Hit the ground running with Howspace’s drag-and-drop building blocks.
Create a dedicated workspace for your process and development initiatives. Cut out the noise so that participants can trust that they’re in the right place, with the right people, focusing only on what's most important. You can create or hide different pages to avoid distractions, guide journeys, categorize items, or separate different user groups.
Workspaces are simple to build and intuitive to use. Just drag and drop widgets in a workspace to create chats, polls, assignments, videos, meeting bookings, and much more. Participants can jump in right away—no training, installation, or logins required. Think of it like building a custom website for your program, without any complicated coding.
Howspace is a responsive, browser-based software that can be accessed from any device with internet. The versatile features make it flexible and customizable. You can easily duplicate workspaces and there is no limit to the number of users or workspaces, which makes Howspace highly scalable.
Howspace is GDPR compliant. We value your security and store all Howspace workspaces in secure data centers on dedicated servers. Rest assured that your data is secure, and can only be accessed with secure links emailed directly to users that you give access to.
With Howspace, you can involve a limitless amount of participants, regardless of time and location. This makes it easy for everyone to collaborate and be heard. Our clients typically see unprecedented participation rates between 80-95%, based on the strong involvement features and one-click access.
Howspace goes beyond instant messaging, and gives facilitators the power to actually guide a dialogue. Administrators can automate reminders based on behaviors and provide specific guidance to keep participants engaged. You can also email directly from Howspace in case you need to nudge users who haven’t provided input.
Howspace enables you to create different types of iterative dialogue where you can easily measure engagement. The social media-like design lets you vote, like, or give points to items. This helps to prioritize ideas and makes it easy to keep participants activated, while making decisions transparent.
At the core of Howspace AI is a state-of-the-art, deep learning model that is capable of highly sophisticated natural language processing.
The AI theme clustering feature lets you zoom in on important themes. It quickly divides a dialogue into meaningful categories, which are not only based on actual words but also larger themes it detects through natural language processing. These clusters, in turn, are a great starting point for deeper analysis and discussions.
It’s not uncommon to end up with dozens, if not thousands of comments and qualitative data. The AI summary feature can quickly summarize those comments into a few sentences or paragraphs, depending on your needs. This is great for providing progress updates or inspiring a company mission statement.
The intelligent word cloud feature recognizes conjugated forms, word types, and even combines word pairs. This helps you quickly visualize which words, concepts, and themes have dominated a conversation. The words are shown in different sizes in relation to how often they have been mentioned. You can click a word to filter out all comments containing that word.
The AI sentiment analysis feature helps you understand what kind of sentiments arise in the discussion. This feature recognizes comments with appreciation and concern. This can help to determine what is working and on the flipside, what topics people are concerned about, in order to identify areas of improvement.
Howspace includes a set of ready-made widgets that you can easily
