top page or in specific sections, creating opportunities for more users to see them.

I Co-pilot

Automatic Initial BMC Creation

In the first step of innovation, AI analyzes the outline of your idea and automatically inputs key elements of the Business Model Canvas (such as value proposition, customer segments). This reduces the burden of creating from scratch and allows you to quickly start materializing your idea.

AI Advice

Based on project progress and input information, AI provides practical advice in real-time. For example, specific improvement suggestions for a particular BMC cell or hints on the next actions. AI acts as your "right-hand man," supporting optimal decision-making.

AI Gate Review

In the review process at each stage gate, AI provides objective evaluation data and simple reports. It comprehensively analyzes project progress, results, and challenges to support decision-making by approvers. Incorporating an AI perspective enhances the fairness and speed of reviews, enabling smooth stage progression.

Difference Report

AI compares past activity history with the current situation and automatically generates a report of the differences. This allows you to grasp "changes from the previous time," "completed tasks," and "uncompleted challenges" at a glance. It dramatically simplifies internal situation sharing and reporting to superiors, saving time and effort.

Competitive Strategy Advice

AI analyzes and provides insights for anticipating competitor countermeasures and predicting market, industry, and customer reactions.

Stage-Gate Support

What is Stage-Gate?

It's a management methodology that incrementally validates new business ideas to increase their success rate. A "gate" is set at the end of each stage to determine whether to continue the project and in what direction. This avoids wasted investment and promotes innovation efficiently while managing risks. Penetgate seamlessly implements this stage-gate process within the app, strongly supporting your endeavors.

MS-Based

Based on IMS (Innovation Management System), innovation creation processes are systematically managed. Each phase from idea generation to commercialization is standardized, eliminating reliance on individual expertise. It visualizes the organization's overall innovation activities and accelerates the PDCA cycle. Penetgate incorporates the IMS concept into the app, supporting consistent innovation promotion.

BMC-Based

Using the BMC (Business Model Canvas) as a foundation, new business ideas are clearly structured. The nine elements of a business, such as customers, value propositions, channels, and revenue streams, are visually organized. AI supports the automatic creation of the initial BMC, quickly forming a common understanding within the team. Managing with BMC-based tools allows for early detection of weaknesses in ideas and accelerates refinement.

Stage Management

Project progress is managed by dividing it into stages such as "Idea," "Validation," "Development," and "Launch." Real-time understanding of the achievement status and challenges of each stage facilitates a smooth transition to the next step. Stage management increases the overall transparency of the project, allowing all stakeholders to work efficiently towards the same goals.

Progress History Management

Records and manages project activity history and results in chronological order. Detailed information on who, when, what, and how something was done can be tracked. This makes it easy to review past decisions and changes, preventing misunderstandings within the team. Progress history is also useful for later analysis and report creation, increasing project transparency and reliability.

Tenant Management

Workspaces can be separated by company or organization, allowing for secure management of multiple teams or projects. Unique stage-gate settings and member management are possible within each tenant, making it suitable for large organizations or multiple business units. A central administrator can oversee innovation activities across all tenants, supporting strategic decision-making.

Performance Evaluation/Analysis

Innovation Weather Forecast

Based on the current project status and past data, AI predicts future risks and success probabilities. Like a weather forecast, it provides early warnings of potential challenges the project may face, allowing for proactive countermeasures. Predicting the future reduces the risks associated with highly uncertain new businesses.

Gate Passage Speed

Quantifies and visualizes the average time to pass each stage gate and how fast the current project is moving through the stages. This helps identify project bottlenecks and provides hints for efficiency improvement. Comparisons with industry averages and past success stories are also possible.

Engagement Analysis

Analyzes the frequency and quality of communication and interaction among members within a project (likes, reposts, comments, etc.). It helps understand the team's activity level and reactions to specific posts, aiding in improving communication strategies. This enhances team cohesion and the efficiency of information sharing.

Marimekko Analysis

A sophisticated analysis function that uses graphs to visually represent the relationships between multiple categorical elements. For example, it can analyze the relationship between specific customer segments, value propositions, and revenue sources from multiple angles, allowing for an intuitive understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the business model. This is useful for formulating and reviewing new business strategies.
